- Every report goes to a neurologist for interpretation before the referring provider receives a copy.
- Technicians administer standardized tests. They do not interpret results or give medical advice.
- Credentials and roles of reviewing physicians are listed on this page once confirmed.
- Protocol changes are reviewed by the Clinical Lead before they are adopted.
Leadership
Braintree Health Partners was co-founded by Dr. Jon Kimball, MD, Co-Founder and Clinical Lead, and Ben Thayer, Co-Founder and Co-Owner. Dr. Kimball guides the clinical side of the company: physician review standards, how testing is performed and how findings are reported. Ben leads the partnerships and operations that make mobile testing possible across Florida, and he writes the Concussion Education articles, which Dr. Kimball reviews for clinical accuracy.
Each step, from referral to report delivery, has a named owner, so every report goes through the same review.
Physician review

Every report goes to a neurologist ahead of the neuro evaluation, before a copy is released to the referring provider. The neurologist interprets results from eye-movement, neurocognitive and brain-activity testing alongside the patient's history and symptoms. No single measure is read in isolation. Credentials of the interpreting neurologists will be listed here once they are confirmed.
Technicians
Braintree technicians travel to referring practices with portable equipment and follow standardized procedures. They explain each step, keep patients comfortable, allow breaks and record conditions on the day, such as poor sleep or pain, that the neurologist needs to know. They do not interpret results or give medical advice. Every technician is trained to recognize emergency warning signs and to stop testing and direct the patient to emergency care.

Coordination staff
Coordinators schedule testing days, handle referral intake, communicate with partner practices and help arrange specialty evaluations when treating providers request them. They are the main contact for front desks and case managers.
The neurologist interprets; the treating clinician receives a copy to act on.
How the roles fit together

Referral, scheduling, testing, physician review and report delivery are handled by different people with clear responsibilities. That structure keeps the process consistent from Tampa Bay to Orlando and beyond.
Keeping standards current
Clinical guidance evolves. The team reviews protocols as research and guidelines change, and the Clinical Lead reviews any change to testing procedures before it is adopted. Our principle stays the same: we diagnose, you treat. We describe findings honestly, avoid overstating results and protect patient privacy.
Frequently asked questions
Is the reviewing physician an independent expert for my case?
No. Reports are physician-reviewed diagnostic reports interpreted by a neurologist, with a copy for the treating provider. They are clinical documents, not expert opinions for litigation.
Where can I see reviewing physicians' credentials?
They will be listed on this page once confirmed. Until then, ask our team at 813-709-3771.
Do technicians tell patients what their results mean?
No. Technicians administer testing. A neurologist interprets results, and the treating provider then receives a copy to discuss with the patient.
We diagnose. You treat.
Mobile, physician-reviewed concussion and TBI diagnostics for Florida providers and their accident patients. Reports go to a neurologist ahead of the neuro evaluation; the referring provider then receives a copy for advanced imaging and treatment recommendations.
