Dr. Larry Dashefsky, MD

I found Dr. Dashefsky to be very thorough, insightful and wonderful in all ways. I cannot imagine why anybody would not give him 5 stars for each category. I highly recommend him.

The doctor is kind, intelligent, thoughtful and willing to devote the time it takes hear, test diagnose and evaluate the problem presented. Who could ask for anything more?

He was absolutely wonderful. He spent over an hour with me, going through all of my symptoms and really trying to figure things out for me. He was great.

Went to him for second opinion on a possible nerve sheath tumor. Was told first off that if it was that there is probablNono cancerous, which is true but he couldn’t read my MRI and scheduled me 45 days out for ultrasound rather than sending me to the proper doctor to view them. Turns out upon making an appointment with new Dr without his directive I have been informed that my nerve sheath tumor has grown to be a 7x3x10 mass that needs surgery. 4 months this mass grew while he did nothing.

After first seeing Dr Dashefsky a year and a half ago for a brain seizure, I continue to see him for follow up. Although I have seen other neurologists for subsequent visits, I consider Dr Dashefsky my primary doctor and feel he has offered me the best treatment possible. He has my full trust and I believe his knowledge and guidance are optimal for my recovery efforts. I would highly recommend him.

Was admitted to hospital for complex migraine with speech aphasia. He said hospital admission was not necessary and that "most migraines occur with speech aphasia"! Um, NO! How do I, as a patient, know if it's a migraine or a stroke, especially with a family history of strokes!
