Robert N Manhasset, NY

"I have been a patient at HSS since 1977. HSS is the only hospital I would ever consider for orthopedic care or surgery for myself, family and those I do refer. I have always been extremely satisfied with every doctor I have visited and in my case they have been numerous over the years."

Barbara Jean Laurel, MD

"I separated my right shoulder in 1995, the Dr. said the only that would help was time. By 2011, not being able to reach across my desk at work to answer the phone, I sought help. The Drs. out on eastern LI kept giving me cortisone shots, to no avail. Dr. Beth Shubin Stein performed the surgery. I was on my way home 5 hrs later. I have not had such range of motion in 16 years, now with little or no pain."

Robert S. Staten Island, NY

"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."

"Everything about the HSS experience was perfect, from the quality of the care, to the professionalism and kindness of the entire staff, to the precise and accurate description of the process from every standpoint (pre-op, surgery, recovery, etc.). Dr. Allen is simply the best, and the entire team was no less than superb. I felt calm and confident as I walked into HSS on the day of my surgery and stress-free as I was wheeled out afterwards."
