Sacramento, CA, November 09, 2011 --(PR.com)-- On Sunday, November 20th, Paul Martin’s American Bistro will host a fundraiser to benefit Sutter Health’s Pediatric & Adult Epilepsy Support Program in recognition of National Epilepsy Awareness Month. Come into Paul Martin’s Roseville restaurant on Nov. 20 and mention “Sutter Epilepsy,” and Paul Martin’s American Bistro will donate 20 percent of your check to Sutter’s Health Pediatric & Adult Epilepsy Program.

Since 1991, the Comprehensive Epilepsy Center at Sutter Medical Center has been dedicated to caring for children and adults with epilepsy and helping those with epilepsy-like spells determine causes and solutions. The center's staff includes epileptologists (physicians specializing in epilepsy), pediatric and adult neurosurgeons, neuro nursing staff, and a 24-hour staff of monitoring technicians. The multidisciplinary team works together, evaluating the patient's seizures, diagnosing causes and deciding on the most meaningful treatment approach. The team also includes patients, loved ones and referring doctors, who play critical roles in bringing about the best possible outcomes for each patient's long-term well being.

Sutter Pediatric Epilepsy is committed to bringing state-of-the-art care to children with epilepsy both locally in Northern California and nationally. Currently, Sutter is working to provide the initiation of its Epilepsy Inpatient Unit and offering the most pediatric epilepsy monitoring units for video EEG in Northern California. In addition, this year Sutter Pediatric Epilepsy Program is bringing a new less-invasive surgical technique using laser guided surgery, one of only 20 centers in the United States. Clinical research and psychological testing is also offered for patients. Surgical and pharmacological intervention studies are constantly being evaluated in their clinical programs. They also offer a parent support group.

Paul Martin’s American Bistro is open 10am-9pm on the 20th, and serves brunch, lunch and dinner. The organic restaurant features award-winning seasonal cuisine, sourced from local farmers and purveyors promoting sustainability. True to their belief of "Eat organic. Believe in sustainable. Buy local. Love fresh" Paul Martin’s is committed to using the best local, all-natural ingredients with peak-of-the-season freshness.

Join with Paul Martin’s American Bistro to help make a difference on Nov. 20, and support this incredible program.
