Greetings, and welcome to the March 2017 edition MD News Long Island. Our cover story profiles Brian J. Snyder, MD, functional neurosurgeon with Neurological Surgery, P.C. Dr. Snyder focuses on treating neurological conditions that haven't responded to anatomic surgery or other typical treat- ments. He applies a range of innovative, life-changing interventions to patients with functional challenges, particularly patients living with epilepsy, chronic pain, movement disorders and psychiatric illness. Dr. Snyder has expertise in a number of surgeries, including DBS and NeuroPace, and is certified in both Gamma Knife and CyberKnife radiosurgeries. Adults frequently have more health issues if they were disadvantaged as children. Our specia l clinica l sec- tion about mental health reviews research that makes a connection between poorer adult health and childhood attachment anxiety. We also examine findings that address- ing depression among lung cancer patients may lengthen survival, and we present a variety of statistics related to mental illness. In addition, we discuss informed consent and mitigation of medical practice risk by providing the patient with su•cient information to make an informed decision about medication use. Our national feature provides an overview of the expan- sive settings in which telemedicine is now being practiced. MD News can inform referring physicians about the expertise and technologies your organization oŠers to optimize patient care.
