Lucy Foote learned she had epilepsy after her first tonic-clonic seizure in 2021. After several years of unsuccessful epilepsy treatment, she returned home to New York City determined to find an epilepsy doctor who would both listen and create the right treatment plan for her.

When she met Lara Marcuse, MD, she was experiencing frequent uncontrolled seizures. Dr. Marcuse introduced Lucy and her family to neurosurgeon Ted Panov, MD, to discuss epilepsy surgery as a path toward seizure control. Lucy underwent stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG), a test that captures seizures to pinpoint where they start. She then had a hippocampal ablation, an epilepsy surgery that destroys seizure-generating tissue in the hippocampus.

Since then, she has remained seizure free and continues to build an independent, active life.

To hear Lucy and other patients share their stories in an open conversation from our Voices for Epilepsy Surgery webinar: https://mshs.co/4sKBjc3

When Queens resident Jessica Rodriguez, 55, felt sudden jaw pain, she initially thought it was dental-related. But trusting her instincts and seeking care at Mount Sinai Queens saved her life.

"Heart attacks don’t always present as chest pain, especially in women," says Dr. Jonathan L. Murphy, an interventional cardiologist at Mount Sinai Queens.

Dr. Murphy discovered a 100% blockage in her right coronary artery and performed a life-saving stent procedure. Thanks to quick action, Jessica was home the next day and has since made heart-healthy lifestyle changes.

Cold weather can make it harder to keep skin healthy, and with so many products on the market, it’s not always clear what actually works. Dermatologist Dr. Ahuva Cices recommends keeping your routine simple: a gentle cleanser, a hydrating moisturizer (like Cicaplast or Cicalfate), and daily sunscreen. Skip the extras—products like toners often add little benefit and can increase irritation in colder conditions.
