Seeing Dr. Antonucci was a turning point in addressing my son’s struggles. Having previously attended the Carrick Institute's Concussion Boot Camp with Dr. Antonucci in Florida, I was confident he could help us. Dr. Antonucci has an exceptional talent for identifying underlying issues and building a foundation for improvement. He revealed layers of dysfunction we hadn’t realized existed and connected many dots from my son’s past symptoms.
My son’s vestibular system was found to be the underlying problem, like many concussions, but Dr. Antonucci was able to bring everything together very quickly, promoting lasting changes. The progress my son made within just 24 hours was remarkable. By the end of five days, he had improved in numerous ways. Before seeing Dr. Antonucci, my son had a noticeable limp or catch in his step with running and struggled to ride a scooter without frequently having to regain his balance. Now, he runs smoothly and rides his scooter steadily.
When it comes to someone’s health, especially your child’s, there is no investment too great. Yes, it is a cash pay service, but it is worth every penny. When I asked my son his thoughts on going to see Dr. Antonucci, he told me, “I’m glad I went to see him because he helped figure out what was wrong so I could be the best me that I can be. If I had to do it over again, I definitely would.”
We are forever grateful for Dr. Antonucci’s kindness, expertise, and genuine care. If you are considering seeing him, don’t hesitate. Make the appointment. If anyone can help, it’s Dr. Antonucci. Thanks to him, my son has a new outlook on life and improved capabilities.
Dear Dr. Antonucci,
I have been blessed honored and privileged to have had the opportunity to be your patient along with learning valuable knowledge. You are an incredible person! Humble, compassionate, kind, brilliant but yet so down to earth. You always made me feel comfortable throughout my treatment. To see your enthusiasm when you talk about developing new ideas and technology to enhance the lives of others is so inspiring! You have made a tremendous impact in my life and I am eternally grateful! Thank you so much! I will miss your warm smile and sense of humor.
Blessings to you and your family!
Linda
Dr. Antonucci,
Once again, thank you so very much for all of your help. The progress that I make while at your clinic is unparalleled. Today was the first morning in 1,159 days that I woke up without a headache. Honestly, it was a little bit strange, but in the best way! My family and I are so appreciative for all of your help.
I was referred to Dr. Antonucci by one of his colleagues. At the time, I was experiencing vertigo, which got progressively worse over a few months. It got to the point that I couldn't work and could barely walk without feeling like falling. I knew I had to do something, so I visited Dr. Antonucci for a 5-day intensive program. After the 1st day, my symptoms were reduced 70%. After the 4th day, my symptoms were reduced 95% and I was sent home early with exercises to do at home.
Dr. Antonucci gave me my life back!! Seven years later, I still feel great and am proud to serve with his team as a technology consultant.
I just completed the last chapter of FNMOC Level 1. Let me tell you something… your way of lecturing is so great to understand. It was my first class ever, among all the classes of the Carrick Institute. I’m so glad that my first class was yours. I need some time to digest Level 1 contents, but, I am sure I will jump into Level 2 sooner or later. I cannot wait to take FNMOC Level 2, and your other classes, maybe online or face to face.
Again, thank you very much for dedicating your time and putting together your knowledge and experience for this class.
Dr. Antonucci is an exceptional concussion specialist whose expertise and compassion are unmatched. Having had the privilege of working with him on concussion research and witnessing his patient interactions firsthand, I can attest to his profound knowledge and patient-centered approach. His ability to develop innovative, personalized treatment plans has significantly accelerated recovery for many patients. Dr. Antonucci’s skill in explaining complex medical concepts and his unwavering commitment to patient well-being make him a standout in the field. If I or my children ever sustained a concussion, he would be the first person I would turn to. I highly recommend Dr. Antonucci to anyone seeking top-tier concussion care. Five stars are well deserved!
