The power of individualized, patient-centered healthcare
Maybe you’re experiencing joint pain or having difficulty remembering things, so you do what most people would do – visit your doctor. Your doctor asks you some questions and performs some exams. Then, they diagnose you and prescribe medication. The medication helps. You don’t feel 100 percent like yourself, but your symptoms have improved, and […]

Finding freedom with a health and life coach
When health challenges stand in the way of the life you want, are you prepared to face that hurdle on your own? When your brain or body is not working the way it should, are you able to get yourself back on track without help? Have you read countless books about health and well-being, but […]

Redefining Alzheimer’s disease
Alzheimer’s has no cure. That’s what many of the 6.2 million Americans living with the disease have come to accept, but it’s only one side of the story. Alzheimer’s has a pre-clinical stage of one to two decades. Suppose neurologists like myself could diagnose healthy, young, and cognitively normal individuals without symptoms in that pre-clinical stage. […]

Alzheimer’s disease, biomarkers, and the future of biology-based diagnoses
Medical technology evolves rapidly, but many healthcare professionals continue to use outdated and one-dimensional diagnostic tools. These often fail to detect neurological conditions like Alzheimer’s disease in their early stages, preventing life-changing intervention and treatment. In this article, I’ll discuss my clinic’s research into new diagnostic tools and treatments that leverage biomarkers to facilitate early […]

What to expect from your nerve conduction and electromyography tests
You can’t treat it if you don’t know the cause. Nerve conduction and electromyography are two really powerful diagnostic tests I use in the first pillar of my unique Five-Pillar system – Identify. It’s only natural to feel a little nervous about these tests. Who wants to submit to an electrical shock or a needle […]

Why nerve conduction and electromyography testing matter to your health journey
“This patient needs an EMG.” It’s something I say to my nurses all the time, but from a patient’s perspective, it might be a little confusing. Let’s take a closer look at EMG testing, starting with the why. This article continues my series on diagnostic testing in neurology, which applies to both conventional neurology, functional, […]

What Can a Spinal Fluid Examination Tell Us?
So, you’ve scheduled a spinal fluid examination. You’re a little concerned about the procedure itself (don’t be – it’s a very routine process that’s only slightly more involved than your standard blood test), and you want to know what, exactly, you can find out from your results. I’ve been a neurologist for over two decades, […]

Spinal Fluid Examinations: What to Expect
I’ve been practicing as a neurologist and medical doctor since the early 1990s, and I’ve done thousands of spinal fluid examinations. I know the procedure sounds painful and high-risk, but trust me, it’s anything but. Spinal fluid examinations, or lumbar punctures, as I sometimes call them (I avoid the phrase ‘spinal tap,’ as it isn’t […]

The Unique Five-Pillar System that Delivers Life-Changing Results
You are familiar with the conventional process. You see a doctor. They diagnose your condition, and you are prescribed medication to treat your brain or nervous system. It works – to an extent. But as soon as you stop taking your medicine, all of your symptoms come back full-force. It’s a band-aid solution – temporary […]
