Heatherr,

Be careful with the amount of trust you put in the 'concussion specialist.' This specialty has popped up in recent years in response to sports teams' need to get a sign-off before an athlete returns to play. These concussion specialists often have no more training than a weekend seminar or two put on by the ImPACT Computerized Neurocognitive Testing people or another CNT program.

They are better than most PCPs but not by much.
