Charlie Steele

My name is Charlie Steele. After an accident in 2020, I was left with a concussion and a permanent brain injury. Throughout my many years of treatment for my condition, I have had a variety of experiences with numerous doctors, many of whom have been great, while others have forced me to grow and change to advocate for myself and get the care I need. 

My inspiration to join this project was twofold: firstly, to help educate and inform people about how concussions can impact individuals in various ways and secondly, to share my experiences with concussion care over the years so others can better navigate their own concussion care. It is my hope that through hearing my story and learning about my experiences, you will better understand the complexities of the significant impact concussions can have and treat those with concussions with the patience and time they require.
