Ascension St. Vincent Evansville is pleased to welcome the physicians and staff of Midwest Neurological P.C. to the Ascension Medical Group (AMG) team. The group comprises three board-certified physicians specializing in neurology: Carla Brandt, MD, Francis Kadiyamkuttiyil, MD and Faris Fadheel, MD.
Clinical teams at Ascension St.Vincent Evansville and Midwest Neurological P.C. have worked together to provide high-quality neurology care to patients for many years. We know that through this new partnership, we will continue to build and deliver outstanding neurological care to the community.
"We are thrilled to embark on this new chapter of growth and innovation with this group of specialists that have served our community for three decades. Our top priority remains unwavering — providing high-quality, compassionate care to patients and their families," says Dr. Chad Perkins, Regional Chief Medical Officer, AMG Evansville. "This acquisition aligns perfectly with our commitment to enhancing healthcare services and addressing the evolving needs of the community we serve. We are dedicated to ensuring a seamless transition that ultimately benefits our patients, staff and the entire region.”
In August of 2023, we announced the opening of the new Thrombectomy Suite, a major advancement in stroke care. This technology uses multiple X-rays to give the physician a 3-D, live look at the stroke-causing blood clot to quickly and efficiently remove it. Offering our patients the best chance at recovery. Our neurologists are involved in the care of these patients from early in their hospital course through their outpatient neurological follow-up care. The Midwest Neurological, P.C., physicians joining the Ascension Medical Group brings together the care team, making follow-up care easier to navigate for patients and their families.
As part of this acquisition, we have worked to onboard our new team members so they are ready to begin seeing patients immediately. We are renovating the Ascension St. Vincent Evansville Medical Office Building East, located at 801 St. Mary's Drive, to accommodate our growing practice. We anticipate the construction will be completed by the end of June 2024.
Until construction is completed, Drs. Brandt, Kadiyamkuttiyil and Fadheel will continue to see patients at their current location: 1312 Professional Boulevard, Evansville, IN 47714.
