I've seen a lot of migraine specialists in the last 27 years and he is by far my favorite! Loved it aptitude for natural therapies. He made me feel like everything is gonna be ok.

Dr. Torgovnick was fantastic! He was able to get rid of my BPPV (after 8 long months of vertigo and visits to other neurologists) in a matter of minutes. I know if I ever need the help of a neurologist I will go straight back to him. Highest recommendations!

Upon arriving for my appointment, the assistant was thoroughly prepared. She had all the forms I needed to complete, and was very courteous and accommodating. Within five minutes of completing the forms, Dr. Torgovnick was available to see me. Dr. Torgovnick is very patient and thorough in the process he undertakes. He asks many questions to better understand the purpose for your visit, and addresses thoroughly every question you ask. He performs a thorough evaluation, practically leaving no stone unturned. Additionally, he is honest in letting you know what is his area of expertise, particularly if the purpose of your visit is not within his specific area of expertise. Dr. Torgovnick is certainly a Doctor I would visit again if needed.

The wait to see Dr Torgovnick was not long, the receptionist was warm, and the doctor obviously knew his stuff. I'm comfortable with the treatment plan he gave me, and am kind of looking forward to going back, which is not something I normally say!

I highly respect Dr Torgovnick's intelligence, clinical acumen and non-alarmist approach to consultation. In addition, his office manager is extremely helpful and efficient
August 24, 2013Lynn N.Verified patient
Very thorough, very caring. Under his care I went from being in migraine most of the time, to having only the occasional one here and there. Helped me to identify my triggers, and between that and expertly medicating and then de-medicating me, quite literally changed my life.

He is very thorough.
January 2, 2013Marcy W.Verified patient
Dr. Torgovnick takes his time working with his patient, to provide optimal treatment. It’s pretty astounding, actually: good ol’-fashioned “Marcus Welby, MD”-paced care, in a new-fangled ZocDoc-paced era. Such a refreshing change of pace from so much of today’s medical mills.

September 26, 2011Jeffrey B.Verified patient
Not only is Dr. Torgovnick a consummate professional medicine man, he is also disarmingly charming, relaxed and humorous. He makes his patient feel completely at ease, and treats him as a person with a life rather than as a case with a condition.
June 28, 2011Jeffrey B.Verified patient
Dr. Torgovnick is a caring, capable clinician. He has a good sense of humor and is clearly very knowledgeable. He was able to diagnose my condition and provide effective treatment. I plan on recommending him highly to family/friends. This was a lucky find on zocdoc!

I thought Dr. Torgovnick was very thorough, he listened to my issues, allowed me to explain each issue and then did an excellent job of responding in plain talk what was, was not, could, could not be, the causes.
