Hand Pain

Lucy DeFalco

I came to HSS after a misdiagnosis at another hospital. I was losing function of my right hand. Being born with one arm was devastating. I came to HSS because I was told that they were the best in the world. From my first visit to my last, the staff was the most caring, knowledgeable, and emphatic people I have ever met. Dr. Meister helped me more than I ever could have imagined. Dr. Fufa was a professional no nonsense caregiver who told me exactly what to expect. She was right on the money. All the staff from Security to Nursing were wonderful. I am so grateful and happy I chose HSS. They truly are the Best in The World. Thank you HSS.
