Martin S. Gizzi

Dr Gizzi almost killed my mother with his advice. She is 84 years old and had a recent stroke and started taking blood thinner post stroke. She had residual head and back pains and he recommended for her to take Advil on top of the blood thinner. She ended up in the emergency room from the Advil due to urinary hemorrhage. Thank God she pulled through and still with us.

I visited 3 top neurologists in NYC who said "anxiety". My optometrist noticed something with my eyes. That visit changed my life as I met Dr. Gizzi. Inside of a few minutes, he told me that while I appeared to have some symptoms of MS, he didn't think I did. He thought there was an issue with my cerebellum and the testing confirmed a rare neurological condition. I moved and 3 more neurologist thought I was fine despite not being able to walk a straight line. A more caring Dr you will not find.

I have a very rare neurological condition and had three previous neurologists tell me it was likely anxiety. Inside of 5 minutes Dr. Gizzi said he saw something in my eyes related to my brainstem and some injury was likely and named the rare condition he expected to find. He said I was manifesting a neuropathy similar to MS but he thought that would prove to be negative, which was correct. This was all critical for me to have a diagnosis of what I knew was not anxiety because I could no longer perform my occupation by a longshot and the policy limited 2 years of payments for 'metal disorders'. I moved out of state and tried to find a neurologist and again, two said I was fine and refused to even consider three different tests each performer again 3 years later that showed progression and all confirming Dr. Gizzi's diagnosis. Locally, another neuro-ophthalmologist examined me and say in one minutes that he hadn't seen my condition in years and asked if I knew I had damage to my brainstem? Dr. Gizzi's medical knowledge and ability is only exceeded by his kindness and caring bedside matter. I know that he enjoys an amazing reputation as a doctor and as a human being within JFK Edison and he truly deserves it. I have see the doctors who think they are the final word to the patient and discount more qualified physicians. It's humiliating to be told, 'you are fine' and should see a psychiatrist when you know that's not the case.

Due to repercussions of a TBI, I've been sent to many neurologists and opthamologists for answers. Dr. Gizzi is the only doctor who makes me feel like my condition is worth his time. He's followed my case with compassion and professionalism. I highly recommend him!
