Biography

Sasha Zivkovic, MD, PhD, is a neurologist with a focus on diagnosing and treating a range of neuromuscular disorders.

These include including hereditary sensory and motor neuropathies (genetic disorders affecting peripheral nerves, leading to sensory loss and muscle weakness), amyloid neuropathies (where abnormal protein deposits, called amyloids, accumulate in nerves), Guillain-Barré Syndrome (an acute autoimmune disorder where the body's immune system attacks the peripheral nerves, causing weakness and paralysis), and POEMS Syndrome (a rare blood disorder causing nerve damage, enlarged organs, hormone issues, abnormal blood cells, and skin changes).

As a professor of neurology at Yale School of Medicine, Dr. Zivkovic serves as the academic chief of neuromuscular medicine and is the clinical director of the Yale CMTA (Charcot Marie Tooth Association) Center of Excellence for adults. His work aims to advance the understanding and management of complex neuromuscular conditions, particularly those with genetic or immunological components.

Dr. Zivkovic received his medical and doctoral degrees from the University of Zagreb in Croatia.
