What is First Encounters about?

This chapter describes disorders that can be diagnosed as the patient enters the consulting room by observing closely how he or she turns to close the door, walks toward you, and shakes your hand. Much information is gleaned by inspecting the face, clothes, fingernails, and jewelry or by listening to the voice or smelling the breath. From chronic conditions to congenital disorders to addictions, the competent neurologist will depend first on keen observation in the construction of a diagnosis. Neurological diagnosis requires good detective work; the good neurologists must play at being a “bedside Sherlock Holmes.”
