I’ve never been to a more caring, careful, and intelligent hospital in my life! These doctors are unbelievably patient, and give you every ounce of information, and time you need to process things. I’m only 19 and just had a major hip surgery, and was not nervous for a second about any of it. As an athlete, I’m so grateful to have had the doctors here at HSS. If I hadn’t seen these doctors, I would have had to give up lacrosse years ago. Now I’m playing at the college level and loving it!
