Concussion & Brain Injury Program
Concussion & Brain Injury Program in Westchester, NY
A concussion deserves more than a single visit and a wait-and-see plan. Our neurosurgical team at Kavera NeuroHealth evaluates and manages concussion and post-concussion symptoms with a structured program that follows recognized clinical guidelines and tracks your recovery from the first visit through your return to daily life.
Care led by a board-certified neurosurgeon
Directed by John M. Abrahams, MD, a board-certified neurosurgeon who has practiced in Westchester County for more than two decades. The program grew out of years of hands-on neurological practice and a clear need for evaluation that is consistent, well-documented, and steady over the full course of recovery.
A structured approach, supported by Kavera
Our program pairs experienced clinical judgment with the Kavera Concussion Platform, a structured, measurable recovery program built by our founder for use in this practice. Rather than a single visit and a wait-and-see plan, it uses objective baseline and follow-up assessments to track your symptoms and cognition over time, with standardized measures reviewed across visits and structured guidance for your return to learn, work, and activity grounded in your measured recovery. Kavera is a tool our clinicians use; it does not replace medical judgment and does not prescribe.
Standardized assessment.
Your first visit establishes a baseline using a structured history, a neurological and vestibular examination, cognitive testing, and validated symptom questionnaires.
Symptom & recovery tracking.
Between visits, brief check-ins reach you by email or text so your care team sees how symptoms change without waiting for the next appointment.
Guideline-informed planning.
The platform helps our team align recommendations with recognized concussion-management guidelines.
Organized documentation.
Every assessment and note is assembled into a clear record for your understanding, coordination with other providers, and school or work documentation.

Concussion care questions.
What is the concussion program at Kavera NeuroHealth?
It is a clinician-led program for the evaluation and management of concussion and post-concussion symptoms. Our board-certified neurosurgical team pairs hands-on assessment with the Kavera Concussion Platform to deliver structured, guideline-informed care and to track recovery over time.
Do I need a referral?
Many patients come to us directly. Others are referred by a primary care doctor, an emergency department, an athletic trainer, or another specialist. You may request a consultation on your own.
When should I be evaluated after a head injury?
If a blow to the head or body is followed by headache, confusion, dizziness, nausea, or sensitivity to light or sound, an evaluation is reasonable. For a severe or worsening headache, repeated vomiting, confusion, loss of consciousness, a seizure, weakness or numbness, or slurred speech, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department right away.
