Thank you so much for this article Student Doctor Seely! Thank you Dr. Fazzio for sharing your matching into neurology story! I’m taking notes :) Mar. 1, 2022, at 6:24 pm Reply
Thanks to Dr. Fazzio and SD Seely for this article. Much familiar territory. Although, I took a different path to NEUROLOGY. Became enamored with the nervous system during 2nd year of Osteopathic training in integrative anatomy, pathology, physiology and pharmacology of the nervous system. Graduated, did a rotating internship and practiced Family Medicine and taught at the local medical school for 7 years before deciding to go back. I obtained acceptance at the University of Kansas Department of Neurology,where I completed a 3-yr program in General Neurology and a one yr. post graduate fellowship in Neurophysiology.(PS I was also accepted at UC -Davis for Neurology). I practiced (Joyfully) Neurology for over 45 years….It was worth every moment of school,residency and fellowship.!! And I would do it ALL over again!!!! Mar. 31, 2022, at 9:06 pm Reply
Yup, I agree with what you explained about how hiring a neurologist with reputable referrals is always a beneficial strategy. My father-in-law has been suffering from prolonged headache for almost a month now and he’s desperate for an intensive treatment already. I’ll book an appointment on his behalf immediately so he can have a speedy recovery. https://drjaylombard.com/neurologist Apr. 12, 2022, at 3:43 am Reply
