And also might have been having absence seizures (?) She spent a long time interviewing me, longer than the 15 minutes that the appointment was supposed to last. She took a complete history, asking thoughtful questions. She was sensitive and considerate of my other medical conditions. She did an extensive physical examination. She told me to get an EEG, and after I had that done I went back to see her again, at which point she made recommendations as to how I could solve the problem. I saw her a few times, but now I won't be going back anymore because, thanks to her, my pseudoparkinsonism is all gone.

I recently met with Dr. Paul Jackson to discuss my ongoing spine related issue. The idea was to…read moreunderstand medical intervention options and get his expert opinion on whether a surgery is warranted for this condition. He was very forthcoming and answered my questions and concerns satisfactorily. The most important aspect of this interaction was that he was to the point and pragmatic in his view of the situation. He didn't try to scare me or influence me in any way. He simply laid out the facts of the matter and said that it is upto me to decide whenever I feel that my situation is affecting my quality of life. He explained the procedure and any risks involved and allayed any concerns that I had about this particular procedure. The check-in at the Sutter facility in Palo Alto was smooth. They do seem to enforce masks during the visit which, in my opinion, is a very prudent thing to do these days! I didn't have to wait long after the check-in and also didn't have to wait more than 5min for Dr. Jackson after the assistant added my details to their system in the exam room.

He gives his patients a realistic view of what a proposed procedure can and cannot accomplish. He explains all the possible upsides and downsides. He is not a marketer. He does not over promise. My wife had truly excruciating pain from a herniated disc. It was debilitating. We tried all alternatives to surgery including steroid injections. Opioid pain killers were ineffective. In short, nothing worked. Paul Jackson proposed a microdiscectomy. He predicted a good chance of pain relief, but was less optimistic about nerve recovery. Yesterday he performed the operation at Sequoia Hospital in Redwood City. My wife had an incredibly good outcome. Her horrible pain is completely gone. ZERO pain one day post op. She's walking around pain free just like she did before the disc herniated. Before the surgery, she couldn't even walk a few steps without horrible pain. Some numbness remains as predicted but it's manageable. We are so grateful to Dr. Jackson. He has given my wife her active life back.

As a result of the extraordinary care I received from Dr.Phillip Wasserstein I have a new lease on life. I am finally on the road to recovery. Thank you, kind sir. Truett CV

Dr. Wasserstein changed my life…read more In eighth grade I had a gran mal seizure. Full on unconscious, frothing at the mouth gnarliness. No underlying cause could be found and I haven't had one since, but after that I started having these small "episodes" where my muscles would tighten uncontrollably when I started to walk or run. Unless I stopped and/or leaned on something, I would fall over. It would last for 5-10 seconds and then go away. The neurologists I saw in New Jersey, where I grew up, didn't know what was happening except that I had irregular EEG (brain-wave scan) results. They said it seemed seizure related, but it wasn't epilepsy. They prescribed phenobarbital which helped the EEGs become normal, but didn't do anything for my symptoms at all. At least I could get hopped up on barbiturates, if I was so inclined (I wasn't). I came out to California for college and a couple years in I decided to see a Neurologist at Stanford to see if they had any ideas. At that time, Dr. Wasserstein was heading the Motion Disorders Clinic at Stanford, though as you can see from the listing, he has since moved to the Palo Alto Medical Foundation. I described my symptoms. He nodded and said, "It sounds like you have PKC (Huh?!?) or Paroxysmal Kinesigenic Choreoathetosis. ([slaps forehead] Of course!!) It's a movement disorder. Not very common, but I've seen several patients with it . . ." Yada, yada, yada. Long story short. He ran some tests (sleep deprived EEG's are the bomb) and changed my meds and I haven't had an episode since!! (well as long as I don't forget to take them (Bad, Andrew!!)) That was 17 years ago. Now I don't have to take awkward pauses when I start to walk and have to explain why over and over again to quizzical friends and acquaintances or keel over in a crosswalk whilst grabbing a random person next to me for support (it's happened). Wooo hooo!!! Sometimes seeing a specialist isn't enough. You need to find the specialty within the specialty. Motion Disorders? Who knew? Thanks Dr. Wasserstein!!

For a long time, we…read moreassumed the struggles were "normal," but by sophomore year of high school things became truly miserable. We didn't know what to do or how to help. Finding Neuropsych Kids changed everything. The care, attention, and insight Dr. Aronowitz provided gave our family a whole new understanding of who our child is as a learner and as a person. Instead of focusing only on what wasn't working, they helped us see the strengths and guided us with practical, meaningful recommendations. For the first time, our child felt understood and supported in a way that gave them confidence to define their own path. I can't recommend Dr. Aronowitz enough. When my child's school saw the report, they were blown away and said they had never seen anything so comprehensive. And my teen liked her(!). This week, we are sending our child off to college --to a program that is the right fit and one that they are genuinely excited about. Dr. Aronowitz has continued to provide support in this part of the learning journey as well, helping to line up the right accommodations for our child to be successful in university studies. We truly believe this journey would not have been possible without the clarity, compassion, and expertise we received here. Dr. Aronowitz gave our family hope and helped open the door to a much brighter future. I truly wish that all children could have access to this kind of assessment early in their educational experience; it makes all the difference.

Dr Jen's assessment was so comprehensive, and truly helped us to better understand our kiddo (both his challenges but also, his strengths!!) She works so well with young kids (our kiddo really enjoyed his sessions!) but also, she's so thorough -- both in the information she gets from us as parents, from teachers, and even other medical professionals (Dr Jen met with TWO of our kid's support team, to make sure she had the right information to form a complete perspective.) The final report was so detailed! Tons of data but also, thorough explanation. In our review meeting, she really took the time to talk through it with us, to make sure we understood it and had the opportunity to ask (a million!) questions. Her recommendations were very helpful and are giving us great next steps to help our kiddo. Genuinely, we can't recommend her highly enough.
