Unable to see this Doctor. HSS thinks poorly of patients, HSS HOSPITAL does not allow me to see Dr Leali who was highly recommended, preventing me from seeing him since they are going to select which doctor will see me, something ignorant …
I may have had the most disturbing conversation in all my years with a young staff member of the ‘Patient Experience Department’ (formerly termed the ‘Patient Satisfaction’ Dept). She knows who she is – our conversation took place on Jan. …
I was a patient of HSS for many years, from my early teens until my early 30’s. Dr. David Levine & Dr. Boachie-Adjei, now both retired, set the standards of what I expected from other physicians. …

I love coming here the people are so nice and make sure they take care of you well! Shout out to my athletic trainer in school Joel basically my 2nd home down here and he knows it 😂 …
The hospital runs like a fine Swiss watch. Everyone seems to know what they’re doing and it is obvious that the patient’s health and we’ll being is job 1.
Dr. Windsor re diagnosed my knee problems from needing an life altering total knee replacement (recommended by my orthopedic surgeon back home) to a meniscus tear requiring no surgery at all, and I am forever grateful.
Amazing experience from the second we stepped out of the car! Every person I encountered was friendly, professional and understanding. Very comforting! Will never go anywhere else!
Had reconstructive ACL surgery & staff was great & I’ve been recovering better then other people who have had the same surgery as I. Definitely have a great surgeon!!
Hss is the best place in the world for surgery and impatient care but for the employees they treat the worst I got hurt while assisting a 2 to assist patient by myself because most of the time we work short staff and by the time I waited to …
If u have normal health insurance then i assume the review would probably be better-whenu have Medicare primary and Medicade secondary or just medicade u r a homework assigment for residents in a clinic-first of all the clinic is …
very selective on who they take,I guess you have to be celebrity or have a family member work there or be very wealthy to be accepted by this place,my insurance is welcomed with open arms everywhere except this place,all you get is good …
Dr Gullotta is the best orthorpedic reverse shoulder Relacement surgeon.He explained the complete procedure to so I knew exactly what going to take place . I would highly recommend him ! I was extremely satisfied ! Thank Dr Gullotta 😷 …
I recently was operated by Dr Lebl and his team,every one in the hospital was unbelievable, from the nurses who really took care of me especially Angela,Felicia and yoga thank you thanks again Dr Lebl
Fantastic Doctors and Staff! The Only Orthopedic facility that I will ever go to for my orthopedic care. There’s a reason why they are #1 in the World. Unmatched excellence.
Went there for knee replacement surgery about 3 years ago and had the best experience with everything and everyone…Doctor Seth Jerabek and his office also merit a 5 star rating for their warmth and compassion as well…this is the ONLY place to go for the absolute best orthopedic care in the world!
Had a very complicated hip replacement there almost 3 years ago. My life couldn’t be better. The best hospital, and the best doctors in the world. Thank you Dr. Della Valle.
Have been here for two separate surgeries on my elbow and physical therapy. Great experience all around. Very accommodating, from check in to contacting your family for pick up.
I am seen by Dr. Carli, he is a true professional, he took the time to explain my condition and explained to me other alternatives for my recovery. The staff were also extremely polite and professional. Highly recommend !!!
My husband had hip replacement and then last year surgery for broken femur by dr. Sculco. Both surgeries went great. Dr. Sculco is an outstanding Doctor.
I pretty much lived at HSS for a few years and couldn’t have asked for better. The care the staff provided me from walking up to the building to assisting me in whatever I needed is a rare find. I will travel back for any future surgeries without hesitation.
HORRIBLE!!!! Dr. Andrew Weiland is a monster.. Deemed my son disabled with out examining him. He suffered for 3 years with right hand pain, stood accross the room and barely glanced at his X Rays… Nasty office staff. DO NOT GO TO HHS.. …
Hii i am from India, I wanted to know how much it would cost to perform femoral osteotomy on both legs to correct knock knee problems. I just want a rough estimate figure. Pls reply
Terrible coverage for my Spontaneous Dental Hydroplosion (Teeth randomly Liquidize.) They claimed that there was no remedy for such disease, and I was crazy for even asking for treatment for such an ailment. Will never return. Boo, my teeth are liquid now. Thanks a lot.
Terrific Hospital-Excellent care!..all professionals are great- knowledgeable, caring and work together. My surgeon Dr McLawhorn – “knee replacement “ the best!!
-not informed until 6 hours AFTER a simple pedical screw removal of a dural tear- a critical time for healing/complained the whole time of awful headache
-while the nurse followed protocol for spinal headache, she did not disclose why …
From not being able to get in touch with my doctors, trying to switch my pain medications but forgetting to add the new medication into the computer system and not being able to fix it for 12 hours, forgetting to plug in IVs, forgetting …
Outstanding customer service, very clean, always professional. Nurses are phenomenal! Actually all the staff here is phenomenal! Job well done. You get royal treatment as a patient.
My daughter Christiana Nisco had leg lengthening at Hospital for Special Surgery with Dr. Fragomen.
Thank God for Dr. Fragomen and Hospital for Special Surgery. …
Before going, make sure you know what you will be charged.

But got 3 bills. Apparently, during the eval, taking the 20 seconds to look at …
I am a 73 yr old retiree .I have been in pain for 2 yrs with my knees. My family suggested I try one of the specialists at HSS. Dr Jordan Metzl diagnosed my problem and after a series of non-surgical treatments I am pain free. Everybody …
I have seen Dr Howard Rose for my knee injury. His office responce to my questions, sending reports, contacting my physical therapist , and answering my questions has been exceptional. His support team is excellent!! THANK YOU!
I found that when I requested to see an orthopedic surgeon, I was sent to a Physiatrist who only put me through the same scenario (an epidural and PT) as I had done before earlier before within the time span of 6 months. …
I am a Financial professional and a recreational triathlete. For years while training I suffered countless injuries ranging from stress fractures, to muscular injuries. Every other doctor outside of HSS attributed my injuries to over …
My son has had multiple surgeries here and the care has always been outstanding. I do wish HSS did not deal with Bio Dynamics for DME. They are as fraudulent as they come! They bill you and the insurance company! Had this happen twice! Totally recommend HSS wound never recommend Bio Dynamic Technologies!
