About Me

Dr. Kirk: Hi, my name is S. Thomas Kirk and I am a physician board certified in Neurology with additional training in epilepsy/EEG interpretation, and I completed additional specialization during a year of Sleep Medicine Fellowship. I completed my Neurology Residency in the vast medical center in Houston at Baylor College of Medicine and completed my Sleep Medicine Fellowship at Duke University in Durham. I created this on my own time as an educational source for whoever wants my explanation on these topics. I have found that patients are good stewards of their own health if they have the knowledge to do so. I love to try and educate my patients and answer their questions. Please submit a question here that might benefit you or someone else. Or submit a photo or article you want me to post or address. I won't be able to answer/post/address everything, but I'll try to pick discerningly. sleepandneurology@gmail.com
