Overview

I enjoy general neurology, but have a particular interest in the rehabilitation of individuals with neurological disorders. I previously worked as a physical therapist in an orthopedic clinic in Troy, New York, for seven years. I fell in love with the anatomy of the nervous system during my physical therapy training and again in medical school.

Dr. Hawes is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Optic Neuritis. Her top areas of expertise are Peripheral Neuropathy, Hemiplegia, Spastic Diplegia Infantile Type, and Cerebral Palsy.

Her clinical research consists of co-authoring 5 peer reviewed articles. MediFind looks at clinical research from the past 15 years.

"Neurologic conditions can be scary, and neuroimmunologic conditions even more so. It's easy to feel in the dark about what is happening. I approach patient care with just as much attention to empowering education as I do to disease management. I strive to ""turn the lights on"" so people know more about their conditions, what to expect, and (most importantly) what we can do about them. If we ever meet, don't be surprised if I quote John Steinbeck or offer advice on your next mobile device.". Dr. Lee Hartsell Iii is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Optic Neuritis. His top areas of expertise are Neuromyelitis Optica, Optic Neuritis, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis (RMS).