Dr. Antonucci is a phenomenal physician who truly stands out in the fields of health and functional neurology. I didn’t even know “functional neurology” was a thing until I was introduced to him and now I am so intrigued by the field. From my very first visit, I was impressed by his holistic approach to health and his deep understanding of the intricate balance between body systems. His expertise in functional neurology ensures that every diagnosis and treatment plan is tailored to the unique workings of your nervous system, providing a clear and accurate path to better health. After only 2 sessions with Dr. Antonucci I was able to move better, had increased flexibility, had less back pain, and obtained much better balance. I can now understand why he is one of the top doctors worldwide in his field.
From my experience, what sets Dr. Antonucci apart is his commitment to personalized care and ability to take on complex cases. He takes the time to listen, understand your concerns, and develop a tailored plan that addresses your specific needs. His obvious knowledge and skills combined with precision and a compassionate touch puts you at ease.
If you’ve tried other options with little luck, and you’re looking for a doctor who is not only highly skilled but also genuinely cares about your well-being, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Antonucci. He has made a significant positive impact on my health, and I am grateful for his exceptional care.
I first met Dr. Antonucci in 2009, when we cooperatively managed one of my more challenging pediatric patients with Asperger’s Syndrome, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and severe depression. Dr. Antonucci’s collaborative nature, as well as his progressive and comprehensive approach intrigued me to learn more about him. On occasion, I would visit his clinic in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. One time I recall a local neurologist accompanying his patient for an assessment of his severe tremor. The patient could not hold a glass of water without losing its content raising it to his mouth. After assessing the individual's brain, in 5 minutes of doing some neurological exercises, he was able to decrease the tremor by 75%.
In 2015, I was diagnosed with Idiopathic Increased Intracranial Pressure, which required the placement of a brain stent. After the procedure, I developed dizziness and migraine headaches for six months after my brain was ‘fixed”. I saw multiple neurologists and vestibular physical therapists that were completely vexed by my presentation; everyone said it sounded like a concussion, but had no clue how to help me. That is when I knew it was time to call Dr. Antonucci. He invited me come to his clinic in Atlanta, at the time. After a thorough assessment which was never done by ANY of my prior clinicians, he quickly created a plan and started treatment. Four days later (working 3 hrs per day under his care), about 80% of my symptoms had subsided. During my week of treatment, I met a wonderful woman in a wheelchair who traveled from Canada to see Dr. A. She told me that she had seen 61 specialists over 3 years throughout the United States and Canada, including neurologists and physical therapists. On her second day of treatment, she walked into the clinic unassisted for the first time in 3 years. I was utterly speechless.
As a medical physician, I chose to refer challenging patients to Dr. Antonucci because of his incredible understanding of the brain, and impressive outcomes. His unique knowledge of the human brain is unsurpassed by any of my peers, including my clinical team. It is entirely different than what I learned in my training or residency as a physician.
I truly believe Dr. Antonucci is unmatched in healthcare. When traditional neurology, vestibular physical therapy, chiropractic, and holistic medicine fail independently, he bridges the gap. If you are a physician with an unresponsive patient or a patient searching for one of the best experts in the field of neurology, I highly recommend a referring to Dr. Antonucci.
Dr. Antonucci is a talented clinician who was a first-assist in his neurology fellowship with me. In the decade following his training, I am proud to share that he has developed an international reputation as an authority as both a clinician and an educator in concussion and brain injury rehabilitation. Dr. Antonucci is an empathic healthcare provider, humanist, and lifelong learner. We are fortunate to have him as faculty at the Carrick Institute and serving humanity.
When my mother and I flew across the country to attend your program, we weren't sure what to expect. We hoped to learn more about our brains and the genetic wiring that has malfunctioned our whole lives, but never in a million years did we ever think we would achieve the remarkable results we uncovered while in your program.
Our Lives have changed drastically with your help and the support staff!
Nearly a month later, I am still virtually pain-free. I can wake up in the morning and climb out of bed easily for the first time in 3 years. My mother is walking better than she has in nearly 40 years! Her foot can finally go flat on the floor without muscle spasms forcing it to curl. We can't thank you all enough! We thought there were no options for genetic suffers like us, but boy, are we thankful you proved us wrong! Keep up the incredible life changing work!
