"I had spine surgery on Feb. 3, of this year. My doctor was Patrick O'Leary. I had a very positive experience at HSS. I would highly recommend this hospital to anyone interested. My care was totally professional . Many thanks to all."
"Because of Dr. O'Brien's skill and technique I was able to get back to normal activities in weeks as opposed to months. "
"Now I am pain free and back to enjoying my usual daily activities, such as fishing and biking. I am very thankful for Dr. DiFelice and the staff at HSS."
"Thank you Hospital for Special Surgery and Dr. Figgie for restoring my happy, active life. It is truly a miracle."
"At a dance I tripped on a chair, fell on my left side, and my left femur separated from my hip. Being in much pain, the local fire department took me to a nearby hospital in Long Island where I was operated on the next day for a partial hip replacement. Everything was going great but after five weeks I developed a staph infection that put me back in the hospital for 25 days. The prosthesis was removed, I was on intravenous antibiotics for eight weeks and spent the next eight months in a wheelchair."
"I would not be standing straight and free from my back brace if it wasn't for Dr. Boachie and all the caring personnel I came in contact with at the Hospital for Special Surgery."
