"I was so relieved that it wasn't a concussion and I was so thankful that we had his baseline on file to compare his results to, so that we could know for sure that his brain was okay. His primary physician could never have done this for us. I highly recommend the Kutcher Clinic. They are experts in concussion for sure! Very thorough! Don't trust your kid's brain to any other office!"

"I suffer from brutal peripheral neuropathy. The staff spent quality time, first understanding the source of the debilitating pain, and then worked towards a solution that leveraged minimal prescription medication. Ryan Pelo is a dry needling specialist who has implemented a therapy regimen that has literally undone my suffering. I’ve been to the Mayo Clinic, the Cleveland clinic, and the UCLA Medical Center. World, renowned facilities. And I’ve achieved nowhere near the pain relief that I’ve achieved at Kutcher clinic."
- J. Dagostino

"We visited Michigan to get my son in front of you folks. I have described the visit as potentially "life changing" for my son. The meeting that I sat in on was one of the most passionate displays of information sharing that I have ever been a part of. No stone was left un-turned in the pursuit of understanding, evaluation, and feedback. You folks are outstanding, from the front desk, to the doctors, and those in between. Thank you.

WHAT IS SPORTS NEUROLOGY?
Sports neurology is a subspecialty of neurology focused on the study and management of sports-related neurological injuries and conditions in athletes. Sports neurology involves the safe participation in sports and recreation by athletes that suffer from neurological injuries including: concussion, post-concussion syndrome and peripheral nerve injuries and conditions including: epilepsy, migraine and multiple sclerosis. Sports neurology has a deep understanding of the neurological benefits of exercise and active lifestyles.
A sports neurologist is a physician that has completed four years of medical school, three-four years of neurology residency and at least one year of a sports neurology fellowship. Sports neurologists are specifically trained in the diagnosis and management of neurological conditions in athletes. In addition to their level of knowledge in the exam room, they are also trained to care for athletes in their natural sporting environments - on the ice, snow, field and court.
