Comment - “ Absolutely the best!!! ”
Had a partial knee replacement with Dr. Buechel in 2010 in Naples, FL. Still active at age 75 with no problems. I truly believe that the robotic-assisted surgery is the only way to go and he is the ONLY doctor that has my total confidence. Thought I needed a replacement in my other knee and visited him in NYC late August, 2021. After testing and consultation, he suggested a knee arthroscopy to repair a meniscal tear. Surgery was performed 2 weeks later. Back to doing everything in a little over a week! Dr. Frederick Buechel Jr. is not only the BEST Orthopaedic doctor, he is totally honest, caring, has great bedside manner and will never leave a question unanswered. That is why I chose him two times!!!
