"Dr. Michael Parks performed a total knee replacement on 2/18/10. I cannot thank Dr. Parks enough for his skill and kindness. If everything in life goes as smoothly for me as this surgery, I'll be happy. "

"I cannot say enough about Drs. Vad and Coleman, their offices, and hospital staff!"



"The entire experience was exceptional and I was able to return to work just 25 days after surgery with no pain or discomfort during my 10 hour day. I would return to the Hospital For Special Surgery for any orthopedic procedure without hesitation."

"With the help of physical therapy and my determination to return to soccer I saw positive results faster than I could have imagined. "

"Hospital For Special Surgery (HSS) was the very "BEST" of all hospitals I have been treated in during the past 80 years. The orientation for my hip replacement for all levels of the processes removed all concerns and resulted in my positive attitude going into the operation. Knowing I was in the best hands with Dr. Chitanjan Ranawat it could not have been better - a total success."

"On October 13, 2009, I had total hip replacement performed by Dr. Eduardo Salvati, He is the man. Dr. Salvati gave me my life back!"

"I was treated with respect, knowledge and caring through the many health professionals I encountered. I felt safe and secure while there. "

"HSS is the best. I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone. My surgeon Dr. Ranawat has had a life transforming effect on me and my family."

" I got hip surgery in the end of July so it would not interfere with school. In October I swam competitively in a swim meet, only three months after the surgery. I remember going to Dr. Kelly for an appointment and he was amazed that I was able to swim competitively so quickly. I was so eager to run again. I was able to gradually start running again that following March. By May, I completed my first triathlon."

"Within a week I had less pain from that foot than I’d had in at least a year, and now five months later I am a new person, walking as much as I want to with total abandon."
