Default Treatment Centers/Clinics

Might be helpful to others list any good Doctors/or Clinics you have had help from.

I am still looking for a good clinic/doctor to see in Toronto, Canada if any of you know any from previous experience Let me know.

You could check out Concussions Ontario at http://concussionsontario.org/
They are affiliated with Ontario NeuroTrauma Foundation. ONF is on top of the latest about concussions.

Mayo Clinic - Brain Rehabilitation Clinic

http://www.mayoclinic.org/tests-proc...t/prc-20022302

I went to them as an outpatient. They are very thorough with some the best doctors in the nation.

Default Sticky Thread

This sounds it could be a great sticky thread and a tremendous help to those who suffer from PCS.

Perhaps the admins could list on Neurotalk's homepage doctor/clinic sections by state?

I know that in my state of Massachusetts if I saw a some doctors that covered my area (Boston isn't easy to get in and out of from where I live) it would have been a huge help.

Right now I'm still looking for a Neurologist with a decent knowledge of PCS and its been almost a year!

Boston has many good concussion clinics at places like Deaconess, Brigham and Womens, Mass General, Dr Robert Cantu in Concord. Google concussion and Boston.

Default Thanks

Thanks Mark. If I could do it again I would go with Beth Israel. Finding a neurologist experienced with PCS outside of the city is tough. There is Cantu in Concord but that is still pretty far.

Mass General has a location closer to me but they only have a neurologist visit like once a week/month or something like that. I didn't push for more info. Perhaps I should of in this case.

My PCP recommended someone and I have an appt but his nurse said this could be a "start" for what I was looking for. I don't have a lot of faith with this appt so far but I could be surprised.
