ECU Physicians Neurology Services is located at the former East Carolina Neurology practice, which was a trusted provider of neurological services that opened in 1977. In 2013, the practice joined with the Brody School of Medicine and Vidant Medical Center of East Carolina University.

In addition to his clinical position, he serves as a clinical association professor of neurology at East Carolina University.
