About The Provider

Dr. Carwin grew up in an Air Force family, so she moved many times but considers Washington, DC her hometown as she spent 14 formative years there, including college and fellowship. She attended George Washington University in Washington, DC for undergraduate studies, earning a Bachelor of Art in Latin American Studies. She went on to attend Georgetown University in Washington, DC for a Master of Art in Latin American Government and Security Issues while simultaneously working as an Air Force civilian. Through her work with the Air Force, she decided to pursue medical school, but first completed her Post-Baccalaureate Premedical Sciences certificate at Columbia University in New York. Dr. Carwin attended the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences in Little Rock. From Arkansas, she moved to Cleveland, Ohio for her neurology residency at The Cleveland Clinic, after which she returned to her hometown and Georgetown University for a movement and memory disorders fellowship. Dr. Carwin treats all movement disorders, including tremors, parkinsonisms, cervical and limb dystonias, and blepharospasm in addition to less common movement disorders. She has extensive training and experience with botulinum toxin injections using EMG guidance and ultrasound guidance. She is well-versed in Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) and DUOPA pump titrations. Additionally, she treats dementia. Outside of movement and memory disorders, she is interested in headache and stroke.

“Patients should know that I will educate them on their specific diseases and treatment options so as to formulate the best plan for the patient. I believe that knowledge about their illnesses empowers and helps them take control of their conditions, which ultimately results in better patient care and a better patient/physician relationship.”

Dr. Carwin met her husband on a co-ed volleyball team while completing her studies at Columbia University in New York City. He worked as a photo editor for TIME Magazine and the New York Times Regional News Group until Dr. Carwin's career took them to Arkansas for medical school, at which point he completed advanced degrees to become a secondary education teacher for journalism and social studies. Their daughter was born during medical school, and they had one son in residency and another in fellowship. Their young children were excited to move to the Denver area where their father grew up to be close to relatives from both sides of the family. Dr. Carwin and her husband always wanted to end up in this area, and they feel very lucky to be a part of the community here.
