Michael, the door greeter and receptionist is very professional and engages with everyone who stops by the practice. I typically arrive early and always enjoy chatting with other patients, some in their 70's & 80's who share what their treatments are like. Stacy, Gisele & Teresa are always a pleasure to see, too. I like laughing when I go to the doctors, and along with Jordan, the ladies keep up the positive vibe. I haven't tried PRP, but have heard from other patients there it is a good option. Talk to Jordan though on the best options for you.

I look forward to seeing them again. Thank you HSS. I most highly recommend this world renowned HSS, Manhattan. I'm sure all the other branches are great also but I'm focusing on Manhattan because that's the only one I knowon 70th St., York Avenue. It's also right next to the actual NYP Cornell hospitals so very convenient and you can make two appointments same day!

Elevators are slow and open different sides depending on the floor. Not every doctor has a post-appointment helper at that site - some call you back. They have MRI and x-ray machines here and top-notch staff. Inside the hallways aren't all straight - a lot of angles and turns, and not always easy to find the right room/space but the nurses are super helpful. Doctors, somewhat less so and only a few minutes before they recommended another appointment. It's very busy, though, and a lot of waiting or time between appointments since there's a lot of people seeing the doctors. They also have a number of sister sites, including one in NJ across the bridge.

ONS was okay. In comparison, working with HSS has been exceptional in appointment scheduling, authorizations, billing, pre-op, operation, and post-op. I'm in corporate sales and as a result, am very hard to please as a customer/patient. I have high expectations. I've read the lower-star reviews here and question their accuracy for a few reasons. I suggest to anyone suffering from knee complications to keep in mind that you and your mindset are the #1 factor in your outcomes regardless of the doctor. You have to do your part, put in the work, and do your research. No doctor is a magician. As far as Doctor Strickland goes, you are in the most capable hands for this type of complication. Whether you choose maintenance or surgery, she is the very best. However, if you are defeated with unrealistic expectations and have a poor attitude, no doctor will ever cure what ails you. Furthermore, to have a successful outcome, you need to manage your health through exercise and weight management. And, you need to do the post-op or post-diagnosis physical therapy. If you don't, you may have difficulty with achieving a successful outcome, regardless of the doctor. There is a reason Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) in New York City is the top-ranked hospital in the United States for orthopedics for 2024-2025, and has held that title for 15 years in a row. Doctor Strickland is part of this ranking. If you can get to HSS and Doctor Strickland, it is a privilege. Do your part too and your expectations will be exceeded.

Every single review you have received about no follow up, not caring, and GHOSTING is 100% accurate. I think you hate your job and your patients. When I first came in for follow up after my surgery, you acted like seeing me was a nuisance. You literally couldn't care less and rushed me out of there like I didn't matter. You then cancelled my 6 week check up to get my brace off the DAY OF, AN HOUR before my appointment with no care in the world. It's actually insane. Reading all of these comments is so validating. You're just the worst. For anyone looking for a doctor, please for the love of God, do not see this person. Truly the worst doctor I think in NYC. Do everyone in NYC a favor and leave your practice. To HSS: this woman is tarnishing your reputation. What a shame.

Having undergone ACL and meniscus surgeries, as well as having my husband and daughter treated by them previously, I can confidently say they are the go-to for orthopedic needs. Dr. Marx has performed surgery on more than 10 of my ski friends from Windham Mountain, addressing issues from shoulders to knees. Dr. Marx prioritizes conservative treatment options and only recommends surgery when absolutely necessary. The surgical procedures were incredibly successful, thanks to his skill and the exceptional care provided by his team. Post-surgery, their dedication to ensuring optimal recovery is remarkable. They emphasize physical therapy tailored to Dr. Marx's protocol, which is accessible all over NYC, ensuring patients regain strength and mobility effectively. Their specialization in sports medicine is evident, as they strive to not only restore but enhance athletic performance. For anyone seeking top-notch orthopedic care with a focus on comprehensive recovery, Dr. Marx and his team are unmatched. Highly recommended." I can share the experience as well of paying out of pocket and in network, their billing department is really of the highest integrity and transparent without surprises and even making a refund on my favor a couple of weeks after my surgery.

