Friends of Fit to Function

Check out some of our preferred service providers for additional, ongoing, excellent care that goes beyond "good enough."

Headway Neurology

A bit about Headway from the founder:

"I'm a stroke neurologist and a stroke recovery specialist who would like to work with survivors longitudinally to help them reach higher levels of recovery from their stroke-related disabilities. I find ways to help stroke survivors unlock more potential for recovery and match them with the rehabilitation strategies that would be most useful for them at each stage. I would love to see people at my (self-pay) private practice at Headway Neurology in Newton, MA for a more focused, easy, and direct care experience, or they can see me at Tufts Medical Center (especially if they have Medicare or MassHealth coverage)."
