Board-Certified Neurologist

Dr. Robin Warner
Dr. Robin Warner is a board-certified neurologist practicing in New York City. She received sub-specialty training in neuromuscular diseases and electromyography (EMG) at Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) / New York-Presbyterian Hospital / Weill Cornell Medical College. Dr. Warner is skilled in addressing neurological disorders including numbness, neuropathy, muscle disease, weakness, back and neck pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, autoimmune disease, and headaches. She also performs Botox treatment in her office for chronic migraines.

A life-long New Yorker, Dr. Warner is proud to serve her community. She forms special relationships with her patients, which she finds highly rewarding, and takes a broad perspective on medical issues. Dr. Warner has treated high-profile patients including A-list celebrities, professional athletes, political figures, and international royalty, in addition to underserved populations. All of her patients receive the highest-quality care.

Dr. Warner has experience working in ALS Association and Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) clinics, as well as with cancer patients at Memorial Sloane Kettering Cancer Center where she focused on chemotherapy-induced neuropathy.

In addition to seeing patients, Dr. Warner has a special interest in clinical research and contributes to the medical literature. The next decade will be consequential for neurodegenerative diseases in terms of treatments and cures and she would like to help create that future. She has won awards for her research at scientific conferences and has published book chapters on Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD).

Dr. Warner is board-certified in Neurology by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology (ABPN) and licensed to practice medicine in New York State.
