Alison and Her Neurosurgeon Discuss Her Emergency Brain Surgery

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Jul 1, 2024

In February of this year, our host Alison Stewart underwent emergency brain surgery, which revealed a serious infection pressing on her language center. Now, she's back on the live show, and ready to talk about her surgery and recovery process. She kicks things off by interviewing her own neurosurgeon, Dr. Randy D'Amico of Lenox Hill Hospital, about her case and the process of treating her infection (which included AWAKE brain surgery!).
