I don't think he had a concussion to begin with

Stick with that med device development gig. After asking whether an eighty year old post heart transplant Pt with obvious mobility issues etc. might have health problems last year or so, and now questioning whether Luke had a concussion given extensive eval by two board certified neurologists coupled with his Hx, you might want to reconsider if you ever get the urge to go clinical. Just sayin'.

Do you have any clue the liability of clearing him medically and you're wrong. Medical professionals typically err on the side of caution and given that concussions aren't an exact science yet I could easily see a neurologist saying let's just give him another week. Thanks for checking my credentials, I'm certain YouTube gave you the depth of knowledge you needed to make the assessment.

 

BTW that medical device thing just got nominated for 2017 healthcare tech small business startup of the year

 Yeah, I know a little about liability in healthcare, and elsewhere. Liability, you might say, is my third career and most recent grad prof degree. Another is in a med field with heavy neuro focus. I doubt that Dx would be tossed out unless it was clear from the assessments, or just couldn't be ruled out. Also, think about it, it's gotta be traumatic for him just thinking he got a third. And again, it's a concussion protocol. Tons of pro discretion allowed, but criteria are required to go in, and get out. Then there's the hit. More than sufficient to cause one.

Congrats for sure, and enjoy that Lambo like it was meant to be enjoyed. You were smart. While I blew six figures going to school far too many times, you were actually making a crap load of money. Must be nice.

TD mentioned it's unclear whether he had one or not.

If that's the case, then using the "rule out" way of doing things, in he went. I still have a hard time believing that with over a half dozen tests, something didn't sway them towards that direction.