Dr. Antonucci,
I want you to know how valuable I am finding your class on management of concussion. I have been studying with the Carrick Institute since the 1980's. Over the years I have accumulated a wide base of knowledge which I have applied with good results with my patients.
Your course (FNMOC) has significantly upped my game. Your approach has given me a logical framework that ties all of the elements of functional neurology together.
I have recently retired from full time practice and now work 4 days per month seeing concussion cases. I anticipate earning tens of thousands of dollars more over the next year because of this class. If I were working full time I would earn millions more over the years. There is nobody around who is even close to managing these cases as well as I can using the approaches I have learned in this class.
This class is the biggest bargain to be found in post-graduate education and would remain a bargain at double or triple the cost.
Thanks for all the work you have done.
Dr. Antonucci was absolutely amazing working with our daughter. We saw great improvements in her Post Concussion Syndrome symptoms almost immediately. Since treatment, she has seen drastic changes in her brain fog, eye sight, sleep habits, reaction time, and headaches. It has been evident from the beginning and now post-treatment that Dr. A genuinely wants the best for his patients. He pours over all testing data with extreme attention to detail in order to come up with the best plan for each individual. That, along with access to some of the most ground breaking equipment in concussion therapies in the country, he is able to provide rehabilitation unlike any other. We feel extremely grateful to have been able to have him work with our daughter and bring her back to her normal, teenage self. You cannot put a price on that.
We came to Dr. A after six months of searching for answers and relief for our 12 year old daughter. She had suffered from chronic headaches for many years but this past October they escalated to a point where they were no longer manageable and she was remaining in a constant pain cycle. This was obviously greatly impacting her quality of life. She loves to sing and dance and was no longer able to enjoy these simple pleasures and hobbies. She was unable to do school and even basic daily tasks were difficult. Her sleep was affected, her energy level and her outlook. We sought help from many medical professionals and over the course of the 6 months she was hospitalized three times in an effort to bring her relief but each avenue was unsuccessful. Until, Dr. A.
After being connected with Dr. A through a friend we reached out to his team in desperation. From the very first point of contact, they were incredible, and before we knew it, we were on a plane to spend an immersive week with Dr. A. I can't even begin to explain how life-giving this experience was, especially after so many closed doors and such a difficult time advocating for our daughter. Dr. A's patient care was like nothing we had experienced thus far. His attention to detail and his ability to not only communicate clearly but put together so many moving parts were on a totally different level of care. Our daughter quickly began to trust him, and for the first time in 6 months, I watched her dare to hope again. Over the immersive week of treatment, the light in her eyes began to return slowly, and she woke each day looking forward to seeing Dr. A and making more progress. At the beginning of the week, we shared with Dr. A that our desired outcome would be a clear path forward. We gained so much more. Not only did he help provide that for us, but our daughter left her time with Dr. A pain-free for the first time in months, and, since coming home, has only continued to improve. She is smiling, singing, playing with her brother and laughing - she is enjoying being a child again.
To be completely honest, it is still so hard for us to process. After so many months of despair, we have hope, and we can't deny the progress we saw her make with Dr. A. It was more than worth it, and we would do it over again in an instant. As we left Dr. A he hugged her goodbye and said, "don't fear the setbacks, if you fall, I'll catch." As a parent, I don't believe there is a greater pain than watching your child suffer, and yet Dr. A's confident compassion traded our anxieties for peace.
We are convinced there is no one in the world like him and five stars just isn’t enough.
Thank you, Dr. A, for finding the light in her eyes again; we are forever grateful.
I’ve taken a couple hundred hours of Dr. Antonucci’s lectures and enjoy them both online and in person. They are well thought out, and he explains concepts in easy-to-understand language. In person, he always answers everyone’s questions and never makes me or anyone else feel inferior. I highly recommend his courses!
