About
The Center For Pediatric Excellence in Smyrna houses the Derek Johnson, M.D. Concussion Clinic, focused on concussion evaluation and management in children and teens. Care begins with a detailed history and neurological examination, and Dr. Johnson may use standardized tools such as the SCAT5 questionnaire and computerized testing like King-Devick or ImPACT to gauge severity. Treatment emphasizes a temporary reduction in physical and mental activity, monitoring for worsening symptoms, and a gradual return to school and sport.
