I like the Saratoga Ortho office best because it’s got the fireplace. All the stop there have been helpful friendly tome. They listen to me. When I ask questions they’re clear about what my options are and when they’re available. I hope their new location has a fireplace. It’s nice to wait in a waiting room by a fireplace.

My experience at the Ortho NY Surgical Center was an excellent one. From the moment we walked in we were treated with kindness and respect. Bonnie was my PreOp Nurse and Grant my Post Op Nurse and they were so wonderful to me. The anesthesiologist was excellent giving me options for my sedation and allowed my husband to be in on the discussion. Dr. Stein stopped by to check in and initial my hip and hear my concerns. The operating team stopped by to introduce themselves and also gave me a little Xanax via IV to relax me going into the OR room as I was very nervous. I would highly recommend coming here. I was phoned today to see how I was feeling. This was my second operation in 3 years at this facility with the same physician and I highly recommend this team! Thank you! ~Karen A. Ottati~
