Who this is for: Written for practices in Palm Coast, Bunnell and Flagler Beach considering mobile testing, and for the retirees and seasonal residents they serve.

Key takeaways

  • Flagler is a long way from our base and is not a regular route. Call 813-709-3771 to confirm before referring.
  • Testing days here, if scheduled, may be infrequent. Practices with steady volume can make regular scheduling more practical.
  • I-95 truck traffic, Palm Coast's roundabouts and A1A beach traffic each carry different risks.
  • Any older adult on a blood thinner who hits their head needs prompt emergency evaluation.
  • Seasonal residents can have records shared through authorized channels.

The northeast coast

Palm Coast, Bunnell, Flagler Beach and nearby communities sit between St. Augustine and Daytona Beach. Braintree is based in Tampa Bay, a long drive away, and has no Flagler location. Flagler is not part of our regular routes. Call 813-709-3771 before referring.

We'll tell you honestly whether and when testing days are possible, rather than overpromise.

Roads and crash patterns

Heavy interstate traffic in Florida
Even low-speed collisions in traffic can jolt the head and neck.

I-95 carries long-distance and truck traffic through the county, while US-1 and State Road A1A serve local and coastal travel. Palm Coast's wide parkways and roundabouts, and A1A's beach traffic, bring their own risks. Seasonal visitors add congestion.

A retirement-heavy community

Palm Coast has many retirees. Older adults face particular risks after a head injury, including bleeding when they take blood thinners. Our older adults guide explains what to watch for.

If a patient's provider has an office closer to our routes, the provider may choose to schedule them there.

Why distance shapes what we can offer

Braintree testing takes place at the referring provider’s office.

Because Flagler is far from our base, testing days may be infrequent, and we will be honest about that. Practices with steady referral volume may help make regular scheduling practical. Where the patient's provider also has an office closer to our routes, the provider may choose to schedule there.

Reports

Where testing is scheduled, a neurologist interprets the report before the referring provider is sent a copy. We diagnose. You treat.

Coastal emergencies

Golf cart and bicycle crashes on Palm Coast's paths count too. If confusion, weakness, a seizure, more than one bout of vomiting or a steadily worsening headache follows, call 911 or go to the ER.
