It is one doctor's office and the staff knows every patient. We are open everyday and take care of calls in person right away. We never closed for covid and we will not ever close. I offer in person , facetime, zoom or phone appointments.
We have no waiting time for new patients or follow ups. We can see any patient right away on an emergency basis. When you call you get a live person to schedule your appointment.
We don't need a special referral unless you have HMO insurance. We all have Epic access so we pull up the chart and print any report I need for any patient.
I practice general neurology. My special interests are migraine/headaches, memory loss/dementia, trauma/concussion and stroke syndromes. I also manage first time seizures, Multiple Sclerosis, and movement disorders like Parkinson disease and neuropathy. I have been practicing for 25 years non stop now and I am very experienced in general neurology.
I read EEGs, do EMG for nerve and muscle disorders and Botox. My patients who need these procedures don't need to be referred to other doctors to do them. I can provide these procedures myself so the care is more straightforward and time saving.
I have access to every doctor and I know every practice in town so I can easily refer for a homeopathic approach, acupuncture or chiropractor or CBD practice when needed.
We are easy to access by patients. They email me or call and we answer them back the same day. We do authorizations the same day. I am very proud that patients get the good old care they used to rather than waiting for response for many days.
I cover both hospitals in Marin, I cover my own patients when they are admitted even when I am not on call so this helps their continuity of care. No other neurologist offers this. Many patients get a new work up unnecessarily when someone new sees them.
My new EHR is more comprehensive so my notes are now more complete and covers everything I discuss with the patients. We fax my notes right away to referring physicians.