Had 5 surgerys so far and I am 14 and I would not want to have them anywhere else shout out to Dr Green and Dr Onel. Also be don’t talk about your struggles at hss because they are like extremely careful and pay extensive amounts of time to …
I had an absolutely horrible experience today with HSS. First off i explained to the admin. exactly my symptoms and how long i was experiencing them. Told her what i was diagnosed as having and also told her i was looking for a surgeon. …
I came to Dr. Della Valle with a right hip that had already been resurfaced and failed and a total metal on metal replacement that not only failed but the ball came loose and caused a lot of destruction to my pelvis as well as other parts …
I would give them a zero but one is the lowest. I have had 12 surgeries at HSS – doctors are excellent – social services horrible. When I had money they kissed my rear end and licked the bottoms of my shoes. No money lousy treatment.
Astronomical charges for a regular doctor’s appointment. They characterized it as out-patient services rather than an in-network appointment so I am being billed more than $500 out of pocket for a 20 minute doctor’s appointment. The …
HSS is the worst Clinic ever, no body seems to care , I have my mom who has a hip fracture going from Staten Island all the way to Manhattan in an ambulance to find out when we get there that her appointment was cancelled, they said that …
I love HSS and all the doctors and nurses that have taken care of me are the best. Especially Dr. Yee in Rheumatology who has been taking care of me and my Lupus for the past 15 years. Because of him I found all my other doctors who have …
It is no wonder HSS is ranked #1 in Orthopedics in the COUNTRY! I felt like a VIP from the moment I entered the hospital doors. HSS sets the bar high for Professionalism and COMPLETE patient care. I had total bilateral knee replacements on …
Alexia M Hernandez-Soria is an intern I found out while researching, not a full fledged doctor as she implied. She did not greet me, introduce herself, speak articulately, address our concerns. I asked her name, she mumbled. We couldn’t …
Billing is a nightmare, I called 4 times, spent more than an hour with different people and my issue is still not resolved after more than a month.

Actually stars are given according to the doctor I see. I practically have paid for a wing in the hospital as I and my family have been there so many times. I choose my surgeons through investigation. In all but one surgical case they were …
I was considering a research fellowship at HSS. I was impressed by the faculty and surgeons here who were able to manage both great patient care and cutting edge research. The location on the upper east side of Manhattan was also great for …
Dr. Alejandro Gonzalez Della Valle is an exceptional surgeon . My mom’s total knee replacement gave her the mobility she dreamed about. Recovery was quicker then she was told. Stuff were very kind and helpful . Thank you to you all for making it easy on both mom and I.
This has nothing to do with the doctors in HSS but the rules that seem to change with the blow of the wind. I had a knee replacement in june 2017 and an ankle replacement oct 2017. I have pictures on my phone of both joints before and …
Unethical institution. The doctor was good and answered all my questions about knee replacement. But, I wanted a second opinion and they charged me $35 for a copy of my x-rays. They should be forced to provide a copy for free. Not very …
Had both my knees replaced by Dr Michael Cross. 3 yrs later can hardly see scar and virtually pain free. Highly recommend hospital. Even the food is good.
Hard to get a straight answer on costs, well run cash cow. Little respect for peoples time. A shoulder surgery should not have to cost $130,000…..A year in I feel fine but overall not a pleasant experience
Bad experience at this hospital. Hadback fusion surgery. Was is very bad pain upon waking from anaesthesia-unaddressed for hours. Asked for something to drink over the next 10 hours-never given-had to wait for scheduled breakfast time. …
Please make sure to properly vet your medical “professionals”. Lots of hospitals/doctors are solely in it for the money, and have very little care or concern for the real life people whose lives they effect. Research Dr. Death (which sounds like kind of what’s going on here).
HSS truly earns its place as the #1 hospital for orthopedics in the U.S. but as far as my husband & I are concerned, it is also #1 in patient care. The doctors are excellent and the nursing staff are second to none. My husband had back …
Immaculately clean. Good doctors and surgeons. The nurses are very professional and helpful. The operating room is gigantic and the brightest white lights I’ve ever seen off the operatic stage.
My experience have been the worst I can imagine. I totally would not recommend this hospital to any one. I went for evaluation of one knee I express the concern for the other knee but at the time they thought of it being of no concern. Days …
I was a patient at the Rheumatology Department @ HSS in 2014 in the spring. I left because there was a doctor who’s bedside manner was horrible. That and I found a clinic closer to me,. Well I am back unfortunately my health is …
Terrific experience! Recently had total knee replacement with Dr. Michael Ast, the whole process flowed smoothly. Flawless transitions. Staff were empathic and helpful. …
The doctors there are good at what they do, provided what they do doesn’t include listening to the patients. If you think you have some important or useful information for them, don’t bother, they aren’t people who like to stoop to the …
This review is for the nursing staff on the 8th floor Recovery Area.
After my total hip surgery at HSS on August 19 I was sent to the area for post-operative care. …
Fantastic, great care, professional and efficient. I had both hips replaced simultaneously and was walking within days, xc skiing at 4 weeks, tennis at 12 weeks. For joint replacement and orthopedic issues, I would go nowhere else. Great Docs, nurses and support staff.
Only the best here! I have had multiple orthopedic issues requiring over 20 joint revisions and replacements over the years. After getting messed up by surgeons in smaller N.J. hospitals, I was directed to HSS where I received the most …
It’s simple, if my experience with Dr. Milani is any indication of how he treats other patients, particularly women patients, and if he is representative of the type of Spine doctors HSS employs, well then, seems to me there’s something to …
Best place I have been. They were absolutely professional. Dr. Allen was gracious honest and provided as much support when I came with a torn acl in my left knee. The second acl in the same leg in 4 years . When they repaired my knee after …
very bad experience with aftercare. They were suppose to put the order in for home care and PT. They discharged my mother a 84 year old who had a total hip replacement after 2 days, they rushed her out. Visiting nurse and PT home care was …
This is one of the best Institutions in the world. I honestly can not say enough good things about this Hospital. The professionalism of its staff is like no other, from the moment you walk, or get pushed into the hospital🤕, the anxiety …
I would give more stars if I could. Dr Demetracopoulos and Dr Peter Sculco are miracle workers. A little over a year ago, after a botched ankle fusion at a different hospital, I could barely walk and was in 24/7 pain. Now, with an ankle …
I am sad to report that I am beyond unimpressed with this hospital. Coming from Boston, I needed to find a doctor to continue care on my wrist/hand in NYC. My doctor at MGH recommended Dr. Osei at the hospital for special surgery. Putting …
Went to the HSS by plane multiple times after my local top 10 hospital failed me. Had both hips operated on and was back to running within months. Wait times are long, which is fine as long as outcomes are good (and they were) – the wait is long because they are thorough. Dr. Coleman was very available and caring.
