My husband goes to Dr. Drummond NYU Langone in NYC. We live in Suffolk County too. There are neurologists out here, SUNY Stony Brook, but I find it worth it to go into NYC a few times a year. Also they will do telehealth.

Thanks for the information . Most drs I’m finding won’t accept medicare. I a HP Too because my potential Neurologist won’t access them if they use medicare. Even though I have great secondary coverage. AND I can’t get an appointment until the end of March😆!!we just moved here -Albany, Oregon and had wonderful support in Missoula and Hamilton.
I’ll go to that link and wish me luck!!!THANKS!!

One of the world’s best Parkinson’s doctors
Dr Alessandro Di Rocco
Was head of Movement Disorders at NYU & now head at Northwell
(Phone number can only be seen by the question and answer creators)
Ask for an appointment with him for as soon as possible... it’s not easy... persist.... make your case.... if necessary put yourself on the list to get called whenever he might have an opening... when someone cancels...
He has been my husband’s Parkinson’s doctor for 10 years... knowledgeable , caring, compassionate
