  • My insights on BL Podcast

    Let me say that Dr. Correa and Dr. Peters are very knowledgable and personable in regard to various neurological conditions. I love how they are very neutral when they interview various individuals and speak to various experts on specific neurological disorders. As a fellow healthcare provider (SLP), thank you for all that you do! I hope you both keep this podcast going !

  • Review

    This used to be a high quality informative site. Katy Peters brings down the critical information to a silly simplified level, insulting and wasteful to listen to. Highly important to people dealing with brain injury but recent shows are poor quality , get speaks who have the issues, not talk about her childhood dance class.

  • Very informative about the Brain

    After having relatives die from MS and Dementia, I was looking for something that would teach me about the Brain and this Podcast has not only done that but has made me aware of how many people are dealing with problems with their brains. I abbreciate the helpful sources that the host and guest give on each episode.
