Dr. Laszlo Biro, a beloved member of the Bay
Ridge Community, died on Monday February 26,
2018. Born in Hungary in 1929, Dr. Biro was a
Holocaust survivor who became a physician after
the war. In 1956 when the Russians invaded
Hungary and antisemitism began to resurface,
Dr. Biro was forced to flee his native country,
smuggled across the Viennese border at the
bottom of a farmer’s cart.
OBITUARY
He would eventually travel to the United States, learn English, pass
his medical boards, and continue his career in Dermatology first at
NYU and then SUNY Downstate. After marrying Dolores Macchiaroli
from Greenpoint, the couple settled down permanently in Bay Ridge,
Brooklyn.
In 1960 Dr. Biro opened his dermatology practice at 7502 Ridge
Boulevard and in 1988 moved to 9921 Fourth Avenue where the
practice still thrives to this day under the care of his son David.
Dr. Biro spent his life caring for the needs of others as Chief of
Dermatology at Victory Memorial Hospital, Lutheran Medical Center,
and Brooklyn Hospital. As a Professor of Dermatology, he trained
generations of residents who would go on to have prominent
careers. He was a pioneer in the field of cryosurgery for the
treatment of benign and malignant tumors of the skin, publishing
numerous articles and chapters in books and lecturing around the
country and internationally.
Dr. Biro was a great reader, an avid theatergoer and chess player, a
longstanding member of the Bay Ridge Jewish Center, and a loyal
supporter of the State of Israel. He is survived by his wife Dolores,
son David and daughters Debbie, Lisa and Michele, and his eight
grandchildren. He will be greatly missed.
