Mina Johnson is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and a graduate of Columbia University Medical Center. She is affiliated with NYU Langone Health - Manhattan and Bellevue Hospital Center where she is currently a clinical instructor and an attending NP specializing in the treatment of people with serious and persistent mental illness in the civilian and forensic inpatient settings.

Dr. Hutchinson is a board-certified neurologist and senior faculty at the Icahn School of Medicine, Mount Sinai, Manhattan. His clinical interests include headaches, dementia, concussion, traumatic brain injury (TBI), Parkinson's Disease, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, anxiety, and REM sleep disorders. He has an extensive scientific background and brings a science-based approach to solving clinical problems.
During his residency at the University of Washington, Hutchinson used his knowledge of chaos theory to propose a new way of treating status epilepticus, the most lethal form of epilepsy. The treatment proved successful and is now standard-of-care in the US. Hutchinson later did a sabbatical at Queen Square, London, where Ian McDonald was pioneering the use of beta interferon as the first treatment for multiple sclerosis.
After residency training, Hutchinson underwent a neuroimaging fellowship in Los Angeles.
After arriving at NYU in 1994, Hutchinson pioneered the use of cholinesterase inhibitors as a treatment for the dementia of Parkinson's disease. At the time this was considered forbidden because it might make the patient physically worse, but Hutchinson argued that this premise was ill-conceived. Today, cholineserase inhibitors are standard-of-care in Parkinson's dementia. Hutchinson later developed a new way of treating acute relapses in multiple sclerosis, which puts the patient in charge, and has yielded impressive long-term results.
During his time at NYU, Hutchinson made early contributions to functional MRI, discovering that regional brain activations during cognitive tasks are accompanied by widespread deactivations. In structural imaging, Hutchinson combined physics, neuropathology, and image processing to develop a robust MRI biomarker for Parkinson's disease.
In addition to certification in neurology, Hutchinson is certified in neuroimaging (MRI and CT of the brain and spine), which combines neuroanatomy, neuropathology, and neurophysiology, fields that form the unique base of clinical neurology.
Dr. Hutchinson holds a Ph.D. in molecular physics and is the inventor of spatial sensitivity encoding for MRI - sometimes referred to as parallel MRI - which is now the acknowledged standard for clinical MRI. He is currently exploring a possible extension of this to ultrafast imaging.
I am a board certified nurse practitioner, and I provide holistic, patient-centered care through medication management and psychotherapy. I have experience working with individuals suffering from depression, anxiety, trauma, and attention difficulties. I start by conducting a thorough initial evaluation, taking into account medical conditions, current life circumstances, and give unique consideration to each individual's strengths, stage of development, and cultural factors. My goal is to create a collaborative environment to ensure that individual preferences and needs guide treatment.
My career goals have been focused on the LGBTQ population working both as president of AGLP: The Association of LGBTQ Psychiatrists and Director of Psychiatry at Callen-Lorde Community Health Center, one of the largest LGBTQ Medical Centers in the world.
I provide psychotherapy and/or medication management. My training is largely psychodynamic but I use behavioral therapies when needed.

“For some reason I thought I had an appointment with Neurologist Dr. Patel. His qualifications were impressive on the website. When I arrived I was told that Dr. Patel was in New York not in Boca Raton. I was told that I would see Sharit Sigalit. I asked if she was a neurologist and was told yes. I explained to Dr. Sigalit that my right hand occasionally shakes involuntarily. I was given nerve tests and a cap on my head test. I was then told I had to get a Brain DaTscan never being told what the current tests I took revealed or what the Brain DaTscan was for. When I came home I looked up Dr. Shavit was not a neurologist but a nurse. I check with Rayus who was recommended to do the Brain DaTscan and was told it involved at least 40 minutes flat on my back. I explained that if I am in that position it is extremely painful for me and I could not stay still as required so I do not want to take it unless I can be in a sitting position. The representative said that was the only way I could do it. Since I have done research and learned the result would not be certain. So I will not take the test.
I have an appointment with the nurse for April 13th at 1:30 pm which now I wish to cancel. I also request that the results of the tests done be sent to me..