As a Doctor of Physical Therapy with clinical experience and training in both vestibular rehab and brain injury rehab, I have the ability to recognize when a doctor has something unique to offer. Physical therapy/vestibular rehab benefits so many patients, but Dr. Antonucci has such a greater understanding of how the brain works that he can take tools and exercises that I am very familiar with, evaluate the brain of a patient, hone in on their dysfunction, and somehow create (what looks like) such a simple plan that gets the job done... extremely well. His knowledge of neurology and their unique and specific application of treatments is the biggest difference between his work and physical therapy/vestibular rehabilitation.
When clients do not respond to vestibular rehab, I refer them to Dr. Antonucci and his team. I would also be fully confident to say that a patient who has not responded optimally working with a physical (or another type of) therapist, even one experienced in vestibular rehab, would benefit from the comprehensive evaluation, the abundance of technology, the individualized diagnosis, and the unique specificity of their treatment plan. I can honestly say there is no other provider I would recommend to a client who feels like they have hit a wall and wants to take their health to another level.
Dr. Antonucci has been a highly respected and popular speaker at World Federation of Chiropractic (WFC) events for many years. These have included a full seminar for the WFC Eastern Mediterranean region in Dubai, through to presenting at WFC Congresses in Washington DC and Berlin. He has a deep knowledge of his subject matter and attendee feedback invariably speaks to his ability to communicate complex issues clearly and effectively. Covering diverse issues related to neurological examination and specialist chiropractic interventions, Dr Antonucci is a popular speaker and consistently adds value in the field of chiropractic teaching and learning.
Recently, this has featured lectures to interprofessional audiences on issues relating to the contemporary assessment and chiropractic management of concussion, an issue of intense global focus across both elite and amateur sport. His presence at postgraduate events adds significant value to the learning experience of diverse audiences both interprofessionally and in terms of career experience.
In summary, I highly recommend Dr Antonucci as an expert keynote speaker and workshop presenter in the field of neurology as it relates to sports medicine and chiropractic.
Dr. Antonucci is undoubtedly the most knowledgeable and effective clinician that I know regarding concussion rehabilitation and preventative care. He has helped my athletes tremendously during the season and off-season, with passion and attention to detail. I have had a 100% success rate for every athlete he has treated, and I trust him wholeheartedly. Thank you, Dr. Antonucci!
After suffering a significant concussion, our child saw the best doctors, specialists, and therapists. After five months of treatment, the results were underwhelming, to say the least. We were worried we would not get our kid back. Dr. Antonucci worked wonders. We could see significant quantitative and qualitative results after the first day. By the end of the week, we were confident our child was well on their way to recovery. Two months out from seeing Dr Antonucci, our child is symptom-free and back to being the active, happy kid he was prior to injury.
Dr. Antonucci is a charismatic leader and practitioner that inspires me to be a better doctor and person. He is optimistic but realistic; always with a smile. He has a unique ability to dissect complex neurological concepts into simple and understandable terms. Although he is an expert in neurology, he has always impressed me with his genuine desire and humility to seek more information with a different perception. He sees the best in others, lifting them to reach their potential.
I have suffered from post-concussion syndrome for the last 4.5 years. In January, I began to have neurological attacks that mimicked strokes with one-sided weakness, slow, slurred speech, and erratic eye movements accompanied by horrible right-sided head pain, amongst other symptoms. These attacks last 8-12 days and occur every 15-25 days. The daily headache/migraines, nausea, dizziness, brain fog, sensitivity to light/noise, sensory overload and fatigue along with numerous other symptoms have left me unable to work and basically lost my ability to function totally independently. My medical condition has baffled the best and I was losing hope.
All this changed after meeting with Dr. Antonucci and spending 6 days in his immersive program in Minnesota! I am 2.5 weeks out and feel much better! There is no comparison to how I feel today vs how I felt walking into the center. Since leaving, I have not had any additional neuro attacks, headaches/migraines have been tolerable, less intense and less frequent. In general, everything is "toned" way down and much better....noise sensitivity, light sensitivity, sensory overload, equilibrium/balance and walking is much more stable, vision seems clearer and my clarity and brain fog is much better. I have "life" energy that I haven't had in 6+ months! I have had several people who have seen or spoken to me in the last week or so that say that I "sound" so much better...hear glimpses of the real "me"!
