Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Best Migraine Doc Around!
Dr Grosberg is on another plane of doctoral existence than other doctors. Between his genuine care for the patient, his skill level, his willingness to fully explain your symptoms and that he makes decisions about your health together with you as a team, I see no reason why you would want go to anyone else. Really exceptional doctor. His staff is great also!

Best doc I’ve ever seen!
Have seen Dr. G several times now for help with migraines. He gets it! Takes his time, LISTENS, and works with you to come up with a plan that is within the parameters you’re comfortable with. That is rare. He is a gem!!!

Great Dr
My 1st visit to Headache Center was the most thorough exam that lasted over 2 hours with 3 specialists including Dr Grosberg. I've had Chronic Migraine over 40 years & even though it took 8 months to get in, it was worth the wait. Dr Grosberg is very knowledgeable, explains everything very detailed. On my 2nd visit he was very gentle as he gave me multiple Nerve block injections, explaining what he was doing the whole time. He is even joining the Miles for Migraines 5 k on April 20th with me. I had to hug him before I left because I'm so happy to have a wonderful Dr that validated me. His mantra is treating Chronic Migraine is a marathon, not a sprint.

My visit
Dr. Grossberg has changed my life with my migraines. I went to him weeping with over 20 migraines a month. He put me on a new path by changing my medication and LISTENING to what my triggers were. He is so compassionate and makes u feel it’s all about you. His expertise and kindness are so one in a million. Thank you so very much!!!!!

Amazing doctor!
Dr Grosberg is a phenomenal doctor and I believe he is truly a model for all other doctors. I have been struggling with migraines for the better part of my life and have seen several neurologists, none of whom were able to help. At my peak, I was experiencing 23 days of migraines out of 30, some of which would shut me down for a day or longer. After Dr Grosberg's treatment, I am down to 2 or 3 minor headaches a month, tops. His bedside manner is impeccable, his knowledge unmatched, and his care for his patients is genuine. Because of that, it can be very difficult to make an appointment with him due to so many people trying to get into his practice. My advice is, if you can get in, do it, you won't be sorry!

Awesome
Dr. Grosberg was very pleasant. He took his time to explain the MRI results. Explained his recommendations and why he recommended it. The way he spoke was like he understood or could related to having migraines.Upon leaving he even THANKED me for allowing him to treat me. Thumbs up Dr. Grosberg! You rock

He changed my life
After more than 35 years of constant daily headaches, Dr. Grosberg was able to find a cause and solution to help me. In the 7 months he has been treating me, my constant headache is down from 100% of days to @10% of days, and my debilitating headaches are down from @12% of days to less than 4% of days. Completely changed my quality of life.Dr. Grosberg also has a great bedside manner. He is very personable and if you don't understand something, he is able to re-phrase it in ordinary english.He was also able to convince my insurance company I needed a prescribed medication.

Doctor Grossberg. Has been a game changer for me.
I have been going to Doctor Grossberg. For about 10 months. He and his associates have made a huge difference in my life. I have suffered Migraines for many years. He listens to you. He asks questions to really understand what you are dealing with on a regular basis. He explained the various treatment options available to me. He let's me be involved with the choices that are made. To make a long story short. He cares about his patients!! I highly recommend.

I've been going to HHC for over 2 years and never once met Dr. Grosberg. He's not taking new patients. I was assigned a PA when I first came in, after filling out tons of paperwork in addition to getting a referral. The paperwork required that I prove that I really needed their help in managing my chronic migraines. Once assigned, you cannot switch. The practice consists of injections, which weren't successful for me. I asked for other options, they keep saying that I need more injections for it to work. It doesn't seem right to be a patient and see only PAs for over 2 years.

I came to the practice from another state. My background was research in brain function. Dr Grosberg is an excellent doctor and researcher. He knows what he’s doing. I highly recommend. I will note that initially the road was a bit bumpy getting into the practice, however Dr Grosberg went out of his way to ensure patient satisfaction.

Sorry , but I cannot give a good review. I got no relief from my left sided headaches that are probably the result of long term changes in the shape of my skull from a very invasive neurosurgery done decades ago. If you have chronic migraines you may be very happy here- once you get and appointment and that can take months. Dr. Grosberg is charming but he is a migraine specialist and tried to get me to get an MRI despite not knowing if the metal intracranial clamps in my head were MRI compatible. Fortunately two of my other docs said" not worth the risk". Also , the stiffness in my left eye was ignored which makes my ability to read and use a computer very limited- I had to retire early. I continue with daily headaches that are probably the result of structural changes in my skull causing tentorial tension which is causing tension on the nerves to myleft eye. ( makes reading very tiring). I continue with hours of daily headaches

Dr. Brian Grosberg is the best headache doctor you can have treating you period! He is also a caring, warm and friendly doctor which helps when you have chronic migraines. In my case I also have other neurological issues and is always on top of my care with the other factors and making sure nothing will trigger seizures or bleeding in my brain. The office is always scent free and low lighting! All around a wonderful place to be treated.

I saw Dr. Grosberg because by doctor wasn't available that day. He was amazing. Very kind and he LISTENED to what I had to say and asked questions. He wanted to try new things to help my migraines. He explained things in ways that were easy to understand and offered new solutions. He also had a good sense of humor. I would absolutely give him 5 stars!

I have been a patient of Dr. Grosberg for years. I followed him from NY to CT. He is the best doctor I have ever had. He genuininly cares about his patients and knows his craft. He doesn’t rush you. He takes his time and treats the whole patient not just one symptom. I can’t say enough good things about him.
