I get it. When I tell people I guide concussion recovery 100% virtually, the immediate question is: “But how?! Is that even legit? 🤨🧐”

The biggest misconception in concussion support is that a virtual consult is “less than.” The truth is, most in‑person visits often leave you frustrated—with a vague label, no clear next steps, or a specialist referral booked weeks to months out (think: you’re seen in March, but your first neuro‑ophthalmology slot isn’t until May or June).

My multi‑domain virtual framework isn’t “less than”—it’s actually the most precise, targeted way (so far) to design your recovery strategy. Together, we skip the guesswork by mapping out your 5 core Symptom Generators.

I started this work just before the pandemic — and it reshaped everything. From patient care to teaching to admin, I’ve now gone 100% virtual (by popular demand, so to speak). The next 5 years? I hope for even more wisdom to share. 🤙

👉Comment “recover” if you’re ready to explore concussion/PCS recovery with me. Surprising things happen when you look under the right rocks - even from home, even on Zoom.🙏❤️🧠

From yesterday's newsletter:

Pennywise. Michael Myers. Freddy. Jason. The Boogeyman.

All of these are "external" bad guys.

Do you treat your concussion injury like an external bad guy? If so, what does a sample of 91 Canadians suggest about that type of thinking?

Earlier today, I made the official announcement through my newsletter and Practice Better EHR:
My practice will be 100% virtual starting in 2026.

Here’s the deal:
👉If I’m being honest, it’s not something I fully wanted to do. But since that fun time called “the pandemic,” my practice has averaged about 70% virtual care.

👉And, also… Arthur Brooks describes the ideal emotional mix for making a significant change as “80% excitement + 20% fear + 0% deadness.” That’s exactly where I’m at.

I already see so many of you virtually — why not lean in and see where this takes me? I can always find an office space later. But this might be a way to help more people, free up time with my family, and make the world healthier on purpose in a more mobile way for both of us. That’s (80%) exciting to me.

Key dates:
• Nov 14 — last day for new in-person patients in Scottsdale
• Dec 18 — final day of in-person care for 2025–2026

TBD: I may still offer 1–2 week “intensives” out of an office space, similar to how folks have traveled from across the country (and world) to see me over the past five years. If that gets established, you’ll hear about it through email, social, and my EHR.

Life is a game. Thank God I get to play it.
Thanks for playing with me.

Let’s get healthy on purpose 🤙❤️

Comment “neck” to chat 🤝❤️🧠

So many folks I’ve seen over the years (who have been dealing with symptoms for years) were simply missing a legit neck assessment.

In the office I use the for assessment, and tools like , , and more to get folks back to school/work or elite sports performance. 🤙

Comment “baseline” to learn how to protect yourself, your kiddos, or your team. 🤝🧠

Is your child heading back to contact sports soon? Is the "baseline test" simply sitting in a room with a computer for ~15min?

Cool cool cool. That's not a concussion baseline test.
