Eric J. Uhrik, DO

Nice person but I wouldn’t recommend him as a neurologist. He was my doctor when I was admitted to Raritan Bay Hospital with symmetric weakness in both hands and both feet. He tested me for MS, Lupus, Tick Bite, and even a Polio like disease. The last thing he tested me for was Guillian Barre Syndrome. (Even though that’s what the internal medicine doctor was concerned that I had) Unfortunately the diagnosis for GBS was positive but the delay in treatment caused the attack to progress rapidly. The attack stopped right before the nerves of my heart. I am lucky to be alive. It’s been 14 months and I am still not well. The sad thing is that before I went to the hospital I googled weakness in both hands and both feet and Guillian Barre Syndrome came up. Google diagnosed me in 1 minute because that is the only disease that causes rapid symmetric weakness in both hands and feet. It took Dr. Uhrik 8 days!
