Dr. Stone was my doctor for years at the Mellon center at Cleveland Clinic. I did not know that she had passed! She gave me life dealing with MS. My condolences to her family!

Dr Stone was a very special doctor. You couldn´t help be blessed with her knowledge, caring manor. Thank you Dr Stone. Rest in peace.

Dr Stone saved my life and sanity. It took me two years to find someone to believe something was wrong with my health. She took the time may she rest in peace.

I was a patient of hers for many years, I just found out today about my doctor Lael Stone it threw me, I’m 57 yrs old,and in a wheel chair she helped me a lot, I’m very sorry for the loss of such a great doctor and your family! My prayers go out to all of u, May GOD Bless u all and keep u safe and healthy!

Dear Mrs. Stone (Mary Elizabeth, but I never knew that) - I just happened to look up Lael after a conversation with my mom kindled her memory and was shocked to learn of her death. Lael and I met in Albuquerque and moved to Bethesda around the same time. I vividly remember reading and relaxing with her in the tall house on the NIH campus, and watching Masterpiece Theater there together. I also remember your many gentle kindnesses and kitchen conversations. My deepest condolences to all of you.

Right now I am overwhelmed with shock and grief! I just found this online and wasnt aware of Dr. Stones illness or passing. She was the most amazing physician and I was blessed to have her as my doctor for the years that I did.
My sincere condolences to her family. She was an amazing woman

We went to dinner and then dancing that night, and I always felt a special affection for her through her clinical years and then her residency when we'd see one another in the hallways. I am greatly saddened to learn now of her death, but also excited to learn about all her accomplishments in the field of multiple sclerosis. Sending good wishes from Los Angeles to her mother...

I had seen two top neurologists and gone through all of the testing before being referred to Cleveland Clinic in 2016. I definitely believe it was a "God thing" that I was led to choose Dr. Lael Stone! I was only referred there because the MS doctor I'd seen said CC had a much greater MRI scope. When I met Dr Lael Stone, she was so laid back, down-to-earth, and unabashedly brilliant, I was immediately at ease. She started the conversation out by saying, "If you want to waste your money on...
