"First of all, I want to thanks all the professional staff at HSS for the wonderful care I received at the hospital. From the moment I walked through the door, I knew I was in the right place. I suffered for 3 years with bone on bone arthritis. I learned of HSS when I googled on my tablet best place in USA for knee replacement. I called Ann and got an appointment with Dr. Windsor. Thanks to them. I am out of a wheelchair and able to walk and be active again. Thanks and God Bless you all."
