Meet Our Core Clinical Faculty

The department's attending staff consists of 4 board-certified brain injury specialists, and 4 neuropsychologists. Many members of this department were previously residents in this program. Some pursued postgraduate opportunities elsewhere and have returned to practice at Corewell Health.

A major strength of this program is the stability and diversity of the faculty, thereby providing an extremely stable environment within which the fellows thrive.
