Welcome and Introduction
8:00AM - 8:05AM
Neha Narula, MD
Olga Goldberg, MD

Approach to Neuropathy
8:05AM - 8:55AM
Kalin L Wilson, MD
Kathie S Lin, MD


This session will provide a practical, case-based approach to neuropathy workup and management. Participants will gain confidence in evaluation, role of EMG/NCS, symptomatic management, and when to consider referral to neurology. We will plan to discuss some interesting new literature on spinal cord stimulators and GLP-1 agonists.
Headache
8:55AM - 9:45AM
Malathi Srinivasan, MD
Steven l Mcintire, MD, PhD


This session will review common headache disorders with a focus on diagnosis and management.  Through a case-based methodology, participants should gain confidence in the selection of different treatment strategies and develop increased familiarity with more recently available therapeutics.  Clinical cues that would suggest a need for neurological referral or a more extensive work-up will be discussed.
Dizziness
9:45AM - 10:35AM
Calvin Santiago, MD
Benjamin Silverberg, MD


This session will provide case-based framework for evaluating and managing dizziness in primary care. We will introduce the TiTrATE algorithm as a structured diagnostic tool. Through case-based discussion, participants will gain confidence distinguishing between common etiologies of dizziness, knowing when (and when not) to pursue further workup, and initiating appropriate treatment or referral.
Break
10:35AM - 10:50AM

MCI/Dementia
10:50AM - 11:40AM
Olga Goldberg, MD
Julie Thai, MD, MPH


This session will provide a practical approach to evaluating cognitive symptoms in a primary care context, including key patient history features to focus on, learning useful evaluation strategies, and management clinical pearls. We will discuss biomarker testing and eligibility for and utility of anti-amyloid therapies as well. Through case-based approach, participants will gain confidence in symptomatic management and in knowing when to consider referral to neuropsychology vs neurology vs psychiatry.
Post Stroke Care
11:40AM - 12:30PM
Varalakshmi Niranjan, MD
Eric Rider, MD
Qian Ma, MD, PhD


This session will provide a practical approach to the outpatient evaluation and management of ischemic stroke and TIA. Topics include routine stroke workup, secondary stroke prevention, management of long-term stroke complications, and special considerations for young patients, patients with cancer, and those with incidentally discovered chronic cerebral infarcts.
Lunch Break
12:30PM - 1:10PM

Tremor
1:10PM - 2:00PM
Silvia Tee, MD
Rebecca Kate Miller-Kuhlmann, MD


This case-based session equips the outpatient clinician to evaluate tremor efficiently and confidently. Through real-world cases, participants will learn to distinguish key tremor syndromes using semiologic features. The session will also address when to initiate treatment, first-line management options, and indications for neurology referral.
Seizure/Epilepsy
2:00PM - 2:50PM
Farhana Rob, DO
Mishu Chandra, MD


This session will highlight features of syncope that are concerning for epileptic semiology. Through this case-based presentation, attendees will gain an approach to help differentiate seizures from other causes of syncope, determine the appropriate diagnostic processes, and understand how to select anti-seizure medication with a tailored approach to individualized needs.
Neuroimmune Conditions + Incidental Imaging Findings
2:50PM - 3:25PM
Neha Narula, MD
Christopher Bruce Lock, MD


This session will provide a structured approach to recognizing and evaluating common neuroimmunologic conditions encountered in primary care. Through real-world cases, participants will learn to identify key presenting symptoms, select appropriate diagnostic testing, determine when urgent evaluation is warranted, and recognize indications for neurology referral. The session will also address frequently encountered incidental neuroimaging findings, such as white matter hyperintensities, cerebral cysts, vascular variants, and other common abnormalities.
Closing Remarks
3:25PM - 3:30PM
Neha Narula, MD
Olga Goldberg, MD