I twisted it so severely as a pre-teen in a crash through a fence on my horse, that I couldn't walk on it properly fo months. My mom looked at it after the crash, determined it wasn't broken and told me to tough it out. I've crashed on it multiple times racing bicycles and had two good falls on it in motorcycle crashes. There was also that time I was swinging on a rope swing and nailed the patella so hard on a rock that I passed out. Long story short, during my last MRI, it showed that there was no longer any thing between my patella and the knee joint. Bone on bone baby. A friend gave me Dr. Marx's name. He had worked on a good friend of hers and said the surgery was life changing. That's what I needed to hear. I was already seeing a doctor in Connecticut and in the middle of hyaluronic acid injections when I went to visit him. I essentially wanted a second opinion. After looking at my MRI and X-Ray films, he confirmed what I already essentially knew...he said, "You need a knee replacement". We scheduled my surgery for three months out and I got to work readying myself for recovery. I spent the next three months working with a personal trainer in order to speed my recovery process. I saw Dr. Marx a couple days before surgery. He answered all my questions about equipment, PCL sparing vs. non-sparing patiently and the only request I had for him was to make the incision as small as possible. Surgery seemed to have gone well and on Saturday morning, his fellow came by to see me and pulled the bandage off to take a look at it. I was delighted to see that he had, in fact used an incredibly small incision to perform the surgery. I was beside myself with joy! I was impressed with the level of swelling from the day of surgery forward. In general, it was hard to believe looking at it that I had had such a morbid surgery. I really felt like he and his team handled it with care. It meant a lot to me that he showed up to see how I was doing on Sunday morning before I checked out. Twelve days out, I'm walking without a cane and I already have over 90 degrees ROM...97 to be exact. I start outpatient PT on Tuesday and hope to be spinning on my bike in the basement on Friday. I would recommend Dr. Marx without reservation. He's a consummate professional and he really seems to care about his patients.

TLDR: After coming here for several months, I've had a lot of mixed experiences at NY Bone and…read moreJoint. CARE QUALITY: Mixed. I've felt rushed out more often than not. But they have given me care that I needed and I'm on the mend. THE GOOD: The positives is that I may have been diagnosed correctly after a misdiagnosis for over a decade. My doctor is generally personable. I am getting better after going to physical therapy for several months (Note: I do not do physical therapy at this office). It's easy to call to reschedule. THE BAD: I've waited for appointments for over an hour, had the office say I wasn't covered for something after they said it was (much to my panic), arrived at the office for my first appointment just to find out my doctor had called in sick that day (the heck?), and been sent to the wrong office location (they moved locations and the email had the wrong location). When I came in after getting a MRI and my doctor didn't look at the results herself, just read the interpretation. THE ANNOYING: They charge a fee for using credit card on your copay.

I came in with severe ankle/foot pain. Given my history of sprains, I expected a straightforward…read morediagnosis, but I was concerned enough to get a proper diagnosis from an expert. I went to podiatrist Dr. Christine Ellie and she diagnosed me with a heel bone fracture using only an ultrasound; no x-ray was ever taken. She told me, "I don't need to do an x-ray because we can see the fracture clearly in the ultrasound." Based on that + my lack of serious pain at the time of the appointment, I was put in a boot for 3 weeks and started physical therapy. The day before my follow-up appt 3 weeks later, the office called to say Dr. Ellie was no longer available and I'd need to reschedule. After trying to reschedule for a few minutes on the call, I expressed frustration about delaying the appointment because I was hoping to get my boot off. Hearing this, the attendant immediately reversed course: "Oh, it's to get your boot off? In that case, we can keep the same appointment." Draw your own conclusions, but that exchange made it clear the "unavailability" wasn't the real reason for the reschedule. At the follow-up, Dr. Ellie again used only an ultrasound. This time she told me there were "minor fractures" and that I needed 8 additional weeks in the boot, with physical therapy discontinued. That's a significant jump from the original prognosis, and it moved in the wrong direction after I'd done everything asked of me. Between the lack of an x-ray, the misleading reschedule, and the ballooning recovery timeline, I sought a second opinion. That podiatrist was surprised an x-ray had never been done, since it's standard for diagnosing fractures. To my surprise, after doing the x-ray with that second podiatrist, the screening showed no fracture at all, just a severe ankle sprain. Dr. Christine Ellie performed no x-ray. I received a dishonest explanation for a rescheduled appointmen, and a fracture diagnosis that turned out to be wrong. If you're looking for a podiatrist with your best interest in mind, I'd strongly encourage anyone considering this office to seek care elsewhere.
