Cognitive neurologist Harry Kerasidis, M.D. has a distinguished career helping the public, scholars and medical professionals understand the link between the physiology of the brain and behavior. He is the Founder of Chesapeake Neurology Associates in Maryland and at Calvert Memorial Hospital, he serves as the Medical Director for the Center for Neuroscience, Sleep Disorders Center and Stroke Center. He is also a regular contributor to Psychology Today and Athletic Business magazines.
Known as the “Brain Doctor,” Dr. Kerasidis is one of only a few elite neurologists in the world specializing in the impairment of cognitive and emotional performance resulting from concussions. He co-founded XLNTbrain LLC after 25 years studying the changes of the electrophysiology of the brain as it relates to behavior, cognitive function and emotional function resulting from various brain trauma, including concussions.
Dr. Kerasidis has treated hundreds of concussion injuries in his practice as well as patients with a variety of cognitive and behavioral disorders including memory loss, sleep deprivation, ADD, dementia, Alzheimer’s, and traumatic brain injury.
Through his experience, Dr. Kerasidis noticed existing concussion baseline testing lacked critical cognitive measures. So he created and began using his own baseline assessment, acute management and recovery care plan, which has been incorporated into XLNTbrain Sport’s complete concussion management program for all sports and levels.
