Concussion testing near Melbourne
Concussion testing at your provider's office in Melbourne, Palm Bay and Titusville
Brevard County is about 72 miles long and narrow, split by the Indian River Lagoon. Instead of sending an injured patient across Melbourne & the Space Coast to a testing center, Braintree brings objective, physician-reviewed concussion and TBI testing to the practice already treating them.
After a car accident in Melbourne
Causeway traffic, I-95 commuters and the Beachline to Orlando create a mix of high-speed and congested driving, especially around launch days and beach weekends. If a patient is dealing with those symptoms after a crash on I-95 or anywhere else in the area, their treating provider can arrange a head injury evaluation after an accident. Availability and scheduling are coordinated with the referring provider.

Does cruise and launch traffic really matter?
Large events create sudden stops on causeways and highways, a common setting for rear-end collisions.
For local providers, attorneys and patients
Concussion testing for practices in Melbourne, Palm Bay, Titusville and Cocoa Beach
If you practice in Palm Bay, Viera or Titusville, you know Brevard is long and narrow. A patient in Mims and a patient in Micco can be more than an hour apart, and both deserve testing without a long drive.
Launch days bring tens of thousands of visitors onto US-1, SR 528 and the causeways, creating sudden congestion that leads to rear-end and lane change crashes.
Melbourne PI attorneys handle cases from beach traffic on A1A, commuter crashes on I-95 and the Beachline. Braintree's testing at the treating provider's office documents objective findings close to home.
Space Coast launch day traffic
- SR 528 and SR 401 near Port Canaveral: launch and cruise traffic
- US-1 in Titusville: viewing crowds parked along the road
- Pineda and Eau Gallie causeways: bridge congestion
- I-95 at Palm Bay: commuter crashes
Main roads we cover: I-95, US-1, SR 528 (the Beachline), SR 520, Wickham Road and the Pineda Causeway.

After a crash in Melbourne and the Space Coast
FLHSMV recorded 8,396 crashes in Brevard County in 2024. Many people walk away from a collision feeling fine, then notice headaches, fogginess or trouble sleeping days later.
Roads where crashes add up
Drivers in Melbourne and the Space Coast share I-95, US-1, SR-528 (Beachline), Wickham Road and SR-520. Heavy traffic concentrates around I-95 through Melbourne and Palm Bay, the Beachline toward Port Canaveral and US-1 along the Indian River. Rear-end and side-impact collisions on these routes can jolt the head and neck even at moderate speeds, which is why a head injury check after any crash is worth considering.
Emergency care comes first
If you have a severe headache, repeated vomiting, confusion, slurred speech or weakness, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. Major hospitals serving the area include Health First Holmes Regional Medical Center, Health First Palm Bay Hospital, Parrish Medical Center and Orlando Health Melbourne Hospital. Braintree does not replace emergency care. We help people who have been seen, sent home and are still not feeling like themselves.
