Practice statement
New England Institute for Neurology and Headache provides holistic health care to children, teens, and adults in Stamford, Connecticut. The practice maximizes healing with comprehensive care from a team of experts in neurology, psychology, behavioral medicine, and physical therapy.
The team sees patients in the office and through telemedicine. They even make old-fashioned house calls to consult with and treat patients who can’t reach the office or prefer to stay home. Patients also have the option of concierge services, paying an annual one-time fee in return for a certain number of visits and benefits, like connecting with providers by email and cell phone.
The New England Institute for Neurology and Headache team chose to be a direct-pay provider because it allows them to customize each patient’s care instead of being limited by insurance company approval.
Staying out-of-network also gives them the freedom to spend more time with patients, schedule same- and next-day appointments, and deliver advanced services like ketamine infusions, lumbar punctures, muscle and nerve biopsies, as well as genetic testing.
The team is dedicated to developing new treatments through clinical research. Their involvement in clinical trials allows patients to participate in research and receive cutting-edge treatments.
Patients receive personalized care for nerve-related disorders, including back pain, neuropathy, dementia, and movement disorders.
The team has extensive experience treating migraines and other severe headaches. They operate the NeuroFast Drop-in Headache Center for anyone in the community needing immediate care for a severe headache.
As concussion specialists, the team performs baseline computerized cognitive testing and supports each person’s return to optimal health with concussion rehabilitation.
Patients needing help for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) find exceptional care covering all their needs, from medication and behavioral interventions to parent education and physical therapy.

Reviews
I am very pleased and confident with the care and treatment I’ve received at NEINH. Dr McAllister and his skilled staff are very good in explaining the study and monitoring the effects. They have a number of ongoing research studies at any time. The office building is conveniently located just off the Merritt Parkway.
Dr. McCallister provides truly exceptional personalized care in a welcoming calm environment. I appreciate that he greets me in the waiting room, on time and walks me back for my visits; there is no rush while we talk over updates since my last visit and discuss potential changes to my treatment plan. He is fully engaged and cares deeply. Our dialogs are clear and down to earth— he is always available to help. Even though my illness has caused many life changes, the team at NEINH has been a source of comfort because I know my doctor and health care team are behind me working to solve whatever may come.
The best doctor in the field
Always excellent! Thoughtful and reliable!
Dr. McAllister has been our family neurologist for the past 17 years. He always makes himself available for questions or concerns. We consider him a friend besides being an excellent Neurologist!
My experience with NEINH has been positive. The questions I bring there are always answered sending me home with a better understanding of my path to improvement. I feel fortunate to be able to try new medications without the heavy costs that are typical of a regular doctor’s visit. Dr McAllister is a very experienced and knowledgeable neurologist allowing a patient to be confident and comfortable getting treatment here. The staff is also very capable, friendly and professional. I completely trust the care I’ve received at NEINH.
Dr. McAllister is pleasant, knowledgeable and caring.
Dr. McAllister thinks of treatments that none of my other doctors have thought of. He has lots of ideas and he’s helped me a lot.
Very kind and considerate toward patients who are dealing with challenging circumstances of health.
Life changing. Absolutely took the time to go though everything and we left with a solution! Will be forever grateful for the expertise of Dr. Mullins
FIVE Stars all the way. Dr McAllister and his entire team are rockstars. I had years of chronic headaches. Dr. McAllister’s treatment has been life changing. Don’t think twice, call and make your appointment!
Very well taken care of. Dr. McCallister is a Kind considerate doctor and the staff is super great too.
one of the sweetest people
I am thrilled to be participating in the spasticity study at neinh. Testing a new medication and gaining knowledge about my post-stroke side effects helps me to move forward as a better version of myself. Their skilled and knowledgeable team has given me confidence that my health is in good hands. I would recommend to anyone with health issues to check out their list of studies to see whether there’s something that might be beneficial to them.
His treatment helped my problem immensely.
Dr. Mullin is amazing. She is an expert on migraine and has so much empathy for her patients.

I have been seeing Dr. McAllister since my brain injury and he has been such an amazing advocate. The entire experience, from the moment I walked in, was fantastic. The staff was friendly and efficient, and Dr. McAllister was not only knowledgeable but also took the time to address all my questions and concerns. I lO left my appointment feeling confident in the care I received. I recommend him highly.
Excellent care.
Dr McAllister is incredibly knowledgeable, patient and accommodating to my needs. I have been a patient of him for a while now, and he has done more for me than the five neurologist that I went to prior. He’s always willing to take time and speak to me to understand my life situation to better treat my migraines. I highly recommend him to whoever I cross paths with suffering from headaches. I am very blessed to have crossed as with this tremendous physician.
All the staff are very nice. I would definitely recommend to others.
Dr. Peter McAllister is the most phenomenal Neurologist I have ever met and through my countless years of migraines and many other doctors he has been the one doctor who has helped me greatly. I highly recommend him and his fantastic nurses and staff who are always compassionate and helpful.
My wife and I had a very informative visit with Dr. McAllister, Katie and staff. We are looking forward to working together with NEINH in the future if selected for the clinical trial.
This is truly a top tier fasciliteert for the treatment of complex migraine disorders to receive effective treatment and compassionate care.
The people who run this practice are very kind and do their best to work around your schedule. They always have me a call to make sure I didn’t miss appointments and even though my study ended early. They tried to help me get involved in other studies. If I had advice to give anyone else I would say to be honest about your answers because what ever your testing is going to help others with the problems you are having.
