About Me
Estevana Isaac, MD is an Assistant Professor in Behavioral Neurology at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. She completed her fellowship in cognitive and behavioral neurology at the University of Pennsylvania’s Memory Center and did her residency in neurology at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. She is a Penn '12 graduate and went on to obtain her MD from Meharry Medical College where she had the opportunity to explore her interest in underserved and marginalized populations. She is board certified in Neurology and UCNS-certified in Behavioral Neurology and Neuropsychiatry.
As a neurologist, her goal is to explore an interdisciplinary community-based intervention, where teams of nurses, social workers, and counselors collaborate to clinically manage culturally diverse families dealing with Alzheimer’s disease, vascular dementia and other neurocognitive syndromes. At Mount Sinai, her plan is to provide access to vulnerable patient populations with diverse cultural backgrounds and limited resources who are living with severe neurologic and mental illness. She will continue to do work that reduces health care disparities and the burden of neurological disease.
