The clinic is directed by Dr. Maria Cecilia Boix Braga, a clinical neuropsychologist.

Clinical Evaluations

Dr. Boix Braga provides comprehensive neuropsychological assessment across Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and the surrounding South Florida area, measuring memory, attention, executive functioning, processing speed, and language to characterize dementia, traumatic brain injury, and other neurological conditions. Her specialized work includes capacity determinations in the setting of neurological and psychiatric illness, evaluation before and after surgery for temporal lobe epilepsy, distinguishing psychogenic non-epileptic events from epileptic seizures, candidacy evaluation for deep brain stimulation, and cognitive evaluation surrounding other brain surgery.

Medicolegal and Immigration Evaluations

The Miami and Fort Lauderdale clinic serves attorneys, insurers, third-party administrators, and government agencies statewide. Forensic services include independent medical examinations for personal injury, workers’ compensation, and disability claims, consultation and review of neuropsychological and medical records for case evaluation, and expert witness testimony at deposition and trial. Dr. Boix Braga also advises counsel on test selection, record review, and rebuttal analysis of opposing expert reports, and completes immigration evaluations for asylum, extreme hardship, and VAWA petitions. All work is billed hourly. NSG accepts no letters of protection and no contingency-based fee arrangements, so the fee never depends on the outcome of the case.
