After doing a ton of research on various surgeons in my area, I finally booked a consultation with…read moreDr. Davidson for a surgical procedure I had been contemplating and researching on realself dot com for quite sometime. After my consult with Dr. Davidson, it was the tipping point for me to make a decision to move forward and I'm so glad I did. Dr. Davidson took quite a bit of time to evaluate me, explain the various options available and also used software and digital photos to show me what my outcome could look like based on my goals and options. His entire staff from my initial phone call, the consult, the procedure itself and follow-ups have been flawless. Post surgery when I had questions that popped up, I would email Dr. D and send a photo of what I was concerned about and he responded almost instantaneously even on weekends. The atmosphere is extremely professional and efficient but at the same time each and every staff member I encountered was genuinely kind and personable. I've since been back for other services even though there are options closer to home. Highly recommended! Tips: GPS programming make sure you use Wellesley "Hills" and not just Wellesley Parking lot is confusing to get to. Enter from the side street and ignore what looks like barriers to the driveway to get to it.

I truly don't even know where to begin--my experience with Dr. Davidson and his team has been…read morenothing short of exceptional. From the very first moment I walked into the office, I was greeted with warmth, professionalism, and genuine care. Every single member of the team made me feel at ease, supported, and valued--through every pre-op, post-op, many phone calls with questions, and today's follow-up appointments. The office itself is pristine--clean, modern, and welcoming, with a calm and positive energy that instantly puts you at ease. But what really sets this practice apart is the people. The patient care team (from the amazing nurses to the friendly faces at the front desk--who greet me by name with a big smile every time) are simply phenomenal. They are kind, compassionate, and truly invested in your well-being. And then there's Dr. Davidson. He is incredible--kind, confident, and truly gifted. During my consultation, I came in with a long list of questions, and he had already answered every single one before I even had to ask. His bedside manner is unmatched--he exudes warmth, professionalism, and a calm confidence that instantly builds trust. I knew I was in the best hands. This entire process was seamless, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience or better results. I am beyond grateful to Dr. Davidson and his team--I cannot recommend them enough. 10/10 doesn't even begin to cover it!

All I can say Boston, is that YOU have gained a rock star, and we out here in California are left…read morewith the tour bus drivers.... 2 years ago I was involved in a bicycle accident and tore the rotator cuff in my left shoulder. The pain was excruciating, and continued to get worse over time. One of my colleagues who was seriously injured in a surfing incident a year earlier, that basically destroyed his shoulder (broken bones etc) had been treated by Dr. Tim Hartshorn, and recovered completely recommended that I go see him. I did, and I IMMEDIATELY knew I was in the right place, with the right doctor. Ultimately, I required surgery to repair my shoulder, but prior to actually scheduling surgery, I needed to finish out the work season on light duty. Dr. Hartshorn gave me direct steroid injections to the shoulder joint over the course of the next few months to get me through the rest of that season. At the end of the season, I went in for surgery in the morning, and was back home that afternoon. Almost immediately, Dr. Hartshorn had me on a physical therapy routine that got me moving my newly repaired shoulder in short order. Over the course of the next several weeks, the pain subsided, my range of motion returned as I continued physical therapy, and in less than 3 months, I was back at work with no restrictions. What you need to understand is that prior to seeing Dr. Hartshorn, I could not even hold a coffee cup in my left hand without serious pain. The act of threading a belt through my pant loops required assistance from my wife. Sleeping was nearly impossible and I was a wreck due to lack of sleep. Surgery takes time to fully heal from, and I knew that going in. It also takes commitment by you, to do the exercises, and range of motion stretches prescribed by your physical therapist or doctor. If you don't do that, you will not recover completely. I knew that going in as well. Dr. Hartshorn made sure I knew that this was not going to be easy, or fun, but it (the PT and stretchers) was absolutely necessary for fast recovery and the best possible outcome. Without question or reservation of any kind, I can absolutely say that if you are reading this because you have injured your shoulder, and are at the point where a solution other than you just "roughing it out" is necessary, and you have found Dr. Tim Hartshorn, Your are one fortunate individual. It is my belief that you will NOT find a better physician, surgeon or human being than Dr. Tim Hartshorn. Congratulations, and rest easy. You are in the right place. For those wondering why, 2+ years later I might be here writing a review for Dr. Hartshorn, it is really simple. I have since injured my other shoulder, and have been in the care of a doctor who was prescribed by workers comp out here in California. I am miserable, I require surgery and I decided to reach out to Dr. Hartshorn to see if he would be willing to look at my MRI and perhaps give me a recommendation for surgeons he personally knows and would comfortably recommend out here in Cali. Well, being the rock star that he is, as I mentioned in my first paragraph, Dr. Hartshorn called me directly himself. Not his staff, or some mouth piece like I would have expected to hear from out here, but he himself. I was actually not surprised to be honest, because that is the kind of doctor Tim Hartshorn is. Like I said Boston, consider yourselves VERY fortunate to have this guy in your wheel house. It does not get any better than him. I wish you well on your treatment and recovery, but have no doubt that you will be just fine. THANK YOU Dr. Hartshorn. THANK YOU.

I had a herniated disk L5-L4 and was in extreme pain from it pressing against a nerve. I waited 1…read morehour before being seen when a "buddy" walked in to chat with one of the docs in front of me about a patient. He took the time to talk with his "buddy" while patients waited. When I finally was seen I was first seen by a PA ( who was new) then shuffled to another PA "Drew". It was the most appauling and unprofessional visit which resulted in her stating I was being catastrophic regarding my pain. Not only that, she was confusing meds that I had on my allergy list to meds I was currently taking. I have worked in heath care for the US Navy and US Coast Guard for 20 years this woman would have been demoted and reprimanded. This was the worst experience I have had for medical care.

