"I had my procedure on March 3rd, 2014 and went back to very mild weight lifting after about 6 weeks and then returned to a modified training schedule after 12 weeks. I then continued to train while "listening to my body" and returned to full strength in about 5 or 6 months. Again, paying careful attention to technique and my body. I am extremely grateful to be able to continue to train and expect to go back to competing in the very near future."
Spine Injury/Condition
"WOW! A common question following surgery from friends and loved ones is, "How are you feeling?" It is very simple, Wow! After an exhaustive search for the right Doctor, I am happy to report that the wait was worth it. Dr. Matthew Cunningham is second to none. Dr. Cunningham's diagnosis was perfect. He spent quality time with me, answered all the questions I had. What impressed me the most was his calm and comforting demeanor. "
Spinal Stenosis
"I can never say enough great things about Dr. Cunningham. In the fall of 2013, he performed an extensive very large spinal fusion on me. This was my 3rd spinal fusion but my first surgery with Dr. Cunningham. "
Spine Fusion
"I was scheduled immediately when I first called for a visit with Dr. Jerabek and was treated extraordinarily well by his office. The first visit was fully informative and I felt free and well equipped to make my decision regarding surgery."
Hip Replacement
"I'm just an "average joe" who had a relatively active lifestyle until osteoarthritis got the best of my hips. It took a lot of convincing before I was ready to accept that I needed surgical intervention to alleviate my worsening hip pain."

Hip Replacement
"In March of 2011, I went to HSS and met Dr. Mathias Bostrom, who in my opinion, created a miracle when he operated on my right knee. I am now able to walk and stand on my leg without pain like before. I will always be indebted to him and have him in my prayers."
Knee Injury/Condition
"I have a history of being careless and prone to injuries. This resulted in 3 knee injuries in the past 5 years, two ACLs and a meniscus repair."
ACL Injury
Knee Revision Surgery
Broken Wrist
"I recovered from the operation quickly and easily. I am now free of back pain, able to walk without inhibition and looking forward to the moment at the end of the month when I can once again bend over and touch my toes – or, more usefully, tie my shoelaces."
Spine Laminectomy
"When the pain in my left knee got so bad that it started to hinder my pursuit of International Folk Dancing, I knew it was time for me to take action. I knew about the work done at Hospital for Special Surgery. My friend recommended Dr. Rozbruch, the surgeon who replaced her both knees."
