Default Level 4 Epilepsy Center - What to Expect?

I've had Neurological problems since the day I was born and the Hospital (where I was born) began treating me in 1963, and didn't really press on until 1966, when Shands Hospital (Gainesville) laid out the "foundation" (plan). For generations I have spent more time under the sun than I care to know, and I've seen the progression and changes in the Neurology Department as well as the Other Departments ~ as well as the decline of the genetic/inherited Neurological problem I have (I'm adopted).

It has gotten to a point that I've progressed from a Regular Neurologist to a Level 2, Level 3 ... and now they're pushing me into a Level 4 Epilepsy Center.

My Concern Lies Here:

My Problem isn't all Epilepsy - Epilepsy is a small part of the problem but not all of it. While I've spoken with the Level 4 Center they've assured me that they deal with other Neurological Disorders, but they do not answer all my questions.

I do have a conference shortly with my Doctors about heading this direction.
I'm not exactly "thrilled" - about heading this direction.

What can I expect from a LEVEL 4 CENTER?

Anyone ever been to a LEVEL 4 CENTER?
