Listings come from the CMS NPPES NPI Registry, the public federal record of licensed providers, checked October 2026. Being listed is not a recommendation or an endorsement, and we do not receive anything from these doctors. Call the office to confirm insurance, availability and that they are accepting new patients. In an emergency, call 911.
After your visit
Neurology relies heavily on your own record. A migraine diary of how often, how long and what came before is what lets a neurologist see your triggers and judge whether a plan is working. Emerge Care, free to download on iPhone, is built for exactly that: tell it how you feel in your own words, get plain answers with the source behind every fact, and walk into your next neurologist appointment in New York with a one-page summary and your questions ready.
Emerge Care never diagnoses or replaces your doctor.

It depends on your insurance plan, not the state. HMO plans usually need a referral from your primary care doctor; many PPO plans do not. Check with your plan before booking.
A list of everything you take, including supplements, with how often; Your insurance card and photo ID; Recent lab results or imaging reports, if another clinician ordered them; A headache or symptom diary: dates, how long, how strong, what helped.
Keep a headache diary for a few weeks: when each one started, how long it lasted, how strong it was and anything that came before it.
A sudden, severe "worst ever" headache, or a headache with weakness, confusion, trouble speaking or a stiff neck with fever, needs emergency care. Call 911.
