Waiting Area
A Tour of the Norman Fixel Institute for Neurological Diseases at UF Health
UF Health Norman Fixel Institute for Neurological Diseases
The Fixel Institute was founded on the principle that we serve patients and families.
The waiting area provides a calm, open and welcoming atmosphere.
The waiting area was built with high ceilings and a scenic view, which together symbolize the idea that there is hope even when there is disease.
This sentiment is captured by two paintings from a local artist.
The first painting shows a family suffering from dystonia and the second painting reveals the same family in an identical scene celebrating the “cure day,” after the end of dystonia.
The waiting room was donated by a generous gift from Tyler’s Hope for a Dystonia Cure.
