Thanks for tuning in this week as we continue our safety series with Deepak Patel, a Medical Doctor, concussion and sports medicine expert. The podcast would like to thank our producer, Mark McFarlane’s wife Andi for arranging the interview. We dispel outdated information about concussions, talk about baseline testing, and detail what exactly takes place in the brain.
Deepak Patel, MD offers baseline testing for athletes five years and older. He uses the latest technology including ImPACT (Immediate Post-Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing) and Sway to provide his patients with the most comprehensive concussion care. Baseline tests provide useful information to help assist Dr. Patel in making sound return to play decisions following concussions.
