Great Doctor

Super smart, caring, doctor! I was on Long Island, with stroke symptoms. The doctors here said I would have to wait at least 6 wks before they could operate! I called Dr.Lavine and he had me transfered to Columbia that evening and did the operation the next morning!My husband was also having bad headaches and seeing 3 different doctors,and they just kept giving him prescriptions.They did MRI's but couldnt find anything. When he came with me (to Dr.Lavine) for my recheck, Dr. Lavine took one look...
