Hip Replacement
Compartment Syndrome
"I have had three procedures at HSS in 2013/14. Dr. Bostrom did an extraordinary knee arthroscopy and I have regained full knee range minus pain. Dr. Darren Lebl replaced discs in my back and neck. I am just amazed at his skill and technique, I barely have a scar! I went in with a terrible pain in my arm and shoulder, I had a scar on my neck from previous cervical surgery, and I could scarcely believe that all these issues were resolved."

"The large glomus tumor was removed and for the first time in years I was free of its horrible pain. It has been seven weeks since the surgery and my thumb is returning to normal."
Tumor
" I wouldn't hesitate recommending Dr. Athanasian to anyone who needs a a hand specialist!!! Dr. Athanasian is the best!!"
Finger Injury/Condition
"The information and classes before the surgery, and the care and help you receive after the surgery, are what make HSS so special. I know that it sped up my recovery, and enabled me to return to playing tennis and hiking, the two things I like best. If you want to maintain your quality of life there is only one choice for hip replacement, HSS. I truly believe this."
Hip Replacement
"Eight other doctors, affiliated with four other teaching hospitals in New York City, diagnosed my problem as stemming from a herniated disk compressing the nerve at the L5/S1 level. Why is it significant that Dr. Waldman made his diagnosis on Tuesday, April 9th? Because two surgeons, one specializing in neurosurgery and the second in minimally invasive spine surgery, were originally scheduled to operate on my back that day."
Ganglion Cyst
"I had a wonderful experience. I had been suffering with a 'frozen shoulder' for nearly 9 months. I received prompt and courteous attention from Dr. Altchek and his staff at all times and would highly recommend their services."
