I booked the surgery then had second thoughts about it so I cancelled. I asked if I should wear a knee brace in the mean time. Dr. Haig said "No it's already torn it won't do any good" I went for a second opinion and the second doctor, who looked at the same MRI, gave me a knee brace and prescribed PT for 6 weeks. The PT has been great it has been at least 6 months since the time I was going to have the surgery and my knee is so much better! Perhaps in the future I may need surgery but I feel surgery should have been a last resort not a first! I was very disappointed in this care I got!

Her knowledge is encyclopedic. She is very impressive and very smart. Equally important she is unbelievably nice and a great listener.

She is patient and thoughtful and unlike many docs who would rush to surgery. I think she is TERRIFIC in every way and I highly recommend her. She deserves to be listed as one of Westchester's Best Doctors!

Tuesday afternoon I saw Dr Elia, and 2 days later he operated on it at an outpatient facility, inserting a titanium plate and 4 screws to realign the bone and gave me a splint to keep it in place. I had a several follow-up appointments in which he x-rayed my hand and looked at the progress of the healing. After about 5 weeks I didn't need the splint and started occupational therapy to regain range of motion and strength in the hand. It took about 5-6 weeks of OT to regain full RoM. Dr. Elia did an excellent job. My hand has healed really well, and the scarring is minimal. I don't feel the plate in my hand. Another doctor who I saw for a different issue examined my knuckles and flexibility of the hand and said it looked great, he was surprised that the doc who did it was not a hand specialist. The occupational therapist I worked with and a dermatologist both said my scarring was less than they have seen in other patients with different surgeons. Furthermore, Dr. Elia answered my questions directly, accurately, and frankly, whether they were about treatment options, how many times a year he typically did procedures like this or what the expected recovery time would be.

Updating my review with retrospective of having had PT at a several places following my surgery. I…read morestill think HSS Westchester is overrated but if you find a reasonable therapist there, it's okay (just don't pick Chery Sun). They are high volume so you may feel like a number but they try their best and you do get the full 20-30 minute with a PT compared to other chains where you may be with the assistant for half or more of the visits. They do have all the technology you could want (as do many other spots) and their scheduling system isn't the most client friendly and kind of a pain. But you eventually learn to navigate it and work with the (sometimes less than friendly) front desk staff. Overall, you can get your PT here if you want, just be aware of the advantages and disadvantages I mentioned, which may or may not apply to you at all. I did think that (like in many NYC area locations), the number of jerky therapists/staff is higher here than in other places (say Boston/DC)- but that's something you have to deal with regularly if you live in this area. Also be aware of the fact that in my opinion, PTs occasionally can make your orthopedic issues worse/injure you, especially if you get a PT who is not careful and who does not listen well to your feedback (it happened to me at a different location). This is a healthcare system wide issue and i did not get injured at HSS PT, however had I not changed PTs it may have happened. If you ever feel excessive pain during your PT and your PT does not seem to listen or take it seriously it may be in your best interest to get a new PT to avoid possibly injury.

I went for all their fancy tests. I spent five hours in that hospital to be told we cannot touch you because you have arthritis. They should have told me when I made a telephone appointment for their services. To top it off. I asked them if they could cut my leg above the arthritis, imagining the girl running with an artificial leg. " No, no," they said without hesitation. "We have another group of specialists that does that." Goodbye and walk away. They are quadruple-arm bandits in fancy respectable suits. I trusted them to help me but they helped themselves out of my ignorance. Just watch out, they will dazzle you with what they claimed as #1. Ask questions and more questions.
