Biography

Mathieu Levesque, MD, has been practicing medicine since 2015, previously practicing neurology in Canada where he participated in multiple teaching and research opportunities.
He believes details and patients matter and relationships are important. His attentive ear, a well-placed smile and an honest answer transforms a stressful situation into a better place for patients and families. He believes care shouldn't be a one size-fits-all model but instead, a shared decisional process.
Dr. Levesque welcomes both adults and children for headaches, movement disorders, neuromuscular, neuro-opthalmology, behavioral neurology, epilepsy and other neurological disorders.
He specializes in electroencephalogram (EEG), electromyography (EMG), therapeutic botox, migraine, blepharospasm, hemifacial spasm, excessive drooling, bruxism, spasticity, dystonia and nerve infiltrations.
