Braverman earned his undergraduate degree from Brandeis University in 1979, and his medical degree from New York University School of Medicine in 1983.^[3]

Braverman served as clinical assistant professor of integrative medicine in neurological surgery at Weill Cornell Medical College (2008–2013), assistant attending physician at Cabrini Medical Center, and instructor in psychiatry at New York University School of Medicine.^[4] He is a member of the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine, the American Society of Bariatric Physicians, the American Neuropsychiatric Association, the Quantitative EEG Board, and the American Society of Addiction Medicine.^[5][6]

Braverman is the founder and medical director of the Place For Achieving Total Health (PATH) Medical, PC, a medical practice where his focus is brain health, and he promotes the use of hormone replacement therapy and dietary supplements.^[7][8][9] He operates Total Health Nutrients, Inc., and Total Health Nutrients, LLC, which market dietary supplements through PATH and online. Quackwatch has stated that PATH promotes and sells questionable health products, and has also accused Braverman of promoting quackery.^[10]

Temporary suspension of New Jersey Medical License (1996) edit

In July 1996, Braverman's license to practice medicine in New Jersey was suspended by the New Jersey Board of Medical Examiners after finding that he repeatedly misdiagnosed his patients and prescribed them inappropriate treatments.^[11] The New York Times also noted that Braverman has a radio show on which he advocated for alternative medicine.^[11]

Braverman's license was reinstated by the Board in May 1997. The board reprimanded Braverman for keeping inadequate records, performing an incomplete examination of a patient’s wrist, and practicing medicine while under suspension. The Board noted that “while any violation may have been unintentional and may have been based upon the advice of counsel, Respondent acknowledges responsibility therefor.”

The Board stated that “although the allegations at the inception of the case appeared to warrant a summary suspension based on the materials presented at the time, the Parties agree that, ultimately, based on substantial additional evidence adduced at the hearing, the suspension proved unwarranted.” Braverman agreed to reimburse the state $20,000 to cover part of the costs from the investigation.^[2]