This is the Four Seasons of Hospitals. I took my son there 10 years ago and most recently in February and the service has not wavered one bit. Starting from the Doorman (the Indian gentleman) who always greets everyone with a smile and a …
I have been to a bunch of hospitals as support for childbirth, surgery, etc. This is the best hospital I have ever been in, without exception. Doctors, nurses, PAs, techs – everyone double and triple checked everything. Everyone answered …
Like any place, it’s a mixed bag. I’ve been treated by a couple of great surgeons, but have also seen a couple of MDs who I was less than impressed with and did not receive an accurate diagnosis from. I also wonder how well their stats …
This place is wonderful! The doctors to the nurses, the patient care assistants were so nice and caring. All the clerks are very nice and helpful. They took real good care of my husband. I would recommend this hospital for anyone who has any back, neck or joint problems.
Dr. Ronald Mackenzie has been my Dr. for over 25 years.mEven though I went to other doctors for other medical issues, he’s always been my primary care physician. He not only personable and engaging, he’s totally professional and is …
I had an appointment with Dr. Bella Mehta on 6/19, Friday. This is the second time I made the appointment. The first one was in April but it was canceled because of the pandemic. This time would be a visual visit online. I has prepared this …
Passes cost of expensive recovery equipment to patient without fully explaining cost. My partner had his own boot that fit and was appropriate for his recovering ankle but they upsold their boot without informing patient of the cost. By the …
I had both knees replaced at the Hospital for Special Surgery in 2006 by Dr. Howard Rose. I can’t say enough about him. It was a wonderful experience and had no problems until this year with pain in and around my left knee going down to …
Excellent in every respect, from Doctors ( all geniuses) to parking attendants- no joke! I’ve accompanied my mother here for two knee replacements(2002 & 2017) both were nothing short of magical experiences. Everyone you encounter is helpful, skilled and genuinely compassionate. I highly recommend!
Dr. Salvati and the professional staff were fine but the support staff in the back office need training. After my appointment I stopped into the office and explained that I was relocating out of state and needed this report sent to my …
In June of 2019 I suffered a fall resulting in massive/multiple soft-tissue injuries requiring surgery. Dr. David Dines completed my surgery at HSS in early July. I cannot express enough how professional everyone I came into contact with …
This is the best hospital. Dr. Marx is excellent with my knee replacement surgery. Dr. Marx listens to his patients and explains everything in detail in ways I would understand. …
Everything was amazing. Every single person in the staff did whatever they could to make me feel comfortable. Gaston Sekau was like a brother, he helped me dress myself, and made me feel comfortable. My physical therapist Dana Aaron is the best!!! Clean, friendly, and amazing hospital.
Great hospital. After my bike accident, 2 doctors at other hospitals misdiagnosed my injury, 1 doctor at another hospital said I had no option but to have a surgery, the doctor at this hospital said he would not recommend a surgery. And, I …
I have to say I have never experienced this much concern and care from a medical facility. I came in to radiology for an ultrasound but they made a mistake and did a CT scan. The doctor from radiology called me personally to apologize and …
So far I’ve just had to go here for imaging, an MRI and CT scan, but everything moved so smoothly, on time, and very professionally. I was so impressed. I work in the medical field and I understand what can happen to clog up movement of …
I had an early morning appointment with Dr. Serota on Friday, 3/15/18. It was my first time at the new facility and was completely impressed. As always, Dr. Serota was professional, knowledgeable, compassionate, and personable. I met the …
The surgery seems to have went well. We will see. During stay and discharge be careful, there is a LOT of lies, mistruths and wordplay just to clear up the bed for a new patient. They were ready to discharge me without even being able to …
The entire experience has been upsetting and I walk away from HSS, without treatment, with the result being dismissed and uncared for, except for the NP working in Dr Fufa’s office. Twice the office has cancelled my outpatient surgery and, …
To this date I have not recovered from what they did to me 9 years ago. I got MRSA from one of the surgeries they gave me. The doctor had bad bed side mannor and they did not listen to my plea as a patient. I solely went off the doctors …
I had right total knee replacement on 8/12/19. The staff was awesome. From the front desk to the admissions office, they were very friendly. Dr. Haas and his surgical team were very comforting and explained everything. I thank the …
I cannot speak highly enough about HSS, Dr. Rodeo and his staff. My first EVER surgery was held the last week that they did elective surgeries before the COVID shutdown in March. The entire HSS staff was wonderful to work with. Calming. …
My experience with the medical care at the Hospital
For Special Surgery was awful and traumatizing. My 3 year old son came in with a referral from his pediatrician. He suffered from an arm injury due to a …
My husband Valeriy Shulman was treated at HSS for a hip replacement Surgery on December 11, 2020. From the moment we stepped to the center the office manager for Doctor Jonathan Vigdorchik, Lisa Pugliese and Doctor Jonathan Vigdorchik …
Good, the hospital isn’t extremely advanced with technologically. Seems to be stuck back in the 60’s I thought it would be more advanced. The surgeons seem skilled. The blood lab was very efficient. I will update this review if I have any surgical work done.
I recently had Quad tendon repair surgery and was glad I chose HSS. The hospital is like a well oiled machine. There is never a wait for anything and if there is it won’t be more then 5 mins or so. You move from one step to another.. …
There is a reason this hospital has Special in its name. Everyone from maintenance to food service to concierge directing traffic and of course your health care providers treat the patient and family members as if they were their family. …
I am writing this review after a recovery room experience. This is unfortunately my third total knee operation. Traditionally, I have found that the worst part of the hospital experience was the recovery room due to the noise ( from staff …
Sent here after I was hospitalized for a week where i tested positive for lyme and got better with antibiotics, and the two male docs were chill but they brought in a mean lady at the end of my appt to gaslight me and say all my positive 6 …
The Hospital for Special Surogery is fantastic. I was recently hospitalized there for 2 nights for a procedure. Across the board ALL staff were friendly and compassionate. From dietary, to environmental care, to nursing, to the technicians, and to the MD staff. I heard “HSS” was “the best.” And I can affirm that it is.
