What is a Neuropsychologist?
A
Neuropsychologist is a doctor who specializes in brain-behavior relationships.
Neuropsychologists are typically called in by neurosurgeons, neurologists, and
psychiatrists to assess brain functioning, to help describe how cognitive
processes have changed, and to predict how the patients life will now be
altered. Neuropsychologists are a required member of a brain rehabilitation team
under the standards of the Commission on the Accreditation of Rehabilitation
Facilities.