Dr. A has improved my quality of life and put me on the road to recovery. He and Daniel run a top-notch organization that is the "real deal"! Communication, care, compassion, experience, and expertise are second to None! A "Thank you" seems insignificant in comparison to the impact that you have made!
I’ve known Dr. Antonucci for over 3 years now and presented at conferences with him on numerous integrative health panels. I can assure you, his work is unmatched! As a primary care physician, he's my go to for concussion and vestibular referrals. He is dedicated to his craft, great with patients, and is always up to date on the latest literature and treatments. I cannot recommend him enough!
We have just returned back from a 5-day immersive treatment with Dr. Antonucci in Minneapolis. The words on the door state: “There is hope”. There is more than hope with Dr. Antonucci. There are miracles.
Dr. Antonucci gave my daughter her life back. She was in pain after her fifth concussion – pain in the head and neck. Constant agonizing pain, everyday for 2 years, 2 months and 11 days. It was hard for her to function. No one could find the root cause of her pain and her many post-concussion symptoms. She was told to live with the pain. No drugs could help the pain. My daughter (13 years old) was unable to attend school for more than 2-3 hours a week. She was dizzy, she could not walk straight, her balance was off and her brain in a fog. Other clinicians stated that she would get better with time because she is a teenager. This did not happen – how could this happen, when no root cause was ever identified. Her symptoms were being treated (unsuccessfully) rather than the root cause.
Dr. Antonucci found the root causes of all her symptoms - and fixed them. If we had not been to see him, then my daughter would have had to live a very hard life with pain, and a brain which was not functioning properly.
Dr. Antonucci is a brilliant functional neurology practitioner. What he did for my daughter was a miracle. When we got off the plane to see Dr. Antonucci, my daughter was using a walker for balance and stability. After 5 days of treatment, the walker was no longer needed. I went home with a smiling teenager and post-care exercises. There are still many things to do – but she is on the road to recovery.
Daniel (Dr. Antonucci’s practice manager) is a tremendous support for Dr. Antonucci. He answered all our questions patiently and kindly and kept us in the loop for the entire process. He provided guidance and very prompt responses, correspondence and reports which we needed.
As a medical doctor practicing for 25+ years, I've had the privilege of working with some great doctors. However, Dr. Antonucci's breadth and depth of knowledge in neurology are unmatched. I have referred several friends and patients to Dr. Antonucci; his results have been nothing short of amazing. When he asked me to serve as his medical director, I proudly accepted the invitation. I hope the people of central Florida know how fortunate they are to have a specialist of his caliber here.
We have been working with Dr. Antonucci since the summer of 2023. My son, who is 5, has a diagnosis of HIE, gtube dependent (at the moment) and developmental delays. We were told a lot of things that my son would not be able to do because of the brain injury. However, my husband and I refused to accept this gloom and doom and took the situation to the Lord. As we prayed, the Lord continued to bring different professionals to us to assist in Zeke's healing and growth.
We have been working with functional neurologists since 2019, and always saw massive jumps neurologically after a session. In 2023, it became clear to us - and our current functional neurologist - that our son was ready for something more and we were referred to Dr. Antonucci for a consult. From our first interaction with Dr. Antonucci and his team, we felt very much at ease and were treated with the upmost care and respect. Daniel, Dr. Antonucci's assistant, is incredibly patient, organized and helpful.
When we had our consult with Dr. A, and I am pretty sure I cried in the middle of the consult! I cried because Dr. A was one of the first professionals who really SAW my son. He really saw the potential. He saw that my son was operating at an age appropriate level cognitively even though his body was currently operating at a 4 month old level. Dr. A is incredibly intelligent, well read and well known in his field (especially with his work with HIE), yet he spoke to us with kindness and humility. He LISTENED to us. He heard our story and spoke hope over my son's life.