We brought our baby here for evaluation of hip dysplasia and we couldn’t be happier with the care that we received. Everyone, from the front desk to the physician, was so friendly and the ultrasound technician made us feel very comfortable …
Because of light traffic I was 35 minutes early for my x-ray appointment. I barely sat down when they called me in. I will be seeing my surgeon shortly.
Not only is HSS a very well run and efficient hospital, it is the only place you …
My wife needs a new hip. I have confidence in her doctor. I do not have confidence in the people who are responsible for scheduling. When she arrived for her first appointment with her doctor she had to show her confirmation email because …
Right now I’m feeling very good about HSS as I am reviewing the options for knee replacement surgery. Everything here seems to be designed foe the orthopedic surgery and patient. I like the focus. They also appear to hire people who are …
HSS is absolutely the best hospital that I have ever been in. Having back-to-back surgeries, Feb. lower back laminectomy and June Right hip replacement. Each visit to the hospital was an absolute pleasure. The way in which they schedule …
I had scoliosis, kyphosis, and degenerative disk disease. Was told years ago from another practice that surgery would never be an option for me due to the high risk of paralysis. My future changed when meeting Dr. Han Jo Kim. After …
this place seems very nice until you realize they charge $2300 for like 40 mins spent in their facility. approx 4 mins of Dr Aaron Daluiski time worth $400+, roughly $100 / min. i wish i could have the same wage. …
Overall I had a good experience. This place is definitely efficient at doing surgeries, as the name suggests. But there were some less positive points as well… …
I wanted to share this with everyone. My surgeon Dr. Steven Haas performed knee replacements on both my knees. I can tell you that if it wasn’t for him, I would not be where I am today which is pain free doing regular walking tasks. I am …
Good level of care but it’s very overcrowded. They don’t let family members visit or come with patients to appointments. Plan ahead for traffic also. The entrance is usually crowded.
Amazing experience with everyone we have have come into contact with thus far. My husband is scheduled for spinal surgery tomorrow and we (I) I’ve been on the phone for the last week with Dr Albert’s office. I can’t say enough nice things …
Best hospital ever for pediatric orthopedic in the Whole World. Specifically Dr. Sink. Me and my whole family are thankful for his services. I can’t expressed myself with some words. I wish god will bless him always to do same kind of services for his all patients.
I recently had surgery here with Dr. Edwin P. Su. 1) Dr. Su is a master of his craft, incredible surgery for hip resurfacing. 2) the hospital was awesome, I can’t say enough good things about it. Clean, organized, friendly staff, quick, good process, affordable. Thank you all so much for a great surgery.
Coming here for treatment without a referral is like going to a casino. Doctors lack empathy and will spend more time typing, filling out forms, versus making eye contact, speaking to the patient. I never get clear explanations for …
Excellent hospital doctors are excellent and good bedside manners as well as nurses but staff are rude and have attitudes. I can’t keep up with all this covid rules and regulations that they have.. When you enter Noone greets you at least …
For orthopedic care this is the best place I found on the East Coast. The care is incredible the staff truly understand your immediate care in the doctors are highly trained and skilled. I was there five years ago for cervical surgery and …

Thanks again Dr Cornell …
My experience over the years with HSS has been uniformly terrible—from my first visit in 2018 through my last visit in 2021. I’m not a celebrity patient with an interesting problem. I’m someone with chronic pain in my arms, hands, and legs. …
I want to single out the post-op surgery care group. All three of the NP’s were wonderful, but I must make special mention of Christine (christy)Mironenko. You rarely have the pleasure of interacting with such a personal, professional health individual. HSS is lucky to have her
My name M.À. After I hesitated to have the surgery with other surgeons, I am happy that I decided to do it with Dr Andrew SAMA. He is highly skilled, absolutely phenomenal . No words can define/ express how great I am to you Dr Sama. June …
After years of suffering through hip pain I had a total hip replacement in early March of 2022. I was fully aware of their reputation of being the best from family and friends that had procedures done there. …
After much consideration I chose HSS on their reputation and on the very confident Dr. Steven McAnany, who told me no doubt my quality of life would improve after surgery with him. After surgery, I was left with bi-lateral drop foot. I …
Simply the best. I have been a patient of several specialists here and have only good things to say about the hospital, its doctors, nursing staff, and administrative staff.
The big sign out front says it all: #1 in the world the last 12 years in a row. But the staff at HSS are what make it the best place to receive healthcare. The view ain’t bad either.
Superior Hospital ! The staff from the surgeons to nurses are top notch !!🙏I have had many surgeries and this experience by far the best ! Dr Han Jo Kim 🤩is Amazing ❤️My nurses Amanda and all were so very attentive and kind ❤️❤️ …

The Clinical staff was excellent!! However, my experience in the surgical waiting room and PACU was literally the worst most traumatic medical experience I have ever had! My son had a serious operation and the support staff made my …
HSS is very overrated. It probably had a competitive advantage several years ago, but they are so conceited that they make you sign a document, giving away all your personal medical privacy in one of the poorest written legal documents I’ve …
The entire staff is top notch ! Best patient experience I have had and I have had many surgeries to date . Amanda and the other nurses were excellent and super attentive. My surgeon Dr Han Jo Kim amazing ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Been going to HSS for almost 20 years. I’ve had no problems with my past surgeries here
Dr Girardi the best along with his staff prompt on time very nice and attentive to patients.Very clean top to bottom inside and out.
My mom and I have been impressed with the doctors, staff and facilities at HSS. They live up to their reputation.
The hospital runs like a fine Swiss watch. Everyone seems to know what they’re doing and it is obvious that the patient’s health and we’ll being is job 1.
HSS is The Greatest Orthopedic Hospital In The World.
Dr. Windsor re diagnosed my knee problems from needing an life altering total knee replacement (recommended by my orthopedic surgeon back home) to a meniscus tear requiring no surgery at all, and I am forever grateful.
Amazing professionalism and respect. All the employees from the check in to the surgery unit were wonderful. No complaints!
Amazing experience from the second we stepped out of the car! Every person I encountered was friendly, professional and understanding. Very comforting! Will never go anywhere else!
This hospital was once the best…
Its come a long long way down..
The nursing staff is third world at best.. …
Had reconstructive ACL surgery & staff was great & I’ve been recovering better then other people who have had the same surgery as I. Definitely have a great surgeon!!
