NF2 Clinic - NYC Doctors
NF Clinics > NYU
NYU is the only hospital in the metropolitan area offering a complete team of doctors experienced with and focused on NF2. It is one of the very few such places in the country.
Managing NF2 is not just about surgery, it is about managing all of the issues caused by NF2. This means being able to locate different types of doctors, physical therapies and special sources who have also dealt with NF2 that can help us with some of the rest.
