Bringing
Brain Medicine
to Maine
Brain Medicine is a medical specialty combining neurology, psychiatry, and related fields to more effectively treat brain-based disorders.
At Brain Health Maine, we put this integration into practice. We believe a comprehensive understanding of each person’s unique history; their physical and psychiatric experiences; and their specific life conditions is necessary to inform accurate diagnoses and clinically meaningful treatments.
Dr. Alyson Maloy, MD, founded Brain Health Maine as a center of excellence for integrated neurologic and psychiatric care. She offers compassionate, evidence‑based medical care for brain‑based disorders, which are psychiatric, neurologic, or a combination of multiple causes, in a comfortable, responsive setting. Her evaluations are comprehensive and examine all contributing factors to your condition. Her treatments are likewise comprehensive, including neurologic, psychiatric, and other perspectives to inform recommendations and tailor treatment.
