After a head injury, it’s essential to clearly assess your current brain and body function.

The Lasting Impact of Concussions — and Why It’s Not "All in Your Head"
If you’re living with the effects of a concussion, you know how disruptive and overwhelming it can feel.
Even long after the initial injury, symptoms can linger — making it hard to work, train, focus, or simply enjoy daily life without frustration or fear.
You might be experiencing:
- Persistent headaches or migraines
- Dizziness, balance problems, or feeling “off”
- Brain fog, memory issues, or trouble concentrating
- Sensitivity to light, noise, or motion
- Mood swings, irritability, anxiety, or depression
- Difficulty sleeping or feeling constantly fatigued
- Feeling disconnected from your body, emotions, or surroundings
These symptoms are real — and they can affect every part of your life, from your physical abilities to your mental health and emotional wellbeing.
You’re not imagining it, you’re not exaggerating it, and you don’t have to face it alone.
Many people are told to “just give it time,” but that’s not advised. If you have a concussion, the sooner you start treatment, the faster your recovery will be. Lingering symptoms often mean the brain needs more active, guided support to heal properly.
With the right evaluation and a targeted recovery plan, you can make measurable progress — and reclaim the life, activities, and confidence you’ve been missing.
Our Proven Approach to Concussion Recovery
At Concussion Management of New York, we go beyond simply treating symptoms — we help you truly heal by restoring brain health, rebuilding resilience, and guiding you through every phase of your recovery journey with personalized, science-based care.
Step 1: Comprehensive Concussion Evaluation
We start with an in-depth neurological assessment to understand how your brain and body are functioning after your injury.
This includes cognitive testing, balance and coordination evaluations, visual tracking assessments, and a thorough symptom review to identify the specific areas that need support.
Step 2: Personalized Recovery Plan
Based on your evaluation, we create a customized treatment plan tailored to your unique symptoms, goals, and recovery timeline.
Your plan may include targeted therapies to improve cognitive function, memory, balance training, visual rehabilitation, and gradual return-to-activity guidance — all designed to support full, lasting healing.
Step 3: Ongoing Support and Reassessment
Recovery isn’t linear — and we’re with you every step of the way.
We regularly reassess your progress, adjust your plan as needed, and provide continuous support and education to help you confidently return to work, school, sports, and daily life — stronger, safer, and fully restored.

Hear From Others Who Found Hope and Healing With Us
Real stories. Real recoveries. Real results.
To start I just want to give my biggest thank you to Dr. Gometz and the team for helping me get back to my normal self. They were really supportive and clear when explaining the ins and outs of what had happened, what was happening, and the future steps needed to make sure I’d get better. It was very clear from the start that I would be in good hands, and that the team really cared.
I had moderate to severe concussion symptoms, and I found this place in the early phase of recovery. I don’t think I would have been able to recover to my regular sports activities let alone the work fully if I didn’t work with the team here. The care team is extremely knowledgeable, attentive and friendly. If you have a concussion I would not waste any time and just come to this place. I highly recommend this practice.
Dr Gometz was extremely thorough in helping me through concussion recovery, taking the time to explain everything, and providing a ton of follow up care. Everyone on the team was so friendly and knowledgable. Their program was truly comprehensive and tackled the problem from every angle. Would trust Dr Gometz and his team for any future concussions (but hopefully not *knocks on wood*)
Dr. Gometz and the whole team at Concussion Management of NY are incredible. I’ve seen many doctors over the years for concussions and Dr. Gometz is one of the few who keeps up with the latest best practices and gives you actionable ways to get better. Couldn’t recommend more highly if you are looking for concussion care in the city.
Dr. Gometz + team are incredible. Concussions come with so much conflicting information, requiring you to parse through extra crap when that’s literally the last thing your brain can do. Dr. Gometz is so clear and thorough, while also being incredibly kind and patient. Going to CM of NY was a pivotal turning point in my recovery.
