Kester J. NeddD.O.
Traumatic brain injury, concussion, and neurological rehabilitation
When someone suffers a brain injury, the questions come quickly. How serious is it? What will recovery look like? Who will guide us through it? Dr. Kester Nedd has spent more than three decades answering those questions for patients and families.
Dr. Nedd cares for people at every stage after a brain injury — from the first days after a concussion to the long, careful work of rehabilitation after a severe injury. His approach reflects the philosophy at the heart of Design Neuroscience Center: recovery from a neurological injury isn't a single appointment, it's a journey, and patients do best when one team follows them through all of it. He also evaluates and treats a broad range of general neurological conditions.
