About Us
Our Team
What sets Neurocare apart is the care our staff provides for our research participants. We are dedicated to making volunteers’ experience comfortable and safe; the well-being of our volunteers is a top priority. Before they enroll in a trial we make sure that they understand what can be expected during their participation and that any questions are answered. Our dedication to customer service and ethical conduct are key features of our culture. This manifests itself in our exceptionally high retention rate of volunteers.

Healthcare Providers
We routinely contact each patient’s primary care provider and relevant specialist(s) to inform them of the details of the trial for which their patient is eligible. This communication enables each patient to have meaningful consultations with their physicians regarding the trial and also make sure that participation in the trial will not conflict with ongoing or anticipated treatment managed by their doctors. After patients give written consent, we request permission from each volunteer to allow us to share information about their trial with their doctors to ensure the volunteer’s safety. We also ask doctors to provide patients’ key medical records. During the course of each volunteer’s trial we report any abnormal lab and/or imaging results to their doctors. Optimal communication between Neurocare physicians and volunteers’ clinicians promotes safety and efficacy within the trials. Participation in trials includes lab testing and assessment, updated medical histories, and physical examinations.
