I called the Malta Office on 1/29 as a new patient. Penny was very sympathetic to my situation and gave me an appointment for that afternoon with Elise, RPA. I was amazed at how smoothly the appointment went. The xray tech was very professional and explained why each xray was being taken. Once reviewed by Elese she explained the diagnosis with me very clearly and gave me her recommendations. I was in and out within an hour!!!!!

My only disappointment is the call center to set up an appt. It’s crazy how long you have to hold and when you decide to give up you opt to leave your phone number to be called back you hope you don’t miss it. And of course I did! So I had to call again and got the same nonsense so I hung up in frustration. But then remembered you say 24/7 so I called in a Saturday morning Aug 30 at 7:30 am and was connected thru immediately yay. I was told my appt was Sep 10. I show up that day and was told I missed my appt for Sep 3…uh no! I asked if I would charged a missing appt fee and was told no it’s my first offense. What!! When I got home I went thru my texts and hand no messages from OrthoNY to confirm appts for either date. Something is way off with your system. I’ve been a patient with you for years and this treatment is not acceptable. Now for the Doctor and PA particularly Elise she was wonderful. She and Dr Gainor are awesome.

I’ve had the pleasure of being treated by Elise Moinzadeh, PA-C at OrthoNY, on multiple visits. Her orthopedic knowledge is top-notch, but what truly stands out is her warm, personable style—she effortlessly puts you at ease when talking through pain points and treatment options. I always leave with a crystal-clear understanding of next steps and real confidence going forward.
