Had a minor procedure on 4/23/26 at OrthoNy’s Surgical Center Wilton. Easy check in process, unfortunately had to wait quite a while to be called in by once I was called in it was smooth sailing. From the pre op nurse, Steve, who took vitals and completed the check in process to the doctors , Ferrara (surgeon) and Taylor (anesthesiologist) to post op nurses who had a cup of coffee and graham crackers waiting for me when I woke up the entire experience was very good. I’ve seen a few of the doctors at OrthoNy’s different locations and have nothing praise for their services provided. I highly recommend OrthoNy!

First of all, it was so eady to make an appointment and from when I called, it was a week later that my appointment was scheduled! Usually you have to wait months. I got there, registered and I just sat down for half a second and I was called in. The tech took my information and when he left the room, it was maybe a minute or two when the Dr. came in! It was fast! There was no waiting in the waiting room. There was no waiting in the exam room, and there was no waiting in checkout! I was in and out on my way home in a half an hour! I think the most important thing a person can say is that everyone was so kind and the doctors bedside manner was exemplary!