Hss is the best place in the world for surgery and impatient care but for the employees they treat the worst I got hurt while assisting a 2 to assist patient by myself because most of the time we work short staff and by the time I waited to …
If u have normal health insurance then i assume the review would probably be better-whenu have Medicare primary and Medicade secondary or just medicade u r a homework assigment for residents in a clinic-first of all the clinic is …
This is the best choice I made for surgery twice. Great service, great staff of doctors and nurses. I’d recommend this hospital to anyone.
very selective on who they take,I guess you have to be celebrity or have a family member work there or be very wealthy to be accepted by this place,my insurance is welcomed with open arms everywhere except this place,all you get is good …
Radiologists and quality of the MRI are world’s best. I would never go anywhere else to get an MRI of my brain, spine or joint.
Great staff, I go there for my orthopedic needs. I have Dr. David Scher such a nice guy, and a wonderful doctor. Would recommend him to anyone!!
Staff has been very helpful & friendly, love having StarBucks Cafe locations throughout. Appointments were on time, surgery went well.
Dr Gullotta is the best orthorpedic reverse shoulder Relacement surgeon.He explained the complete procedure to so I knew exactly what going to take place . I would highly recommend him ! I was extremely satisfied ! Thank Dr Gullotta 😷 …
I recently was operated by Dr Lebl and his team,every one in the hospital was unbelievable, from the nurses who really took care of me especially Angela,Felicia and yoga thank you thanks again Dr Lebl
Fantastic Doctors and Staff! The Only Orthopedic facility that I will ever go to for my orthopedic care. There’s a reason why they are #1 in the World. Unmatched excellence.
Went there for knee replacement surgery about 3 years ago and had the best experience with everything and everyone…Doctor Seth Jerabek and his office also merit a 5 star rating for their warmth and compassion as well…this is the ONLY place to go for the absolute best orthopedic care in the world!
Had a very complicated hip replacement there almost 3 years ago. My life couldn’t be better. The best hospital, and the best doctors in the world. Thank you Dr. Della Valle.
Have been here for two separate surgeries on my elbow and physical therapy. Great experience all around. Very accommodating, from check in to contacting your family for pick up.
One of the great hospitals in nyc for surgery
I am seen by Dr. Carli, he is a true professional, he took the time to explain my condition and explained to me other alternatives for my recovery. The staff were also extremely polite and professional. Highly recommend !!!
I’m Recovering from a hip replacement and there is a construction project going on at 10:45 pm. Concrete chopping shaking my bed..
My husband had hip replacement and then last year surgery for broken femur by dr. Sculco. Both surgeries went great. Dr. Sculco is an outstanding Doctor.
I pretty much lived at HSS for a few years and couldn’t have asked for better. The care the staff provided me from walking up to the building to assisting me in whatever I needed is a rare find. I will travel back for any future surgeries without hesitation.
HORRIBLE!!!! Dr. Andrew Weiland is a monster.. Deemed my son disabled with out examining him. He suffered for 3 years with right hand pain, stood accross the room and barely glanced at his X Rays… Nasty office staff. DO NOT GO TO HHS.. …
Hii i am from India, I wanted to know how much it would cost to perform femoral osteotomy on both legs to correct knock knee problems. I just want a rough estimate figure. Pls reply
Terrible coverage for my Spontaneous Dental Hydroplosion (Teeth randomly Liquidize.) They claimed that there was no remedy for such disease, and I was crazy for even asking for treatment for such an ailment. Will never return. Boo, my teeth are liquid now. Thanks a lot.
I had a great experience there being treated for and ultimately had to have spinal fusion.
Terrific Hospital-Excellent care!..all professionals are great- knowledgeable, caring and work together. My surgeon Dr McLawhorn – “knee replacement “ the best!!
-not informed until 6 hours AFTER a simple pedical screw removal of a dural tear- a critical time for healing/complained the whole time of awful headache
-while the nurse followed protocol for spinal headache, she did not disclose why …
From not being able to get in touch with my doctors, trying to switch my pain medications but forgetting to add the new medication into the computer system and not being able to fix it for 12 hours, forgetting to plug in IVs, forgetting …
Outstanding customer service, very clean, always professional. Nurses are phenomenal! Actually all the staff here is phenomenal! Job well done. You get royal treatment as a patient.
My daughter Christiana Nisco had leg lengthening at Hospital for Special Surgery with Dr. Fragomen.
Thank God for Dr. Fragomen and Hospital for Special Surgery. …
Before going, make sure you know what you will be charged.
I went and got an X-ray and an evaluation. (2 procedures)
But got 3 bills. Apparently, during the eval, taking the 20 seconds to look at …
I am a 73 yr old retiree .I have been in pain for 2 yrs with my knees. My family suggested I try one of the specialists at HSS. Dr Jordan Metzl diagnosed my problem and after a series of non-surgical treatments I am pain free. Everybody …
I have seen Dr Howard Rose for my knee injury. His office responce to my questions, sending reports, contacting my physical therapist , and answering my questions has been exceptional. His support team is excellent!! THANK YOU!
I found that when I requested to see an orthopedic surgeon, I was sent to a Physiatrist who only put me through the same scenario (an epidural and PT) as I had done before earlier before within the time span of 6 months. …
I am a Financial professional and a recreational triathlete. For years while training I suffered countless injuries ranging from stress fractures, to muscular injuries. Every other doctor outside of HSS attributed my injuries to over …
My son has had multiple surgeries here and the care has always been outstanding. I do wish HSS did not deal with Bio Dynamics for DME. They are as fraudulent as they come! They bill you and the insurance company! Had this happen twice! Totally recommend HSS wound never recommend Bio Dynamic Technologies!
Had 5 surgerys so far and I am 14 and I would not want to have them anywhere else shout out to Dr Green and Dr Onel. Also be don’t talk about your struggles at hss because they are like extremely careful and pay extensive amounts of time to …
I had an absolutely horrible experience today with HSS. First off i explained to the admin. exactly my symptoms and how long i was experiencing them. Told her what i was diagnosed as having and also told her i was looking for a surgeon. …
I came to Dr. Della Valle with a right hip that had already been resurfaced and failed and a total metal on metal replacement that not only failed but the ball came loose and caused a lot of destruction to my pelvis as well as other parts …
I would give them a zero but one is the lowest. I have had 12 surgeries at HSS – doctors are excellent – social services horrible. When I had money they kissed my rear end and licked the bottoms of my shoes. No money lousy treatment.
