Neurology is complex. Getting care shouldn’t be. At Charis Neurology, board-certified neurologist and fellowship-trained neuro-oncologist Dr. Sherif Makar provides testing, diagnosis and treatment on-site. Conveniently located in Lake Mary, caring for patients across Seminole, Volusia, and Orange Counties throughout Central Florida. At Charis Neurology, our name reflects who we are. “Charis” (khar’-ece) is a Greek word meaning grace, kindness, and goodwill — and those values shape every interaction, every decision, and every moment of care. Patients come to us with questions, uncertainty, or symptoms that feel difficult to describe. Our promise is simple: you will be heard, understood, and supported with the highest level of neurological expertise.

At Charis Neurology, everything we do is guided by the meaning behind our name — “Charis,” a Greek word for grace, kindness, and goodwill. We believe neurological care should feel human, not rushed or overwhelming. Patients often come to us with uncertainty, questions, or symptoms that are difficult to describe. Our role is to offer clarity, comfort, and expertise through every step of that journey.
We take the time to listen closely, explain clearly, and guide you with a plan that makes sense. Advanced diagnostics — MRI review, EEG, EMG/NCS, and detailed neurological evaluation — are tools we use, but compassion and communication are the foundation of our care.
Our philosophy is simple: when patients feel understood, they can finally begin to feel at ease.
That’s the heart of Charis Neurology.

I cannot thank this nurse practitioner enough. After months of feeling dismissed by other providers, she treated me with genuine kindness, compassion, and respect. She truly listened to my concerns, validated my symptoms, and explained everything clearly without rushing me. She approached my complex case with an open mind and ordered testing no one else had offered. She even arranged for my EMG and nerve conduction study the same day, giving me answers sooner. She also created a thoughtful plan with additional labs, an MRA, an MRV, and, if needed, a lumbar puncture. For the first time in a long time, I left my appointment feeling heard, respected, hopeful, and one step closer to finding answers. She is an exceptional provider, and I am deeply grateful for her care! She restored my confidence in medicine by combining compassion with careful clinical judgment. Her willingness to investigate instead of dismissing me made all the difference. I highly recommend her to everyone. Thank you!!!

She could’ve been more prepared for my visit. Could’ve given me better answers to my questions. She was very pleasant.

Dr Makar, asked many questions since this was my first visit. I never felt rushed and he gave me a good plan to follow. He’s very easy to talk to and a very good listener. I highly recommend his practice .

Had a 10:30 appointment and at 11:20 still had not seen the doctor. Only contact made was by me after sitting there as the desk showed no concern over my wait until I said something. Watched people come in late to appointments and go right in
