March 30 is National Doctors' Day - Honor your doctor with a gift of appreciation!

Dear Friend of Hospital for Special Surgery,

For a patient undergoing treatment or surgery for a musculoskeletal disease or injury, a great physician can make all the difference in the world. You’ve seen Hospital for Special Surgery’s wonderful doctors in action, so it will come as no surprise to you that Hospital for Special Surgery has garnered many honors in recent months.

Hospital for Special Surgery was recognized as the #1 Hospital in America for orthopedics and #3 in rheumatology by U.S.News & World Report in their “America’s Best Hospitals” issue for 2007. In addition, 43 Special Surgery physicians were listed in New York Magazine’s honor roll of “Best Doctors.” And in its inaugural Best Hospitals issue New York Magazine named Special Surgery number one in orthopedics, and first in the categories of knee surgery, back surgery and hip replacement.

Our physicians and surgeons all share a passion for healing and an unflagging devotion to their patients. In New York City and far beyond, Special Surgery’s doctors are known for providing superb and humanistic patient care.

Now you have a chance to “say thanks” to a Special Surgery physician who made a difference in your life or that of a loved one. March 30 is National Doctors’ Day, a day to show appreciation for the role of America’s physicians in caring for the sick, and advancing the art and science of medicine.

As National Doctors’ Day approaches, we are asking friends like you to make a contribution in honor of a Hospital for Special Surgery physician.

Your gift is a great opportunity to thank your doctor and improve the lives of patients by supporting hospital programs, services and research initiatives.

When you make a Doctors’ Day contribution, you have the option of sending a personal message to the physician or surgeon you are recognizing. He or she will be so gratified to know that you appreciate the care that was provided to you or a loved one.

Show your gratitude today. It’s never too late to say thank you!
