Trained at the University of Cincinnati.  M.D. degree in 1987.  His fellowship work was in Chicago –with Michael Alan Taylor M.D. – a 2 year research fellowship in Neuropsychiatry focusing on both children and adults. The fellowship training was also guided by Dragomir M. Vuckovich M.D. the Chairman of Neurology. Dr Best specializes in disorders of the brain which harm cognitive ability and emotional health, especially in relation to developmental onset (learning disability, early onset of brain injury or disease).  During the fellowship he also trained in the use of functional brain imaging (PET) in the diagnosis and prediction of response to medication with Malcolm Cooper, M.D. at the University of Chicago and in the use of psychological measures of personality to better select the specific medication appropriate to the specific pattern of depression that an individual patient exhibits.
