"I was exercising in accordance to my department's policy and while performing a bench press, I felt and heard a popping sensation in my left shoulder followed by immense pain and swelling. I knew that something wasn't right. I went to see Dr. Answorth Allen, a specialist in shoulder repair. He diagnosed my shoulder with a torn rotator cuff that required surgery."
Shoulder Injury/Condition
"My experience at HSS was outstanding. I had a knee replacement 3 months ago and I am walking with no assistance and am back to work. My message to those who are in need of surgery: why settle for less when you can get the very very best?"
Knee Replacement
"I had fallen 4 years ago and complained of shooting pain down calf of my leg. I went to 4 different orthopedic specialists over the next 3 years with all different outcomes. Finally, I could not stand the pain and lack of quality of life (I teach Kindergarten). I researched HSS and found Dr. Mayman."
Knee Replacement
"I had microdiscectomy performed by HSS. I was impressed by how professional and personable the surgical team was before and after the surgery."
Microdiscectomy
" I had been in terrible pain constantly and had trouble sleeping. Dr. Gulotta told me he wouldn't be able to repair the rotator cuff, but could relieve the pain. "
Shoulder Injury/Condition
"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
" Thank you for helping me resume my life again with NO pain. It is a miracle and I cannot express to you how grateful I am for your care from the first appointment until the final follow-up appointment."
Hip Replacement
"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
"I had very severe bunions on both feet that were inhibiting my walking and simply the ability to find shoes. Dr. Matthew Roberts was great in every respect -- professionalism, courtesy, thoroughness of information, giving, and most importantly, skill in the operating room. "
