Best neurology programs

[Crazy Carl]

Pretty straightforward question...US News aside, what schools do you think have the best neurology programs?

I think the US News ranking is thrown off by the fact that they consider neurosurgery and neurology as one field. For example, the UF neurology dept has been struggling recently but they have an incredible neurosurgery dept. The result is a very respectable rating in US News.
From talking to some of the younger faculty the schools I have been told to look into are UVA, Rush, Henry Ford, Iowa, Mayo, Mt. Sinai, Michigan, UCSF... I'm sure I'm leaving some out but that's a start.

Even so, I'm surprised that none of the big-time ivy league schools are on your list...