Astronomical charges for a regular doctor’s appointment. They characterized it as out-patient services rather than an in-network appointment so I am being billed more than $500 out of pocket for a 20 minute doctor’s appointment. The …
HSS is the worst Clinic ever, no body seems to care , I have my mom who has a hip fracture going from Staten Island all the way to Manhattan in an ambulance to find out when we get there that her appointment was cancelled, they said that …
I love HSS and all the doctors and nurses that have taken care of me are the best. Especially Dr. Yee in Rheumatology who has been taking care of me and my Lupus for the past 15 years. Because of him I found all my other doctors who have …
It is no wonder HSS is ranked #1 in Orthopedics in the COUNTRY! I felt like a VIP from the moment I entered the hospital doors. HSS sets the bar high for Professionalism and COMPLETE patient care. I had total bilateral knee replacements on …
Alexia M Hernandez-Soria is an intern I found out while researching, not a full fledged doctor as she implied. She did not greet me, introduce herself, speak articulately, address our concerns. I asked her name, she mumbled. We couldn’t …
Billing is a nightmare, I called 4 times, spent more than an hour with different people and my issue is still not resolved after more than a month.
I just wanted them to charge my right insurance provider, I keep getting email …
Adoration. Kathy Leventhal is fabulous !
Ambassaor Services for the Office of the President, I assisted her at a specialty retail shoe store in Paramus, NJ. As I assisted another person in need of …
Actually stars are given according to the doctor I see. I practically have paid for a wing in the hospital as I and my family have been there so many times. I choose my surgeons through investigation. In all but one surgical case they were …
I was considering a research fellowship at HSS. I was impressed by the faculty and surgeons here who were able to manage both great patient care and cutting edge research. The location on the upper east side of Manhattan was also great for …
Dr. Alejandro Gonzalez Della Valle is an exceptional surgeon . My mom’s total knee replacement gave her the mobility she dreamed about. Recovery was quicker then she was told. Stuff were very kind and helpful . Thank you to you all for making it easy on both mom and I.
This has nothing to do with the doctors in HSS but the rules that seem to change with the blow of the wind. I had a knee replacement in june 2017 and an ankle replacement oct 2017. I have pictures on my phone of both joints before and …
Unethical institution. The doctor was good and answered all my questions about knee replacement. But, I wanted a second opinion and they charged me $35 for a copy of my x-rays. They should be forced to provide a copy for free. Not very …
Had both my knees replaced by Dr Michael Cross. 3 yrs later can hardly see scar and virtually pain free. Highly recommend hospital. Even the food is good.
Hard to get a straight answer on costs, well run cash cow. Little respect for peoples time. A shoulder surgery should not have to cost $130,000…..A year in I feel fine but overall not a pleasant experience
Bad experience at this hospital. Hadback fusion surgery. Was is very bad pain upon waking from anaesthesia-unaddressed for hours. Asked for something to drink over the next 10 hours-never given-had to wait for scheduled breakfast time. …
Please make sure to properly vet your medical “professionals”. Lots of hospitals/doctors are solely in it for the money, and have very little care or concern for the real life people whose lives they effect. Research Dr. Death (which sounds like kind of what’s going on here).
HSS truly earns its place as the #1 hospital for orthopedics in the U.S. but as far as my husband & I are concerned, it is also #1 in patient care. The doctors are excellent and the nursing staff are second to none. My husband had back …
Immaculately clean. Good doctors and surgeons. The nurses are very professional and helpful. The operating room is gigantic and the brightest white lights I’ve ever seen off the operatic stage.
My experience have been the worst I can imagine. I totally would not recommend this hospital to any one. I went for evaluation of one knee I express the concern for the other knee but at the time they thought of it being of no concern. Days …
I was a patient at the Rheumatology Department @ HSS in 2014 in the spring. I left because there was a doctor who’s bedside manner was horrible. That and I found a clinic closer to me,. Well I am back unfortunately my health is …
Terrific experience! Recently had total knee replacement with Dr. Michael Ast, the whole process flowed smoothly. Flawless transitions. Staff were empathic and helpful. …
The doctors there are good at what they do, provided what they do doesn’t include listening to the patients. If you think you have some important or useful information for them, don’t bother, they aren’t people who like to stoop to the …
A OK Hospital, but overrated
Two years ago I met with Dr. Nestor to discus hip surgery, decided to replace …
This review is for the nursing staff on the 8th floor Recovery Area.
After my total hip surgery at HSS on August 19 I was sent to the area for post-operative care. …
Fantastic, great care, professional and efficient. I had both hips replaced simultaneously and was walking within days, xc skiing at 4 weeks, tennis at 12 weeks. For joint replacement and orthopedic issues, I would go nowhere else. Great Docs, nurses and support staff.
Only the best here! I have had multiple orthopedic issues requiring over 20 joint revisions and replacements over the years. After getting messed up by surgeons in smaller N.J. hospitals, I was directed to HSS where I received the most …
I had scoliosis surgery for a 77 degree curve at the HSS in 1977.
I was in the hospital for over 3 weeks.
I wore a body cast for 4 months. …
It’s simple, if my experience with Dr. Milani is any indication of how he treats other patients, particularly women patients, and if he is representative of the type of Spine doctors HSS employs, well then, seems to me there’s something to …
Best place I have been. They were absolutely professional. Dr. Allen was gracious honest and provided as much support when I came with a torn acl in my left knee. The second acl in the same leg in 4 years . When they repaired my knee after …
very bad experience with aftercare. They were suppose to put the order in for home care and PT. They discharged my mother a 84 year old who had a total hip replacement after 2 days, they rushed her out. Visiting nurse and PT home care was …
This is one of the best Institutions in the world. I honestly can not say enough good things about this Hospital. The professionalism of its staff is like no other, from the moment you walk, or get pushed into the hospital🤕, the anxiety …
I would give more stars if I could. Dr Demetracopoulos and Dr Peter Sculco are miracle workers. A little over a year ago, after a botched ankle fusion at a different hospital, I could barely walk and was in 24/7 pain. Now, with an ankle …
I am sad to report that I am beyond unimpressed with this hospital. Coming from Boston, I needed to find a doctor to continue care on my wrist/hand in NYC. My doctor at MGH recommended Dr. Osei at the hospital for special surgery. Putting …
Went to the HSS by plane multiple times after my local top 10 hospital failed me. Had both hips operated on and was back to running within months. Wait times are long, which is fine as long as outcomes are good (and they were) – the wait is long because they are thorough. Dr. Coleman was very available and caring.
