About us

Dr. Palmer is a Psychiatrist and Neurologist who specializes in the comprehensive care of complex neuropsychiatric conditions. His clinical focus is on treating mood, anxiety, impulse control, and cognitive symptoms in patients with brain diseases, especially when prior treatments have not been effective. He sees patients both in the department of Neurology as well as in Interventional Psychiatry.
His research focuses on developing and improving access to personalized, targeted neuromodulatory therapies such as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), deep brain stimulation (DBS), and focused ultrasound (FUS), and he has presented at numerous national and international conferences on his work in this area. He is the co-founder of the Neurohumanities Network, a national group which focuses on the intersection of the arts, humanities, and neurosciences. Through collaborations in psychiatry, neurology, neurosurgery, neuroscience, and rehabilitation, his goal is to provide a bridge to break down the barriers in the care of brain disorders.
