What does Brooke Henschel do at Neuroscience Group?
Brooke is a neurology APNP at Neuroscience Group, providing patient care at both the Appleton and Neenah locations. She evaluates and manages patients with neurological conditions, develops individualized care and treatment plans, and takes the time to ensure patients and their family members feel comfortable and fully understand all aspects of their diagnosis and what their treatment involves. Her background in acute hospital neurology means she brings familiarity with both the inpatient and outpatient phases of neurological care, which can be particularly valuable for patients managing conditions that have required or may require hospital-level evaluation or treatment at some point in their care journey.
What is the difference between seeing Brooke Henschel and a physician at Neuroscience Group?
As an Advanced Practice Nurse Practitioner, Brooke works collaboratively with and under the oversight of the neurology physicians at Neuroscience Group. She is trained to evaluate, manage, and educate patients across a broad scope of neurological conditions, and her membership in the American Academy of Neurology reflects a commitment to neurology-specific clinical standards. For many patients in the neurology program, Brooke provides the same attentive, individualized care as a physician visit, with access to the full clinical resources of Neuroscience Group's neurology team. Her hospital neurology background also means she is comfortable evaluating patients whose conditions have a more complex or acute history, and she coordinates with the physicians when specialized expertise or procedural intervention is needed.
What conditions does Brooke Henschel help manage?
Brooke helps manage a range of neurological conditions as part of Neuroscience Group's neurology team at the Appleton and Neenah locations. Her prior experience in acute hospital neurology gives her clinical depth across conditions that present in both inpatient and outpatient settings, including stroke, headache and migraine, multiple sclerosis, movement disorders, seizure disorders, memory concerns, and other brain and nervous system conditions managed by the neurology team. Patients with complex neurological histories or those transitioning from hospital to outpatient care benefit from her familiarity with both care settings.
What is Brooke's approach to patient care?
Brooke is deeply passionate about providing the highest quality care to her patients and their families. She wants every patient to feel as comfortable as possible and to leave each visit with a clear understanding of their diagnosis and treatment plan, not just a prescription or a next appointment. She will always advocate for care that is genuinely best for each patient, and her goal is to leave a positive, lasting impression on everyone she sees. That commitment to clarity, comfort, and advocacy is reflected in how she communicates, how she involves family members when helpful, and how she approaches the relationship with each individual patient over time.
