Patient Reviews
Oct 11, 2025
My experience with HSS and Dr Nwachukwu and PA Erin and the rest of the staff has been excellent. They performed surgery on my leg after I ruptured my quad tendon. The staff were able to fit me in almost immediately, on an emergency basis. The facility is beautiful and new, and I felt safe there. Parking is also easy. I'm 12 weeks post-operation, and my physical therapist team have all been impressed with the surgeon's work. The Dr and PA took time to answer all my questions and guide me through the process. My leg is healing great, thanks to their work!