We decided it was wisdom to move forward in working with Dr. A, and we are so glad we did! He recommended taking our son to an intensive PT locally, at a facility that he consults with/in. This has made a MASSIVE difference in my son's physical ability. The combo of Dr. A's expertise with the PT's tools have been an incredible combination in my son's life.
My son had very little head control and trunk control, but now, after 3 go rounds of intensive treatment and working with Dr. A (and lots of prayer!), my son has shown that he is able to hold his head and trunk up and WALK in a gait trainer. Mind blowing.
If I have not convinced you yet to call this gifted man, let me provide you with a few other reasons to work with him:
(1) My son LOVES him. He genuinely enjoys seeing him and smiles even when we mention his name. And my son does not warm to people easily.
(2) Dr. A truly listens to the parent. He converses with you. He does not just make a treatment plan and say "do it." He listens to your goal, your child's goal and then works alongside you step by step to achieve the goals.
(3) He is available. Although he is most likely one of the busiest doctors in his field, he always finds a moment to answer my emails or to have a quick call with me to answer questions.
(4) He genuinely cares about his patients. He remembers details about them and also is willing to work with the treatment team as a whole to achieve the goal set forth by the patient.
Thank you Dr. A!
Before meeting Dr. A, I was struggling with balance issues, motion sickness, and had recently suffered a minor concussion. Fortunately, I didn't experience headaches, but my motion sickness had worsened.
During my first meeting with Dr. A, I felt nervous because I didn't know what to expect. However, Dr. A's welcoming demeanor and respectful, patient approach quickly put me at ease. He takes the time to explain everything thoroughly and is incredibly knowledgeable and meticulous. I deeply appreciate his holistic approach to treatment, looking at the whole picture rather than just prescribing a pill.
Dr. A truly stands out as a compassionate and dedicated professional.
It’s been over a year since I have been treated and I continue to feel so much better than I did before. My motion, sickness and balance have greatly improved and I can go on more trips and travel without feeling awful all the time. It was a great investment in my health!
Thank you, Dr Antonucci, for being the only doctor who was able to help and guide us on what to do to get our daughter healthy again. The knowledge you have is impressive. We had been to so many doctors and no one knew what to do. So, I was willing to fly wherever you were practicing to have my daughter under your care. Your exam was unbelievably thorough and the state of the art equipment that was used is incredible. We will forever be grateful for what you have done to help our daughter and family. Thank you for all you do to help change peoples lives. I feel blessed that our daughter is under your care.
Dr. Antonucci has been critical to my son, Matthew, who was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy. Matthew now understands where his body is in time and space (meaning understanding of sitting straight up and not leaning over the side of his wheelchair). This is critical because he will see his world differently now and help him understand his world better. Working in collaboration with my Occupational and Physical therapists at Ability Plus Therapy to follow through with Dr. Antonucci’s excellent understanding of the brain creates a wonderful outcome for clients.
I have been lucky to enough work with Dr. Antonucci for over 10 years as a concussion expert and specialist. His knowledge, professionalism, and compassion are something all medical professionals should strive to achieve. Thank you, Dr. Antonucci, for always being there and helping our friends and family!
Dr. Antonucci is a professional who truly cares about and for his patients. His level of expertise in my spinal issue was second to none, and without even seeing my MRI, he knew what was happening. His constant follow up with me throughout the past six weeks has been incredible for a health care professional and I owe a great deal to him for assisting me with getting the proper diagnosis and level of care necessary. This only allows 5 stars, but I rate Dr. Antonucci at 100+ for his level of expertise. You will never regret having this professional to call upon when necessary.
Thank you for giving my brain some much-needed TLC—or maybe CPR is more accurate? Seriously, I feel my systems are awake and alert in a way that I can't remember in a long time. Your expertise and years in the field have not made you apathetic or condescending. Instead, you are so warm, approachable, and MOTIVATING! After years of struggling, I feel hope now that had been eclipsed by my concussion. I am BACK, and I am grateful! Thanks again.
