Not sure about the TIC part in particular but I've used Dr. Jeffrey Wisoff out of NYU and have been very happy with him and his staff.

I've used Columbia for a long time. Now switched to Dr. Danielle McBrian at Hackensack. She was at CP for a short time. Got to know her there.

Dr. Wissoff is a neurosurgeon.
Another great neurologist is Dr. Hassan. We saw him at Maimonodies but he's also at other big hospitals. 718-283-8625. This might be Maimonodies number for his office, so if it is, I'm sure they can give you the number to reach him now.
When we were at Maimonodies we called two different referall organizations and they both told us to stay there bec. although the hospital doesnt have the best name, this Dr. is tops and is worth staying there if we will be under his care. We did and B"H have been very happy with him.

Have any of you who posted seen a pediatric neurologist for a TIC disorder? None of these names listed seem to have that particular interest or specialty. Looking for someone who has an interest/specialty in neurological "movement disorders"

Tourette Syndrome Association is a great resource for finding a doctor who specializes in tic disorders. It is beneficial to find a neurolgist that specializes in movement disorders. I am sorry I dont live in NY and cant give you a specific name. I have had issues with tics my whole life so please feel free to PM me if I can be of any other help to you.
