Biography

Q. Mark Adams, MD, MS, MBA, BS ChE, is a Faculty Associate in the Department of Neurology at UT Southwestern Medical Center.  Following completion of his Neurology Residency training at UT Southwestern, he opened a solo Neurology practice, which remained active until stepping into his current position in 2020.  Although Dr. Adams has special interest in MS and other Neuroimmunologic disorders, he remains intrigued by the great variety and complexity of general Neurology, including epilepsy, Parkinson's, migraine, peripheral neurology, Dystonia and other clinical applications of botulinum toxin.

Dr. Adams earned his medical degree at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio.  He holds, in addition, a bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin, a master's degree in business administration from Texas Christian University, and a master's degree in Applied Mathematics from the University of Texas at Arlington.

Certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology, Dr. Adams is a longtime member of the American Academy of Neurology.  For a number of years, Dr. Adams has served as an adjunct instructor and lecturer in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Texas at Arlington, and worked as a chemical engineer for several years before attending medical school.  He is a member of national honor societies in the fields of chemical engineering, business and mathematics.
