Originally from northern New Jersey, Dr. Marowitz traveled the east coast of the country for his education. After completing his undergraduate degree in psychology at Stony Brook University in NY, he moved south to Washington D.C. for his Master’s of Arts in Psychology at American University, before completing his doctoral degree at the Florida Institute of Technology School of Psychology. Returning to the northeast, he completed his internship at the Edward P. Boland Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center (formerly the Northampton VAMC) and his fellowship in neuropsychology at Baystate Medical Center. In addition to his clinical work, he is appointed as an assistant professor at UMass Chan Medical School-Baystate and has provided education to residents and medical students  at UMMS-Baystate and Tufts University Medical School, in addition to providing training opportunities for doctoral level psychology students. He has given numerous lectures to local schools, primary care practices, and organizations on neuropsychological practice and sports concussion education and management.

 

Dr. Marowitz is a member of multiple professional organizations, including the National Academy of Neuropsychology, American Psychological Association, Massachusetts Neuropsychology Society, the International Neuropsychology Society, and the Sports Neuropsychology Society.

 

Dr. Marowitz is a lifespan trained neuropsychologist, specializing in evaluations of adults (18-years+) of all ages. However, he provides assessment and management of concussions for individuals 8-years and above as well. Referrals for the following concerns are appropriate:

 

• Adults concerned with mild memory/attentional changes which may reflect early stages of Mild Cognitive Impairment

• Adults experiencing cognitive and behavioral changes concerning for a dementia process, such as Alzheimer’s Disease, Vascular Dementia, Lewy Body Dementia or Frontotemporal Dementia

• Adults with cognitive concerns potentially related to identified or suspected neurological disorders/conditions, including Traumatic Brain Injury, Parkinson’s Disease, Essential Tremor, Multiple Sclerosis, Stroke, Anoxic injuries and Seizure Disorders (Epilepsy)

• Adults with cognitive concerns due to medical conditions such as cardiovascular disease, sleep apnea, chronic pain, side effects of chemotherapy and radiation treatment, or other medication effects

• Adults seeking evaluation of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), including those needing reconfirmation of a diagnosis or establishing a new diagnosis

• Adults with medical or familial risk factors for dementia seeking to establish a neurocognitive baseline (in advance of potential symptoms, to help monitor for any future changes in ability)

• Individual’s ages 8-years+ seeking assessment and management of concussions, including athletes in need of sports concussion management and clearance for return to learn and return to play.

​

Anchored in research and clinical experience, adult-focused neuropsychological assessment can help to differentiate between neurological and psychiatric conditions, establish an individual’s baseline cognitive abilities before a problem arises, determine if a change in cognitive functioning has occurred, identify the potential cause(s) of cognitive difficulties, guide treatment planning and interventions, , and connect individual’s with appropriate resources in the community.
