Allan A. Belen

As a neurologist and psychiatrist, I specialize in the intricate relationship between the brain and behavior, focusing on both neurological and psychiatric disorders. My work involves diagnosing and treating conditions that affect the nervous system, such as stroke, epilepsy, Parkinson disease, and dementia, among others, while also addressing mental health issues like depression, anxiety, and psychosis. In my practice, I conduct comprehensive evaluations that include detailed medical histories and neuropsychological assessments. This allows me to differentiate between purely neurological disorders and those that have psychiatric components. By utilizing advanced diagnostic tools such as MRI and EEG, I can identify underlying brain abnormalities that may contribute to a patient's symptoms. My approach is holistic; I integrate medical, psychological, and social interventions tailored to each individual's needs. This dual expertise enables me to provide a comprehensive treatment plan that addresses both the physical and mental aspects of my patients' health, ultimately improving their quality of life.