This is the Four Seasons of Hospitals. I took my son there 10 years ago and most recently in February and the service has not wavered one bit. Starting from the Doorman (the Indian gentleman) who always greets everyone with a smile and a …
I have been to a bunch of hospitals as support for childbirth, surgery, etc. This is the best hospital I have ever been in, without exception. Doctors, nurses, PAs, techs – everyone double and triple checked everything. Everyone answered …
Like any place, it’s a mixed bag. I’ve been treated by a couple of great surgeons, but have also seen a couple of MDs who I was less than impressed with and did not receive an accurate diagnosis from. I also wonder how well their stats …
This place is wonderful! The doctors to the nurses, the patient care assistants were so nice and caring. All the clerks are very nice and helpful. They took real good care of my husband. I would recommend this hospital for anyone who has any back, neck or joint problems.
Dr. Ronald Mackenzie has been my Dr. for over 25 years.mEven though I went to other doctors for other medical issues, he’s always been my primary care physician. He not only personable and engaging, he’s totally professional and is …
I had an appointment with Dr. Bella Mehta on 6/19, Friday. This is the second time I made the appointment. The first one was in April but it was canceled because of the pandemic. This time would be a visual visit online. I has prepared this …
Passes cost of expensive recovery equipment to patient without fully explaining cost. My partner had his own boot that fit and was appropriate for his recovering ankle but they upsold their boot without informing patient of the cost. By the …
I had both knees replaced at the Hospital for Special Surgery in 2006 by Dr. Howard Rose. I can’t say enough about him. It was a wonderful experience and had no problems until this year with pain in and around my left knee going down to …
Excellent in every respect, from Doctors ( all geniuses) to parking attendants- no joke! I’ve accompanied my mother here for two knee replacements(2002 & 2017) both were nothing short of magical experiences. Everyone you encounter is helpful, skilled and genuinely compassionate. I highly recommend!
Dr. Salvati and the professional staff were fine but the support staff in the back office need training. After my appointment I stopped into the office and explained that I was relocating out of state and needed this report sent to my …
In June of 2019 I suffered a fall resulting in massive/multiple soft-tissue injuries requiring surgery. Dr. David Dines completed my surgery at HSS in early July. I cannot express enough how professional everyone I came into contact with …
This is the best hospital. Dr. Marx is excellent with my knee replacement surgery. Dr. Marx listens to his patients and explains everything in detail in ways I would understand. …
Everything was amazing. Every single person in the staff did whatever they could to make me feel comfortable. Gaston Sekau was like a brother, he helped me dress myself, and made me feel comfortable. My physical therapist Dana Aaron is the best!!! Clean, friendly, and amazing hospital.
Great hospital. After my bike accident, 2 doctors at other hospitals misdiagnosed my injury, 1 doctor at another hospital said I had no option but to have a surgery, the doctor at this hospital said he would not recommend a surgery. And, I …
I have to say I have never experienced this much concern and care from a medical facility. I came in to radiology for an ultrasound but they made a mistake and did a CT scan. The doctor from radiology called me personally to apologize and …
So far I’ve just had to go here for imaging, an MRI and CT scan, but everything moved so smoothly, on time, and very professionally. I was so impressed. I work in the medical field and I understand what can happen to clog up movement of …
I had an early morning appointment with Dr. Serota on Friday, 3/15/18. It was my first time at the new facility and was completely impressed. As always, Dr. Serota was professional, knowledgeable, compassionate, and personable. I met the …
The surgery seems to have went well. We will see. During stay and discharge be careful, there is a LOT of lies, mistruths and wordplay just to clear up the bed for a new patient. They were ready to discharge me without even being able to …
The entire experience has been upsetting and I walk away from HSS, without treatment, with the result being dismissed and uncared for, except for the NP working in Dr Fufa’s office. Twice the office has cancelled my outpatient surgery and, …
To this date I have not recovered from what they did to me 9 years ago. I got MRSA from one of the surgeries they gave me. The doctor had bad bed side mannor and they did not listen to my plea as a patient. I solely went off the doctors …
I had right total knee replacement on 8/12/19. The staff was awesome. From the front desk to the admissions office, they were very friendly. Dr. Haas and his surgical team were very comforting and explained everything. I thank the …
I cannot speak highly enough about HSS, Dr. Rodeo and his staff. My first EVER surgery was held the last week that they did elective surgeries before the COVID shutdown in March. The entire HSS staff was wonderful to work with. Calming. …
My experience with the medical care at the Hospital
For Special Surgery was awful and traumatizing. My 3 year old son came in with a referral from his pediatrician. He suffered from an arm injury due to a …
Hello
My surgeon Dr. Brian Chalmers analyzed and executed an excellent left medial knee replacement on 1.9.2021. …
My husband Valeriy Shulman was treated at HSS for a hip replacement Surgery on December 11, 2020. From the moment we stepped to the center the office manager for Doctor Jonathan Vigdorchik, Lisa Pugliese and Doctor Jonathan Vigdorchik …
Good, the hospital isn’t extremely advanced with technologically. Seems to be stuck back in the 60’s I thought it would be more advanced. The surgeons seem skilled. The blood lab was very efficient. I will update this review if I have any surgical work done.
I recently had Quad tendon repair surgery and was glad I chose HSS. The hospital is like a well oiled machine. There is never a wait for anything and if there is it won’t be more then 5 mins or so. You move from one step to another.. …
There is a reason this hospital has Special in its name. Everyone from maintenance to food service to concierge directing traffic and of course your health care providers treat the patient and family members as if they were their family. …
I am writing this review after a recovery room experience. This is unfortunately my third total knee operation. Traditionally, I have found that the worst part of the hospital experience was the recovery room due to the noise ( from staff …
Sent here after I was hospitalized for a week where i tested positive for lyme and got better with antibiotics, and the two male docs were chill but they brought in a mean lady at the end of my appt to gaslight me and say all my positive 6 …
The Hospital for Special Surogery is fantastic. I was recently hospitalized there for 2 nights for a procedure. Across the board ALL staff were friendly and compassionate. From dietary, to environmental care, to nursing, to the technicians, and to the MD staff. I heard “HSS” was “the best.” And I can affirm that it is.
We brought our baby here for evaluation of hip dysplasia and we couldn’t be happier with the care that we received. Everyone, from the front desk to the physician, was so friendly and the ultrasound technician made us feel very comfortable …
Because of light traffic I was 35 minutes early for my x-ray appointment. I barely sat down when they called me in. I will be seeing my surgeon shortly.
