Dr. Theodore Schwartz, MD

Thank you, Dr. Schwartz. The most professional and compassionate doctor I meant. Thank you Dr. Schwartz for saving us. We were very fortunate to have you as our doctor. Thank you is not enough.

We are beyond grateful for the care my husband received from Dr. Theodore Schwartz at Mount Sinai Hospital. From the very beginning, he went above and beyond—personally ensuring my husband was transferred from a local hospital to Mount Sinai Hospital so he could receive the specialized treatment he urgently needed. Dr. Schwartz took the time to explain everything clearly and thoroughly, ensuring we fully understood what was happening at every step. His bedside manner was exceptional: calm, compassionate, and reassuring during one of the most frightening times in our lives. It was immediately clear that he is not only extremely knowledgeable but also truly top-notch in his field. What impressed us most was his expertise and quick thinking during surgery. He had the foresight to take a portion of the biopsy and have it frozen for a preliminary pathology determination. This saved us critical time, and in our case, time mattered—because the final diagnosis of Primary Brain Lymphoma… required chemotherapy to begin as quickly as possible. Even after surgery, Dr. Schwartz continued to check in on us, which meant more than words can express. He treated my husband like a person, not just a case, and that kind of care is rare. If you are looking for a skilled, thorough, compassionate, and willing-to-fight-for-his-patients neurosurgeon, I cannot recommend Dr. Schwartz highly enough.

My experience with Dr. Schwartz was excellent. He was very thorough and took the time to answer all my questions. He was able to put me at ease during a very frightening time for me. I highly recommend Dr. Schwartz.

I would like to express my gratitude to Dr. Theodore Schawrtz for the meningioma surgery that he performed this year on May 30th. At my first visit he reviewed the MRI that I previously had from another doctor’s office and pointed out exactly what needed to be done. He is an expert in his field, kind, compassionate and I highly recommend him. I also want to thank his staff for the amazing care, everyone was so friendly and professional.

I am very grateful to Dr. Theodore Schwartz . He diagnosed my large, asymptomatic meningioma, and quickly scheduled surgery, which went brilliantly well, with a barely visible scar on my head. Besides the technical skill, Dr. Schwartz supervised a kind and hugely responsive team who provided answers to all my questions quickly and clearly and set me up with excellent home care after surgery. I feel very lucky to have been treated by Dr. Schwartz at Weill Cornell. My highest recommendation!

This doctor is great. Highly recommend him. He’s very helpful, professional and attentive. Grateful for all his efforts.

Dr. Schwartz and his team are truly outstanding professionals. Maximum care, attention and support. Surgery and recovery of the highest quality.

I found I had a meningioma in 2015 after having an MRI from an unrelated issue. After tracking for 8 years, I decided to see Dr Schwartz to discuss my options. We decided that the best course of action was to remove the tumor before it causes any issues. Dr Schwartz and his team were excellent. He assured me that I would get through this and that I was in good hands with him and his team. As scary as it was for me, with all the research I did on him, I knew all would be ok. The surgery went as planned with full removal of a Class II Meningioma. Post surgery was not bad at all with little to no pain. I was out of the hospital 3 days after Brain surgery.. Any questions or concern I had were answered very quickly by Dr Schwartz or a member of his team. I generally got a response once home within 30 minutes or less. Being diagnosed with something like this is very scary. I assure you that you are in the best hands if you pursue treatment with Dr Schwartz. I highly recommend his services.

Every year I have a telegraph visit with Dr. Schwartz. This was a result of a surgery from 7/21. Each year I have an MRIto ensure there is no regrowth. He removed a benign melanoma from my brain through my eye. Barely a scar and very short recuperation. He is. It in my net work but I wanted the best. My most recent visit he told me I have a beautiful brain. Dr. Schwartz is the very best neurosurgeon..
