Default NYC TBI specialist recommendations

Hello -

I didn't see any "guidelines" but maybe that's my ADD missing it in the signup process. I'm also intentionally being vague about my history and symptoms because this is a public, googleable forum and I don't want this to impact my high powered career.

History of add (diagnosed in childhood). Some mTBI, 3-4 sports accidents starting in adulthood where I banged my head (thankfully I was wearing a helmet), never lost conciousness, but lots of headaches. Got to point where even shaking (like a bumpy car ride) triggered lengthy headaches. Had headaches for years. Saw neurologists but best I got was uh shaking can't cause TBI, take amitriptyline, and don't hit your head. Why does it hurt, weird pains can happen it's fine.

Finally headache free, but still noticing some strange cognitive symptoms:
- worsening aphasia (what's that word again). Always had this but it seems...worse.
- short term memory gets wiped easily and add symptoms are stronger (I see a spanish word, brain goes hey that's like french, then I think that's a french word and say no that's the wrong word I meant to think spanish).
- Don't finish thoughts before moving to the next.

Normally I wouldn't worry, but since I had headaches for YEARS, a specialist seems in order. Anybody have any recommendations?