Not only is HSS a very well run and efficient hospital, it is the only place you …
My wife needs a new hip. I have confidence in her doctor. I do not have confidence in the people who are responsible for scheduling. When she arrived for her first appointment with her doctor she had to show her confirmation email because …
Right now I’m feeling very good about HSS as I am reviewing the options for knee replacement surgery. Everything here seems to be designed foe the orthopedic surgery and patient. I like the focus. They also appear to hire people who are …
HSS is absolutely the best hospital that I have ever been in. Having back-to-back surgeries, Feb. lower back laminectomy and June Right hip replacement. Each visit to the hospital was an absolute pleasure. The way in which they schedule …
I had scoliosis, kyphosis, and degenerative disk disease. Was told years ago from another practice that surgery would never be an option for me due to the high risk of paralysis. My future changed when meeting Dr. Han Jo Kim. After …
this place seems very nice until you realize they charge $2300 for like 40 mins spent in their facility. approx 4 mins of Dr Aaron Daluiski time worth $400+, roughly $100 / min. i wish i could have the same wage. …
Overall I had a good experience. This place is definitely efficient at doing surgeries, as the name suggests. But there were some less positive points as well… …
I think HSS should be renamed SHSS as
it truly is the:
Special Hospital of Special Surgeries. …
I wanted to share this with everyone. My surgeon Dr. Steven Haas performed knee replacements on both my knees. I can tell you that if it wasn’t for him, I would not be where I am today which is pain free doing regular walking tasks. I am …
I’ve received 4 surgeries at this hospital , the staff are attentive to your every need and the doctors are excellent, highly recommended
Good level of care but it’s very overcrowded. They don’t let family members visit or come with patients to appointments. Plan ahead for traffic also. The entrance is usually crowded.
Amazing experience with everyone we have have come into contact with thus far. My husband is scheduled for spinal surgery tomorrow and we (I) I’ve been on the phone for the last week with Dr Albert’s office. I can’t say enough nice things …
Best hospital ever for pediatric orthopedic in the Whole World. Specifically Dr. Sink. Me and my whole family are thankful for his services. I can’t expressed myself with some words. I wish god will bless him always to do same kind of services for his all patients.
I recently had surgery here with Dr. Edwin P. Su. 1) Dr. Su is a master of his craft, incredible surgery for hip resurfacing. 2) the hospital was awesome, I can’t say enough good things about it. Clean, organized, friendly staff, quick, good process, affordable. Thank you all so much for a great surgery.
Coming here for treatment without a referral is like going to a casino. Doctors lack empathy and will spend more time typing, filling out forms, versus making eye contact, speaking to the patient. I never get clear explanations for …
Excellent hospital doctors are excellent and good bedside manners as well as nurses but staff are rude and have attitudes. I can’t keep up with all this covid rules and regulations that they have.. When you enter Noone greets you at least …
For orthopedic care this is the best place I found on the East Coast. The care is incredible the staff truly understand your immediate care in the doctors are highly trained and skilled. I was there five years ago for cervical surgery and …

In 1990 I fell 70 ft to the ground under the Varizano bridge. Dr Charles Cornell put my lt & Rt tib and fib Back together ! Today 2022 I can walk .
Thanks again Dr Cornell …
My experience over the years with HSS has been uniformly terrible—from my first visit in 2018 through my last visit in 2021. I’m not a celebrity patient with an interesting problem. I’m someone with chronic pain in my arms, hands, and legs. …
I want to single out the post-op surgery care group. All three of the NP’s were wonderful, but I must make special mention of Christine (christy)Mironenko. You rarely have the pleasure of interacting with such a personal, professional health individual. HSS is lucky to have her
My name M.À. After I hesitated to have the surgery with other surgeons, I am happy that I decided to do it with Dr Andrew SAMA. He is highly skilled, absolutely phenomenal . No words can define/ express how great I am to you Dr Sama. June …
After years of suffering through hip pain I had a total hip replacement in early March of 2022. I was fully aware of their reputation of being the best from family and friends that had procedures done there. …
After much consideration I chose HSS on their reputation and on the very confident Dr. Steven McAnany, who told me no doubt my quality of life would improve after surgery with him. After surgery, I was left with bi-lateral drop foot. I …
Simply the best. I have been a patient of several specialists here and have only good things to say about the hospital, its doctors, nursing staff, and administrative staff.
The big sign out front says it all: #1 in the world the last 12 years in a row. But the staff at HSS are what make it the best place to receive healthcare. The view ain’t bad either.
Superior Hospital ! The staff from the surgeons to nurses are top notch !!🙏I have had many surgeries and this experience by far the best ! Dr Han Jo Kim 🤩is Amazing ❤️My nurses Amanda and all were so very attentive and kind ❤️❤️ …

There is something serious wrong with HSS’s practice. I had pain in my lower back and my hamstrings and calf are very tight. A PT told me my hamstrings had second degree tears. After many treatments my condition didn’t improve so I went to …
The Clinical staff was excellent!! However, my experience in the surgical waiting room and PACU was literally the worst most traumatic medical experience I have ever had! My son had a serious operation and the support staff made my …
HSS is very overrated. It probably had a competitive advantage several years ago, but they are so conceited that they make you sign a document, giving away all your personal medical privacy in one of the poorest written legal documents I’ve …
The entire staff is top notch ! Best patient experience I have had and I have had many surgeries to date . Amanda and the other nurses were excellent and super attentive. My surgeon Dr Han Jo Kim amazing ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
My mom’s knee replacement surgery is tomorrow, so I’m hoping it goes well. But there has been much so far that is so incredibly disappointing (and I hope that’s all it is). My mom is a type 1 diabetic and they have done so much wrong so …
I hate giving 1 star but the lack of communication in this hospital was quite shocking. …
My surgeon was absolutely phenomenal! I can’t overstate how good my experience with Dr Fragomen was and continues to be. The hospital itself is a well oiled surgical machine, but still retains an intimate feel. The prep area nurses and …
Previously i complained of the care it has now been 11 yrs and i still have not gotten better on the contrary not better all injections have been wasted on me. They are off no use begging that the last one was A 3 shot facet. No help on the …

Best Hospital ever! My mom had surgery here with Dr. Todd who is an amazing doctor, very caring, very trustworthy and very easy to talk to. He made me feel good about the whole process my mother was going through. After surgery, he follow …
