I was greatly pleased with orthoNY again. They got me in right away. They are very courteous and helpful. Asked a lot of questions and were very friendly. The x-ray technician was very good as well and quick. The doctor came out and I liked him a lot. he was very concerned and helpful and explanatory and gave me some options for my back. I would highly recommend this doctor an ortho, New York. My most grateful thing is that I called that day with a back problem that I’d had for 10 days and they’ve got me in that day at 3 o’clock. I was really surprised and thankful
