After months of debilitating pain and repeated misdiagnoses, Liz Vassallo finally found answers at Princeton Brain, Spine & Orthopedics with Dr. McLaughlin and our neurosurgical team.

An active mother of four, Liz’s severe headaches were repeatedly dismissed as migraines or neck-related issues, despite worsening symptoms that left her largely bedridden. When she came to Princeton Brain & Spine, Dr. McLaughlin conducted a comprehensive evaluation and correctly diagnosed intracranial hypertension, a frequently overlooked condition.

With the correct diagnosis, Liz was able to begin appropriate treatment, bringing an end to months of uncertainty and restoring her quality of life. We are honored to have been part of Liz’s journey and to see her moving forward with renewed health and hope.

Liz Vassallo told Newsweek that she "was losing hope" after months of painful symptoms that left her bedridden and unable to move.
