Our Approach
We believe healthcare shouldn't be rushed.
Brain Beat Neurology is a unique, boutique neurology practice focusing on neuroscience and extensive time with patients, rather than administration. With face-to-face time with doctors often limited to 15 minutes or less, patients are often left feeling rushed when asking questions or misunderstood when they don't have time to fully share their individual experiences with their healthcare provider. At Brain Beat Neurology, we are restoring the art of medicine with patient-focused healthcare and the most in-depth, comprehensive consultations in the Orlando area.
Brain Beat Explained
Our bodies have heart beats, and our brains beat with a so called “heart beating at the center of the brain” resulting in the growth of new brain cells (neurogenesis) and the growth of connections between brain cells (synapses), triggered by activities and pruning of synapses during sleep. Learn more about the titular Brain Beat theory and book on our Brain Beat Explained page.
Our Practice Details
Neurology is a complex and challenging field of medicine with diagnostic accuracy critical to correct treatment. Treatment related discussions, different management options, preventative and holistic medical care all are key to successful management. For this reason, my new patient appointment times are 1.5 hours and follow-up times are 45 minutes in duration.
