Neurologists

• Autism
  Dr. Brennan was and is fantastic!!! So is his NP who helped us with follow up Post Op appointments. Both were thorough, patient and kind. Dr. Brennan ‘got it’ in terms of performing surgery on my son who has both Down syndrome and Autism. Honestly, my only suggestions for improvement would be accessing the office and waiting with a kid like my son. It was a LONG walk from the parking lot for anyone but especially someone who recently had surgery (suite was under construction). The bathroom was outside the office suite which presented challenges with my son who wanted to wander and explore (and we needed to limit his mobility).I would highly recommend Dr. Brennan and would not hesitate to refer him and his team to a friend.
