Care Center 32 joined First Choice Neurology (FCN) in 2015 as a small practice with two dedicated providers focused on delivering compassionate, patient-centered neurological care. While their core values have remained unchanged, the past decade has brought about meaningful growth, enabling them to expand access and better serve the community.

This multidisciplinary team delivers care across multiple neurological subspecialties, including epilepsy and seizure disorders, Alzheimer’s disease, sleep medicine, and multiple sclerosis. Their growth reflects both the evolving needs of the community and a continued commitment to meeting those needs with expertise, compassion, and comprehensive care across their Boca Raton and Delray Beach offices.
How Joining First Choice Neurology Helped Shape Their Growth
Collaboration That Elevates Care
Michele Nesic, Office Manager at Care Center 32 (Neurology Offices of South Florida) said, “Being part of the largest private practice neurology group has allowed us to collaborate with colleagues across Florida, share clinical expertise, stay current with emerging treatments, and connect patients with the right care at the right time. This collaboration extends beyond physicians to include a network of practice managers who work closely together, offering guidance, operational insight, and support to one another whenever needed.”
Expanded Patient Services and Access
Patients choosing a private practice neurology group makes a difference. Unlike hospital-based care, private practice offers more personalized attention, shorter wait times, and greater continuity of care. Patients often see the same neurologist on every visit, building a lasting doctor-patient relationship.
Nesic added, “Through First Choice Neurology’s integrated network of infusion centers, diagnostic services, subspecialty providers, and research collaboration, our patients benefit from coordinated, comprehensive care without unnecessary delays or fragmented referrals.”
Meaningful Operational Support
Behind every strong clinical team is a strong administrative foundation. First Choice Neurology (FCN) has provided the structure and operational support that has helped Care Center 32 function more efficiently and consistently, including:
• Centralized Call Center Support to enhance scheduling efficiency and patient communication
• Dedicated Toxin Team to coordinate injection therapy services with consistency and precision
• Contracting and Credentialing Support to onboard new providers and maintain strong payer relationships
• Revenue Cycle Management and Collections Support to ensure accurate and timely reimbursement
• AI-Enhanced Workflows and Support Tools that reduce administrative burden and allow providers to focus more time on patient care
A Stable Foundation for Sustainable Growth
Nesic further stated, “With FCN’s support, we have been able to expand thoughtfully, investing in new services, welcoming new clinicians, and growing in ways that align with our mission and values. This approach ensures we can continue to evolve while maintaining the personal, attentive care our patients know and trust.
As we reflect on this milestone, we are incredibly grateful to our patients, our staff, and the partnership that has helped us build something strong, connected, and lasting. Here’s to our first decade with First Choice Neurology and to the years ahead. Thank you for being a part of our journey.”
