About Our Houston Location

Our Story

Founded by a Family Who Understands Your Journey

A Parent's Determination Became a Mission to Help Others

Novara Healthcare was founded out of a pair of parents’ unwavering determination to help their son unlock his potential after being diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. When their son was born in 2017, he was a happy, curious baby who met all his developmental milestones. But then, everything began to change — he stopped responding to his name, his eye contact faded, and he withdrew from the world around him.

“He asked me a full-sentence question: ‘Mommy, are you ok?’ I was flooded with emotions and started to cry — it was my first conversation with my son.”

After his autism diagnosis at age two, the family tried ABA therapy, feeding therapy, diet adjustments, and supplements. When MeRT was introduced, everything changed. Within the first week of treatment, he slept through the night for the first time. By the end of six weeks, he was more aware, using more words, and by his third round of MeRT, he was fully verbal — having real conversations, expressing emotions, and making friends.

That transformation inspired the founding of Novara Healthcare — to bring this life-changing therapy to other families searching for answers and hope.

Our Medical Director

Meet Dr. Gabriel Agbanyim

Gabriel N. Agbanyim, MD

Board-Certified Physician | Medical Director

As a board-certified physician who graduated from Wayne State University School of Medicine and completed his residency at Louisiana State University, Dr. Gabriel Agbanyim brings both professional excellence and deeply personal experience to his work at Novara Healthcare.

After years of practicing medicine, it was Dr. Agbanyim’s own son who ultimately led him to MeRT. Diagnosed with autism at the age of two, his son made slow gains with conventional therapies. But when MeRT was introduced, everything changed — eye contact, speech, and emotional engagement began to emerge in ways Dr. Agbanyim had only hoped for.

At Novara Healthcare, Dr. Agbanyim and his team offer MeRT therapy for children and adults navigating a wide range of neurological and developmental conditions — including autism, ADHD, anxiety, depression, PTSD, OCD, traumatic brain injury, and more.

“Watching a nonverbal child speak their parent’s name for the first time — those are the moments that remind me why I do this work. It’s about more than improvement. It’s about hope.”
