Patient Reviews
Sep 29, 2020
I had a Subdural Hematoma. Could not have hoped for better treatment both by NYU Langone as a whole and Dr Tanweer in particular. Had the operation to get rid of blood on my brain. Went off without a hitch. Stitches no scar. Blood all gone. Resuming normal lifestyle. Thanks to the entire neurology team!
