Default UBuffalo Concussion Clinic: worth traveling for?

I'm an athlete suffering from PCS for just under a year now.

After about the good results obtained at the University of Buffalo Concussion Clinic, I'm considering become a patient.

I live quite far away, though, and I'm wondering if it's worth traveling for.

Specifically, I am wondering if there's anything more to their protocol than simply determining the heart rate at which your symptoms appear, and then exercising at some increasing fraction of this over time.

At the moment, it sounds like this is something I can do on my own with my doctor and athletic trainer's supervision.

I know it sounds like I'm asking for the Caramilk secret, but it really is an issue of money (or lack of it) and travel (long distance travel exacerbates symptoms) for me.

I'd love to hear your experience with this clinic. Thanks!
