Extremely disappointing experience…read more I waited over two hours to be seen on multiple occasions despite having a scheduled appointment. What made the situation even more frustrating was being told repeatedly that I was "next" to be seen, only to watch other patients who arrived after me and had later appointment times get called back first. When I asked about it, the explanations I received from the staff were inconsistent and didn't match what I had personally observed. Rather than acknowledging the excessive wait time and poor communication, I felt like I was being given excuses. The doctor's explanation only added to my frustration and did not address the actual issue. In fact, he took an incredibly rude attitude toward me when I inquired politely about it. I understand that medical offices can run behind, but waiting over two hours more than once is unacceptable. After speaking with others in the waiting room, it was clear that I was not the only one with this experience. Patients deserve honest communication and respect for their time. Unfortunately, that was not my experience here.

From there, I had to listed to his receptionists use profane language in conversation with each other, as if patients weren't right there in the waiting room. After an hour of waiting to be seen, I finally told them I needed to leave. I was told I would not be charged for anything, and sure enough I received a bill for the visit. Avoid this doctor and his office at all costs.

I was referred to Dr. Allert after I shattered my radial head, dislocated my elbow, tore ligaments…read moreand tendons during a horrific fall. My fracture is not common and many doctors would not see me. I had sent my x-rays to his office at Restoration Orthopaedics, and was called the next day to come in for a consultation. Dr. Allert spent so much time explaining what was needed to get my elbow stable! He even drew pictures of the joint. I was scheduled for surgery 3 days later. He operated on my elbow in Hackensack Hospital and replaced my radial head with a titanium joint. My recovery was without pain. Dr. Allert is not only an accomplished surgeon, but he is compassionate and empathetic. He immediately put me at ease! I am now 8 weeks post-op and I have been seen every 2-4 weeks to monitor my progress. I have no restrictions with mobility at this point. I am so grateful to Dr. Allert! I would give him a million stars if I could!

I had the privilege of working with Gemma during my recovery, and I cannot recommend her enough. From the moment I stepped into the facility, I felt welcomed and at ease. Her warm demeanor and genuine concern for my well-being made all the difference. She took the time to explain, the treatment plan, and the rationale behind each exercise. Her encouragement and positivity motivated me to push through the tough days. If you're seeking a physical therapist who combines expertise with compassion, ask for Gemma. *** They were just taken over by Holy Name Medical Center. Their new location will be 718 Teaneck Road (201 833-3085).

We returned to Dr. Hale after my mother underwent a second back surgery that left her in severe…read morepain and struggling to walk. Because he had done her original fusion and had such a strong reputation, we trusted him to give us an honest assessment. I brought her most recent CT and MRI scans, along with lab results showing a GFR of 17--the morning of that second surgery--indicating she was not an appropriate surgical candidate at the time. I also presented the report showing that a Coflex device had been used directly above a prior fusion, something that multiple sources list as contraindicated. Dr. Hale spent only a few minutes with her, glanced at the scans, and said everything looked fine. He offered no comment on the labs or the contraindicated device and simply recommended outpatient therapy. After her condition rapidly declined, we sought a second opinion from a top spinal surgeon at HSS, who reviewed the same imaging and said she was in urgent need of surgical intervention at that time. Unfortunately, by then it was too late. My mother is now wheelchair-bound, on dialysis three times a week, and unlikely to survive more than six months. She will live out what time she has left in pain--and in torment--knowing that those she once trusted to protect her instead looked the other way. From where I sit, it seems doctors protect their own, even when a patient's life is on the line.

That, to me, means that they were never reattached. My knee makes a lot noise when I walk, and it hurts.

I do not know that the other reviews are on the same "Hartzband", but they can NOT be speaking of the one that I went to in Paramus NJ. He has NO personality, and worse yet, doesn't look at you when he speaks. He looks over you, around you, but not at you.

Dr. Hartzband is unbelievable!…read more Due to severe arthritis, my girlfriend needed a complete hip replacement. Dr. Hartzband was confident and reassuring. We arrived at the outpatient surgical facility at 6AM, the surgery started at 8 and we were home at 6PM the SAME DAY! The PT folks even had her practice going up and down stairs before we left. The incision was small and pain was minimal for that type of procedure. Recovery time is significant of course, but she is progressing nicely, thanks to Dr. Hartzband and his excellent staff. I am convinced that they are the best in their field.
