Anisha Garg - Neurology | Mount Sinai

About Me

Anisha Garg, MD specializes in neuromuscular medicine with a focus on diagnosing and managing disorders affecting the connection between the nervous system and muscles. Dr. Garg graduated from Case Western Reserve School of Medicine with a Masters in Bioethics and Medical Degree. She completed neurology residency at Yale New Haven Hospital in New Haven, CT and neuromuscular fellowship at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston, MA. She is now an Assistant Professor of Neurology at Mount Sinai-Union Square.

She is developing a clinical practice caring for patients with diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), muscular dystrophies, peripheral neuropathies, myasthenia gravis, and more. She hopes to integrate clinical neurology, electrophysiology, neuromuscular ultrasound, and genetics to provide comprehensive care to her patient population with a holistic approach to enhance quality of life. Furthermore, she plans to participate in clinical trials and ongoing research to improve patient access to cutting-edge treatments. By fostering a collaborative environment, she will ensure comprehensive care coordination, working closely with physical therapists, occupational therapists, and other specialists to address the diverse needs of patients. This holistic approach not only aims to enhance clinical outcomes but also supports patients in navigating the challenges of living with complex neuromuscular disorders.
