DID YOU KNOW:

Every so often, Dr. Kozminski serves as the ringside doctor for Imagine Wrestling, an organization based in Altoona, PA. This is a fun job for him and he does get to meet some interesting individuals along the way. Of course, one of his favorite heel (AKA bad guy) wrestler right now is The Real Deal, Magnus Knox.

DID YOU KNOW:

Onabotulinum Toxin (Botox) was not FDA approved for the usage of chronic migraine until the year 2010.

Dr. Matthew Kozminski performed his very first Botox injection procedure in 2005 and had performed thousands of procedures long before the product was officially FDA approved!

Dr. Kozminski never stopped learning! He would further enhance his education in Botox training in 2007 with a scholarship to the Callosal Society, where he was further trained in Botox injection techniques by top neurologist from Emory University. Additionally, he attended many courses through the American Headache Society and Southern Headache Society, as well, engaged in numerous discussions with top Headache Specialist across the globe.

First and foremost, we would like to congratulate Dr. Elliot Michel of Valley Neurology, who will be retiring this upcoming April 1st.

NeuroPitt will become the custodian of the patient charts from Valley Neurology.

Dr. Matthew Kozminski will continue to operate outpatient clinics under this own practice in Brackenridge and Kittanning, thus, you may consider transitioning your chart and care to his practice.

Bear in mind that Dr. Kozminski will not be operating a clinic in New Castle, thus, if you are a Valley Neurology patient from the New Castle region you are advised to begin a search for a new neurologist at this time.

In order to transition your care to another neurology practice as smooth as possible, it is highly recommended that you take the following steps:

1) Make a new patient appointment with another neurologist. Then call 724-749-4188. A staff member will gladly fax your records to your new neurologist.

2) If your new neurologist asks you to sign a release of records, have that office fax the form to: 724-202-0394. Once received, a staff member will gladly fax your records to the appropriate office.

3) If you desire to have the records released to yourself, bear in mind that due to HIPPA regulations, we cannot email or fax records to your personal email/fax. You must sign a release of records to yourself in person and pick up the records. Bear in mind that you will be charged a fee to release records to yourself.

Thank you all for your patience during this transition.
