To achieve this aim and best serve you, I believe the best practice model and setting at this time is a micropractice. This involves:

1. Easy and direct access to me - All messages and correspondences would be directly with me. Messages generally would come at no additional cost, but some time consuming paperwork (e.g. FMLA/disability forms, accommodations letters) will require a small charge. 

2. Direct care (self pay, but with possible private insurance reimbursement) - To minimize administrative costs and maximize transparency of the value of services, this is a cash only practice (cash, check, credit/debit). I will provide receipts and clinical documentation directly to you. Flexible spending accounts (FSA), health savings accounts (HSA), and health reimbursement arrangements (HRA) connected to credit/debit cards can be used to pay for these appointments (or for you to apply for reimbursement after the appointment). For major insurers in Massachusetts, I will provide partially prefilled Out of Network Reimbursement forms to aid you if you wish to submit these to your health insurer for reimbursement.

3. Personalized time tables - Some people would benefit from frequent visits over the first 1-3 years post-stroke, whereas others may prefer a "tune-up" every 6-12 months. Most appointments will be 60 minutes in duration, but there will be flexibility to have shorter appointments (30 minutes) with discrete goals. I am happy and willing to help you at the frequency that makes sense to you and is financially and logistically feasible.

4. Leveraging a network of clinicians, therapy modalities, and technologies - I have an established network of clinician colleagues who provide advanced recovery services (e.g. spasticity management, nerve-tendon surgeries, neurostimulator implantation, music therapy, etc.) and prescription/referral pathways for specific treatments and technologies that I can bring to your individualized recovery plan. 

Important notice for patients enrolled in Medicare and MassHealth (Medicaid): Medicare and Medicaid do not allow clinicians to accept direct payments from patients. Since this is a direct care (self pay) clinic, I usually cannot see patients on Medicare or Masshealth (Medicaid) at this clinic, unless they have a sponsor who can cover the cost of the visit (or part of the cost, if the patient qualifies for a Headway Neurology scholarship). Patients with Medicare or Masshealth (Medicaid) are always eligible to see me at my hospital-based clinic.

How do I get started?

To schedule an appointment:

Step 1: Review the ASR Page and Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) first.

Step 2: If you're comfortable doing so, pre-pay for your visit at the link in the navigation bar above (preferred).

Step 3: Fill out your Patient Intake Forms (New Patient click this link, Follow-up/Established Patient click this link).

Step 4: Schedule an appointment (matching the duration you pre-paid or the amount you plan to pay for at the start of the visit) using Google Calendar. You will be given a link to the Booking Page when you complete the Patient Intake Form.

Step 5: Obtain any relevant medical records and imaging studies (brain and blood vessel imaging studies, aka CT, MRI, CTA, CTV, MRA, MRV). Mail them to Headway Neurology at the address below or bring them to your visit. If you provide me with the hospital name/practice and dates you received care there, I will also place a request to receive those records (at no cost to you).
