How did you fall in love with your field?

I took a psychology course in high school and found myself absolutely fascinated by the brain. That fascination only grew through college and into medical school, making neurology my dream choice as a medical subspecialty. I specialized further in movement disorders because we deal with many chronic neurodegenerative conditions, and it’s a privilege to be the neurologist who is with the patient and their family as they navigate through it.

Three things people may not know about me:

  • Neurology is truly a family affair for me — my older sister works with brain and spinal cord injury patients as an occupational therapist, my twin sister is a neurology resident here at UNMC, and my brother-in-law is a fellow in movement disorders here!
  • My twin and I have been to 100s of concerts and have gotten to meet most of our favorite bands. We’ve waited 8+ hours in Nebraska winters to be in the front row.
  • I come from a family of true Nebraskans. My grandfather was presented the Pioneer Award for our family farming the same land for over 100 years.

    Dr. Erin Smith and her nurse are wonderful providers. They both work so well together and do their best to make the patient feel comfortable.

They help to make the process so much better. They are BOTH an asset to the clinic.