I have known Dr. A for over 10 years, through his speaking at Florida Chiropractic Association conventions, and he is truly exceptional. He makes complex neurology understandable and is a dynamic speaker - from a breakout session to the big stage. He constantly delivers cutting-edge material and relates to the audience in a humble and humorous way, turning a complex subject into an engaging experience. It often seems he is on a mission to educate the masses on the correct diagnosis and treatment of concussions.
He has incredible character, is a great family man, and has a brilliant mind in neurology. Highly recommend 😉
Bonjour! I am from Switzerland and I speaks French, so I hope this translates properly.
Dr. Antonucci changed my life; the work he does is incredible! After three years of pain, misunderstanding, and waiting to take control of my life again after a concussion, when many people had given up, Dr. Antonucci enabled me to regain my life without dizziness, light sensitivity, headaches, less fatigue, and more concentration. All of this in just one week of intensive treatment and adapted home exercises.
I also want to thank his entire team, especially Daniel, for the work he does and the invaluable help he provided me. For the follow-up, even from across the ocean. You are amazing! I can only recommend you to anyone experiencing neurological issues!
I was a great challenge met with brilliance; thank you for believing with me and for your unwavering support. THANK YOU!
Never give up, always believe, and life will smile upon you!
Dr. Antonucci is the absolute best! I had a TMJ injury and after going to multiple specialists, Dr. A is the only physician that helped relieve me of the pain I was in. What's even more exciting is that every time I get treated by him, I sleep better, think better, and feel better, and that lasts longer every time. I travel 6 hours, round-trip from Miami to see him and I’m so grateful to be his patient!
I still don't know how you did it. My left hand started shaking about 7 years ago. Doctor after doctor just wanted me to try medications. They all made me either fatigued, dizzy, depressed, short of breath, gain weight, or feel like I couldn't think. I had pretty much conceded that I would never be able to write, hold a cup of coffee, or cut a steak again. Then my daughter convinced me to come see you.
As I told you, I am very skeptical, and I thought I would waste my time and money on your program. But my daughter was persistent. I'm glad she was.
You were the only doctor out of about 15 who explained my condition to me, told me where the problem was, and had a plan to fix it—that worked!
In just a couple days, it was almost GONE! I still can't believe it.
I'm writing this 2 months since I left the clinic and the tremor ha come back a little bit, but I can write, drink, eat and do all of the things that I've always been able to do prior to my essential tremor diagnosis.
Thank you for your dedication to excellence. I, and many others, are very grateful for you.
I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude to you and your team. It is a cliché, but words truly cannot express how deeply grateful I feel for your help and expertise. You have given me my life back! I'm on fire once again!
Before treatment, I was, at best, just a shadow of my former self; and at worst, just a memory struggling to survive. But with your help, I am leading a happy, fulfilling life. I feel like I have my "Carissa-ness" back! I am doing what I love and loving What I do! I teach 20 kindergarteners daily, am a horse 4H leader, am a mother and wife once again, put on a 250-child Christmas musical, organized a Christmas craft fair at the school, read novels for pleasure, joined a professional reading group, renovated our home, compete with my horse, participated in horse clinics, and even managed to start training to ride my 4-year-old colt. And the best part is I have done it symptom-free! I continue to do the prescribed brain exercises daily. After leaving the clinic, I have felt stronger and stronger each day! And I noticed that when I was reading my professional book for the book club I had joined, my eyes could track at lightning speed! This was all possible because of you, Dr. Antonucci.
My daughter says I have my sparkle back! I feel truly blessed to have had the pleasure of working with you, and I will never forget my experience at your clinic. Every day, I say a "Thank you for this moment" to you! It was you, Dr. Antonucci, who gave me the greatest gift of all—a life worth living. Once again, many thanks for the transformation you gave me back.
Smiles and Hugs,
Carissa
