"In order to keep my appointments I take a two hour train ride and then two subways uptown. Sometimes I spend more time traveling than seeing the doctor, but I feel it is a good time investment and don’t mind at all. And since I became a grandma for the first time in September, I need my joints and body to function properly to keep up with her!"
Spine Injury/Condition
"At age 18, I had a double hip procedure performed in order to repair labral tears and enable me to have more motion within my hip joints. I never thought I would be able to dance again. I am now 20 years old, and a member of my college dance team, part of two dance companies, and pain free- I could not be happier!"
Hip Labral Tear
"While I am still on the mend I am glad I selected Dr. Cammisa out of the five doctors I saw elsewhere. "
Spine Fusion
" I have told all who will listen about the Hospital for Special Surgery. It was more than good care, it was superb care."
Ankle Replacement
"I'm an avid cyclist, skier, and hiker and at age 61 I broke my wrist mountain biking in Boulder, CO. It was an awful break with an equally horrible second opinion telling me I didn't require surgery. I was lucky enough to get an appointment with Dr. Lee in NYC for a consult. He immediately diagnosed my wrist as improper bone healing, ligament damage, deformation and suggested surgery either back in Colorado or with him. I realized rather quickly that there was only one doctor I would trust to fix me and that was Dr. Lee."
Broken Wrist
"By the end of the first week I was walking up and down stairs and by the end of February I was driving my car. I started to play golf again on May 1st. "
Hip Replacement
"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."
Toe Injury/Condition
"Two weeks later, I was back to work, using my newly pain free hands! My family, friends & clients could not believe & were impressed with my recovery time."
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
"Thanks to Dr. Rozbruch and his staff, my future in racing is bright and I am now training for my eleventh full Ironman in 2012. "
Bow Legs
"The whole process at HSS was fantastic - If you lie in pain each night because of your hips, just get it replaced."
Hip Replacement
"Doctors like him born to be doctors. It's in their DNA."
