Specialized Care for Traumatic Brain Injury.

 

Rincon Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation is a multidisciplinary brain injury rehabilitation clinic dedicated to helping people recover from traumatic brain injury and reclaim their independence.

Brain injury can affect far more than what can be seen on a scan. It impacts how people move, think, communicate, feel, work, and navigate daily life.

Dr. Topher Stephenson, M.D., and his team of physicians, therapists, and specialists work together to understand the full picture of each patient’s injury and create a personalized plan focused on recovery, independence, and quality of life.

New Service

TBId by Rincon Neurosciences

TBId is a fully remote TBI screening service built for plaintiffs’ attorneys that delivers a physician-signed report with no clinic visit required, at a fraction of the cost of full neuropsychological testing.

Personalized Care for a Complex Injury

Every brain, and therefore every brain injury, is different. So every treatment plan should be different, too. We combine clinical expertise, specialized assessments, innovative technology, and creative problem-solving to develop individualized care based on each patient’s symptoms, goals, and circumstances.

As a patient’s needs change, their care should change with them.

 

One Team. One Bigger Picture.

Brain injury rehabilitation takes more than one perspective.

At Rincon, collaboration is central to our approach. Our multidisciplinary team works together to understand each patient’s needs, communicate around their goals, and connect the pieces of their care.

That collaboration extends beyond our own clinic walls. Rincon works with consulting neurosurgeons and maintains established relationships with specialized physicians throughout the region, so when a patient needs care we don’t provide in house, we coordinate it directly rather than leaving them to navigate it alone.

Because better care happens when the right people are working together.

Led by Specialized Expertise

Dr. Topher Stephenson, M.D.
Founder & CEO

Double board certified in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation and Brain Injury
Medicine.

Dr. Stephenson has dedicated his career to understanding, diagnosing, and treating traumatic brain injury. Board certified in both Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation and Brain Injury Medicine, he is deeply specialized in the complexities of brain injury and the many ways it can affect a person’s ability to move, think, communicate, work, and live. He founded Rincon as one of the few practices focused exclusively on TBI, bringing together specialized medical and rehabilitative care under one roof.

He also leads Rincon Neurosciences, the practice’s research and innovation arm.
Through his clinical research and development work, Dr. Stephenson is advancing new approaches to identifying, assessing, and documenting brain injury, including TBId. His work is focused not only on improving care today, but on helping shape the future of brain injury medicine.

As a top voice in the field, Dr. Stephenson writes about his research and emerging
advances in brain injury medicine and is invited to speak at conferences and events nationwide. Through his clinical work, research, and education, he brings a perspective that bridges patient care, scientific inquiry, and innovation.

“Before finding Dr. Stephenson and his team at Rincon, I struggled to find anyone who truly understood what I was going through. In my experience, it can be incredibly hard to get anyone in the medical field to take a TBI seriously, and that isolation makes everything harder. Rincon changed that for me. They started with real testing, which finally gave me answers and understanding about what was happening in my brain. Then they built a treatment plan around me, from therapy recommendations to follow ups, and even assigned a social worker to help me navigate the confusing real-world challenges my injury has created in my daily life. They are supportive, educational, and I appreciate how respectful they are of my preferences while still helping me make informed decisions about my care. Most of all, they meet you where you are in your injury and help you move forward. I am still healing, but I finally feel hopeful and
supported.”

“When my attorney first referred me to Rincon, I was nervous walking into that first appointment. I had so many questions and felt my injury was so misunderstood after my accident. But from the moment I arrived, everyone was kind and welcoming, and I immediately felt at ease. I didn't even fully realize I had been diagnosed with a TBI, and over the past two years Rincon helped me understand what I was going through and built a roadmap for recovery that worked at my pace. It truly felt like a team effort, from the front desk to the PAs to Dr. Stephenson, everyone was encouraging me to keep going even through the hard days. Through therapy, functional rehab, and regular appointments, I've been able to rebuild and strengthen my mind in ways I didn't think were possible. A TBI doesn't heal overnight, but looking back I've regained so much
independence, and I'm so grateful to a team that validated my experience, believed in my recovery, and helped me find my way back to myself.”
