One of the benefits of living in Westchester is—as the lengthy Top Doctors list that you’ll find starting on page 139 can attest—the availability of amazing medical care. Where else can you find doctors treating three generations of the same family or figuring out problems so uncommon there have only been three documented cases in the world? Here, seven local doctors show us why we don’t have to worry about finding superlative healthcare in the county.
