I had suffered for many years with bad pain in my hips and legs. Everyone, including other doctors,…read moreassumed it was my hips. But, yet I kept being told that my hips weren't bad enough for surgery. I switched to S.E. Sports Medicine and was immediately diagnosed with Trendelenburg Gait, meaning my glueteus medius and gluteus minimus tendons were ripped and torn from the bone. After an MRI which clearly verified my condition, Dr. Matthew Wham said that he could repair this. Because of my age, he couldn't be sure of the damage and atrophy until he got into the surgery, but he was hopeful. The surgery went VERY well! The 8 inch incision with 20 or more staples hardly hurt at all, and I am a real pain wuss. In 3 days I was up and using a walker, and I am in a brace from my hip to my knee for 2months, but I can tell that my previous constant pain down my right hip and leg is gone. Dr. Wham is amazing, and I would advise you to goggle him for his specialties and se if he can change your life, too!

I had hand surgery on December 15, 2025. And today, May 30, 2026, I am thankful I did. I am now able to use my hand without the pain I was suffering with before. If I could give them more than 5 stars, I would. Thanks EmergeOrtho, Dr.Yanik, Josh and everyone else I interacted with. Dr. Yanik is a top notch surgeon, explains well and takes time to listen and answer questions and concerns. He takes time to explain the procedure/s and his knowledge made me feel less anxious about having surgery.

My surgeon has been great thru my knee surgery process. The rest of my experience has been far from…read moregood. To begin with they never said I had to prepay for my surgery. After surgery is scheduled and preop interview was done, they say it has to be paid or they won't do it. I ask why no one ever said that and got no answer. Then I ask if ill get an itemized receipt showing what im paying for and was told no. When im about to cancel my surgery they find a way to send me an itemized receipt. Day before my surgery I send in a form from my employer so that I xan do light duty. I finally get the form 8 days after I had sent it. This is after 6 or 8 phone calls and a handful of portal messages. I ask to speak to the practice manager that is in charge of the office and get sent to his/her phone where i leave a voicemail. No call back as of now and that was about 27 hours ago. One of the doctors nurses has a bad attitude problem as well...

I'm a geezer with Depuytren's Contracture in both hands. I chose Dr David Napoli from his online…read moreresume and am very pleased with his work. His initial exam was thorough and he answered my questions without hesitation. You see, I've had procedures done in other parts of the country and Dr Napoli knew I was no rookie in dealing with this annoying condition. The day surgery facility he used is right across the street and treatment there was tops. Following the corrective surgery I had no pain and was only mildly inconvenienced with a splint for 2 weeks.. Follow up went well and I'm well on the way toward being able to clean the windshield of my car with that hand and render a proper salute (it was the right hand this time) without my little finger pointing downward. I recommend Dr Napoli and the facilities without hesitation.

I was having knee problems and was referred to Emerge Ortho by one of my neighbors. Dr. A. Kersten…read moreperformed knee replacement surgery and I was back home the next day. There were some complications during rehab nevertheless I'm fully recovered, and the knee functions well without pain! Dr Kersten and his assistant are genuinely thoughtful and amiable, and the office staff were professional and friendly. Dr. Kersten suggested I try Prescribe Fit to assist me with getting my weight down to reduce the pressures on my joints, specifically my knees and lower back. Since November 2023, I've lost 30 pounds. In addition to the weight loss, I eliminated the need for a CPAC device, my blood pressure has also come down to normal, I also experienced a reduction in pain levels, more energy, and last but not least, my clothes fit! With Prescribe Fit, you get an app, a digital Bluetooth scale, and a personal health coach. The app provides users with an effective way to record and monitor their progress, especially calories consumed, micronutrient levels, and weight. The scale syncs with the app to make weight-in easy and straightforward. But it's the Health Coach that is the linchpin of this program, in my opinion. My coach, Danielle, is responsive, knowledgeable, and empathetic. She provides me with great suggestions and useful information. She makes me feel at ease and heartens me when my weight stagnates. But most of all, it's the encouragement she offers and the sense that I feel accountable to her on our regular phone calls. I'll continue to use Emerge Ortho to address lower back pain with Dr. K. Caragea, who is very personable and knows how to assuage his patients. I recommend Emerge Ortho without any hesitation. Prescribe Fit has worked for me and I strongly recommend this service to anyone ready to commit to a healthier lifestyle.
