Because learning is better together

Shared medical appointments (group programs) at Isaac Health provide a unique way to receive medical care while benefiting from community discussions and shared experiences. Our group program, “Lifestyle Medicine for Better Brain Health,” was designed and is often led by Dr. Nadir Bilici, board-certified behavioral neurologist and lifestyle medicine physician at Isaac Health. Each program includes a small group of peers who meet weekly for 8 sessions.
