MIAMI, FL – July 7, 2026 – Neurologist Michael Todinca, M.D., who specializes in neuromuscular medicine, has joined Baptist Health Miami Neuroscience Institute, part of Baptist Health Brain & Spine Care. He diagnoses and treats a wide range of neuromuscular and neurologic conditions and performs advanced diagnostic testing, including electromyography and nerve conduction studies (EMG/NCS).
Dr. Todinca brings nearly a decade of postgraduate medical experience and a strong commitment to patient-centered care. His clinical focus includes peripheral neuropathies — particularly immune-mediated conditions such as chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) and Guillain-Barré syndrome — as well as myasthenia gravis, myopathies, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and other neuromuscular disorders. He also treats radiculopathies, entrapment neuropathies and genetic neuromuscular diseases.
“We are pleased to welcome Dr. Todinca to our growing team of neurologists,” said Diego Torres-Russotto, M.D., chair of neurology at Miami Neuroscience Institute. “His expertise in neuromuscular medicine and his thoughtful, patient-focused approach to care will be a valuable resource for our community.”
Before joining Baptist Health, Dr. Todinca completed a neuromuscular medicine fellowship at the University of Rochester Medical Center, following a neurology residency and an internal medicine internship at Stony Brook University Hospital. He earned his medical degree from SUNY Downstate Medical Center and a bachelor’s degree in biology with cum laude distinction from SUNY Geneseo.
In addition to his clinical work, Dr. Todinca has contributed to research in neuromuscular disease, including published work on facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) in the journal Muscle & Nerve. He remains active in professional organizations such as the American Academy of Neurology and continues to stay current with advances in his field through national and international conferences.
Dr. Todinca is committed to building strong relationships with his patients and helping them better understand their health. “My approach to patient care centers on listening carefully to each patient’s concerns and working together to develop a personalized treatment plan,” he said. “I believe that educating patients about their condition empowers them to take an active role in their care.”
Fluent in English and proficient in Spanish, Dr. Todinca values clear communication and strives to create a supportive environment for every patient. He also has a strong interest in teaching and mentoring medical students, residents and fellows.
Dr. Todinca will see patients at 8950 North Kendall Drive, Suite 104W, Miami.
