Dr. David Steven Younger, MD

My daughter is a new patient of Dr. Younger. When I first contacted the office, I was happily surprised to get a live person on the phone immediately who was able to answer questions and tell us about the practice. After expressing interest in scheduling a consultation, I received a callback within five minutes from Dr. Younger himself who listened to our story. He squeezed us in for a consultation right away and quickly developed the beginning phases of a treatment plan. Dr. Younger has immediately reached out to collaborate with all of my daughter's providers. I have to say, after not getting many answers and watching our daughter deteriorate for several years, it is refreshing to connect with a doctor who seems to have a grasp on the situation. For the first time in a long time, we have hope. We have a long way to go, but I do feel as though my daughter can improve under Dr. Younger's care. We are very grateful to have connected with him.

Dr. Younger is incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, and truly takes the time to listen and understand concerns. When I needed help for a pressing medical condition, he responded promptly and efficiently, ensuring I received the care I needed without delay. His expertise and focus makes every visit reassuring and I feel confident in his care.

I traveled from across the country to see Dr. Younger and am so glad I did. I have had unusual neurological symptoms for years that puzzled many neurologist. Dr. Younger was able to diagnose me accurately and come up with a treatment plan. He and his staff have been beyond helpful every step of the process. His book the autoimmune brain has been so helpful also, I’d highly recommend reading it. Many thanks to Dr. Younger and staff!!

Dr. Younger's research and work in the area of neuro-immune illness is beyond astounding. Dr. Younger is not only saving the lives of individuals from immense suffering and functional impairment, but is paving the way for greater understanding of the autoimmune illnesses of the brain. In his words, "he lives" for treating neuro-immune illnesses. This is thoroughly demonstrated through his dedication to his patients that goes so above and beyond.

Dr. Younger is efficient, knowledgeable and compassionate. My daughter has been suffering with Neurologic issues (in a wheelchair with Ng tube) for 18 months and no doctor has bern able to help her or tell us why this is happening. We left Dr. Younger’s office with a diagnosis (EMG and tilt table test done in office) and in less than a month had insurance approval for treatment! I highly recommend Dr. Younger!

We found Dr. Younger when our daughter had neuropsychiatric symptoms that other doctors could not explain. In one visit, conducted and ordered a thorough battery of tests which revealed that she has a form of autoimmune encephalitis. I hate to imagine how much worse she may have gotten without his quick action. We are forever grateful to Dr. Younger for his kindness and expertise.

I am a Covid Long Hauler, who prior to Dr. Younger, sought out help from 15 specialists at NYU-and I can't tell you how many times I heard "this is uncharted territory" or "time will heal you". Dr. Younger however quickly identified my problems and was prompt and accurate with my diagnosis. I am now undergoing effective treatment and have a much more positive outlook on my situation-thanks to Dr. Younger.

Dr Younger is an amazing physician and the person you should go to when you or a loved one is in need of this kind of specialization. We spent many years looking for a proper diagnosis and treatment for our son’s various issues, and finally found someone who could identify what his issues were, recommend IVIG treatment, and get this treatment approved by insurance. Getting the right help for diagnosing neuro-immunological issues takes an expertise and understanding that is not easy to find. And so we’re very thankful that we found this in Dr Younger and are now embarking on this much needed treatment path for our son.

Dr. Younger diagnosed my condition in one afternoon (even though I had already been evaluated by nine neurologists, 2 rheumatologists, 2 rehab medicine specialist, and an orthopedist). After he informed me of the diagnosis, he informed me it was treatable and set up all the steps required to secure my treatment. His staff is excellent.

Dr Younger will get to the bottom of any problem you put in his path. I found him to be incredibly caring, compassionate, a solid listener, obviously brilliant and loves his work.
