D. Mortz Inspirational Award
est. 2002

doctor who is technically up to date, and who cares about your suffering and the suffering of your family. If the doctor does not have special expertise and appropriate credentials in head injury, find someone who does.

    You will want to find someone who will trust you and help you to identify and manage your own impairments. Not every doctor is willing to allow you this kind of freedom and support. Before anything else is settled, tell the doctor specifically what you want. If the doctor is unwilling to cooperate with you, keep looking until you find the right one for you.
