Dr. Lukovits is Medical Director for Cerebrovascular Disease and Stroke Program at Dartmouth Health and Associate Professor of Neurology, Geisel School of Medicine, Dartmouth. He chose to specialize in the field of stroke because it has so many different clinical manifestations and it overlaps with many other areas of medicine. This allows him to be a member of an inter-disciplinary team that works diligently to provide the highest level of care for patients and families who are dealing with stroke, transient ischemic attack and other cerebrovascular conditions, including moyamoya disease, brain aneurysms, and vascular malformations.
Dr. Christopher S. Ogilvy Md
Dr. Ogilvy is the Director of Endovascular and Operative Neurovascular Surgery at Beth Israel Lahey Health, BIDMC Brain Aneurysm Institute and BIDMC Moyamoya Center. He is also a Professor of Neurosurgery at Harvard Medical School and has a particular interest in adult MoyaMoya disease with clinical research evaluating the response in adults to bypass procedures and indirect revascularization.
Dr. Edward R. Smith MD
Dr. Smith is a professor at Harvard Medical School and the R. Michael Scott endowed chair in neurosurgery at Boston Children’s Hospital. He serves as the co-director of the Cerebrovascular Surgery and Interventions Center, vice-chair of the #1-ranked department of pediatric neurosurgery in the US and leads a translational research laboratory in the Vascular Biology Program, focusing on development of non-invasive biomarkers and novel therapies for brain tumors and stroke. Dr. Smith heads one of the largest pediatric cerebrovascular programs in the country, and innovations from his research and clinical efforts have been incorporated in current national guidelines, with the goal of improving patient outcomes.
