Dr. Rodrigues began his career in child neurology at the historic Floating Hospital for Children, where he further developed his expertise in pain disorders, including headaches and migraines. His clinical interests in brain injury and movement disorders evolved into a specialized focus in spasticity and dystonia. He provides advanced treatment through chemodenervation with botulinum toxin therapies (Botox, Dysport and Xeomin) and intrathecal baclofen pump therapy for movement disorders associated with conditions such as cerebral palsy, stroke, multiple sclerosis and Parkinson’s disease. Through these minimally invasive approaches, he is committed to helping patients of all ages improve mobility, function and quality of life. Dr. Rodrigues is pleased to bring his broad neurology experience and specialized clinical interests to Precision Neurology and his local community.
Originally from Rhode Island, Dr. Rodrigues relocated to Massachusetts in 2005 to pursue his medical education and establish both his professional career and family life. Outside of his clinical practice, he enjoys spending time with his children, coaching, hiking and visiting the mountains of Vermont.