My first impression of the Newton Wellesley Hospital Outpatient Surgery Center is that I entered…read more"nirvana (this was before I received any sedatives/anesthesia)." I got the impression that this place would be different, when I was greeted by two kind staff members in the lobby, one, who escorted me upstairs to the Outpatient Surgery Center. It seems that 80% of a patients "contact time," while a patient at the Outpatient Surgery Center, is with the Center's Registered Nurses, and they - - collectively - - are a group of (especially) kind, comforting, professional, and efficient healthcare providers. There is no edge, or anything edgy about the Newton Wellesley Hospital Outpatient Surgery Center, is is a place that seems to be stuck in a "state of calm;" there's no pandemonium, noise, rushing, waiting, or drama, just kindness, caring, efficiency, and healing. My surgeon, hand surgeon, Matthew Leibman, MD is a Rock Star, a professional, genius, skilled, caring clinician.....unpretentious, despite all of the important people that he cares for. Dr. Leibman's Physician Assistant, Ashley Piemonte, is equally caring, professional, and skilled, and misses not one detail - - she makes certain that your continuity of care is continuous. I'm biased towards Massachusetts General Hospital, which I believe is the greatest hospital in the world; the Newton Wellesley Hospital Outpatient Surgery Center doesn't have the academic, tertiary, big city edge of MGH, but there are times, like today, for me, that I didn't need that.

As they knew him, I guess, back in the day or at some point in time. I called and spoke with what seemed to be a young lady. She seemed - young. I drove in to check it out. The office was empty. No one there - literally. I saw paintings on the wall for sale - which I found interesting for a medical office. I stood there. And stood there. And this man walks by - he was a doctor. He look surprised. I looked surprised. He said they were at lunch. Okay. I'd think you'd lock the door or put a sign out - AT LUNCH. Be back soon. Or something. We spoke. It was polite. I left. Later I called and spoke with what seemed to be a young lady - my perspective. She said 'the doctor' doesn't take Medicare. And that resolved that. That's my experience. Make of it what you will.

After losing a significant amount of weight years ago, I decided the ongoing complications and…read morediscomfort from the excess, loose skin had gotten to be too much of a burden to keep dealing with, and looked around for a surgeon to perform abdominoplasty. I narrowed it down to 3, and, after meeting with them all, it was clear to me that Dr. Markarian was the right person to turn to (the others were great, but there was a clear difference in his bedside manner, dedication, accessibility, etc, and you just knew he was the one to choose). The surgery went well, but it is a big operation with risks, and a tough recovery. Having had many other operations and hernia surgery, I knew what to expect, and was ready for this. It's important to have realistic ideas of how things will go. Part of that was my resolve that what I would see at my first post-op appointment would not look good or resemble what I would call my ideal outcome. Between swelling, bruising, a relatively fresh wound, etc, I prepared myself to not like what I saw, and to suspend judgement. I even contemplated just not looking at it to avoid risking any disappointment or regret. Dr. Markarian said to me the night of my surgery when he called to check on me, and again in that first appointment that he was really happy with how it looked even when I was laying in the OR, and that I'd be happy with it, but of course he'd say that, right? I tempered my expectations, discounted what he said, and went for a look. I was honestly blown away. With literally zero expectations except perhaps being ready to be a bit horrified, I got to see something that honestly could look just like that and never get better, and I'd be happy with it. It was so much better than what I was coming from before the operation. I've worked really hard on my fitness over the past 20 years, and this was the first time I actually felt like what I saw outside matched who I was inside, under all that skin. If that's where I was starting from, the idea of how it will only get better has just been amazing. I'm now 2 weeks ago, and it is looking better, but obviously has a long way to go. My recovery is going really well because I'm following Dr. Markarian's advice and guidance on compression, cleaning and treating the area, the right level of activity (basic walking around the house or light errands like going for gas; but not going for a walk outside), etc. I'm also making it easier on my body to heal by eating clean and healthy, and trying to rest as much as I can (which can be hard because it's not the most comfortable thing to sleep propped up with tight binders around your midsection). And through this, Dr. Markarian has shown that the personality I read in that first appointment is genuine. He's been so open, responsive, kind, caring and just a good human being. He's also clearly a skilled surgeon who takes his work really seriously and puts a lot of himself into it. I honestly couldn't be happier with things, which is not at all something I thought I'd be saying at 1 or 2 weeks. I figured it would be at least 3 months until I would know if this was the right call or not. Just so thankful to Dr. Markarian. This is literally life changing. I'm sharing this in praise of Dr. Markarian, but also specifically because, as a man, I feel that men don't tend to talk about operations like this, or get them in the first place. We stay silent or just deal with it. I'm hoping this helps folks realize it doesn't have to be that way.

Dr. Sussman performed a Tenex procedure on my right ankle for a Haglund Deformity/bone spur just a week ago and the healing process and results have been amazing. I had minor to moderate pain for just a few days but much less than I had expected. I have been able to return to normal activities in less than a week and the pain I lived with for more than a year due to the haglund deformity is gone. All of the other doctors in Southern California told me that Tenex was not an option and that my condition required an open surgery under general anesthesia and I would have many months of pain and healing. Dr Sussman performed the procedure in less than 15 minutes under local anesthesia, numbing the ankle area only. It was well worth the flight to Boston and back home to Los Angeles. I highly recommend Boston Sports and Biologics. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Dr Sussman is probably the premier physician in the country, if not the world, using this procedure.
