Dr. Barry Fleischer, D.O. Dr. Fleischer joined the Snow Canyon Clinic neurology staff three years ago. Prior to joining the Clinic he served as a staff neurologist for the United States Army, in locations to include the Madigan Army Medical Center in Fort Lewis, Washington and Landstuhl Regional Medical Center, in Landstuhl, Germany. Dr. Fleischer is Board Certified in neurology, and his interests are general in nature, but with special emphasis on sleep medicine and epilepsy. While on duty, Major Barry Fleischer, D.O. served in the position of "Staff Sleep Medicine Physician" while at Landstuhl.Dr. Fleischer graduated with High Honors from the University of California at Davis, where his undergraduate major was animal physiology. Four years later he graduated from medical school at the Michigan State University College of Osteopathic Medicine, East Lansing, Michigan. He then completed an internal medicine internship and a neurology residency at the Madigan Army Medical Center. Dr. Fleischer has received numerous honors and recognitions, including Army Achievement Medals, scholarships, Phi Kappa Phi National Honor Society; and he has consistently scored between the 98th and 99th percentiles on National Board Medical Exams. He is a member of the American Academy of Neurology, the American Osteopathic Association, the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, and he is a member of the Board of the American Board of Medical Specialties. Dr. Fleischer has under taken basic research in the kinetics of certain organic chemistry reactions, studies relating to hormonal factors involved in giving birth, and he has studied unusual neurological syndromes, such as "Acute Stroke Presenting with Alien Hand Sign." He served with distinction on the Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee while in Landstuhl, and was involved in the study Medical Utilization Evaluation of Gabapentin. Dr. Fleischer has made many presentations to various professional groups, including Grand Rounds at the University of Washington, and while at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center. These include topics such as "Neurosarcoidosis" (a rare but important neurological illness), a "Postpartum Cerebral Angiography Case Report," "Neurologic Complications of Pregnancy," and presentations relating to the effects of acute alcohol and drug toxicity on the brain. Dr. Fleischer is a devoted family person, and he treats his patients with the same dignity and respect. He is a very contemplative physician, and that is good because it means "he thinks," and by setting that example he sets the standard high for the other physicians; because a good physician must think about their patient carefully and thoroughly. Leisure time might find him completing a marathon in Dublin, Ireland, or in St. George. |
