Matthew Mccarthy Email & Phone Number

I am a board-certified in pediatric neurologist with additional fellowship training in sports neurology and concussion. I have expertise in managing acute concussion, post-concussion syndrome, and other neurological conditions in athletes of all ages and levels of competition. I specialize in using an active and individualized approach to symptomatic treatment and rehabilitation after concussion to ensure a safe and efficient return to sports and other activities. As a sports neurologist, I am focused on long term athlete brain health and promoting safe and lifelong sports participation.I use a comprehensive and individualized approach to patient care that values involving the patient in decision making every step of the way. In addition to acute and ongoing treatment, I also emphasize prevention and establishing healthy lifestyle habits. I am passionate about the importance of physical activity and sports participation for children as a staple of a healthy lifestyle and am an advocate for long-term athlete brain health and working to promote safe and lifelong sports participation. When treating sport-related neurological injuries, I believe it is critical to consider the benefits and significance sports can play in a person’s life in addition to the risks.
