The service was excellent on every level. I am very satisfied.

Dr. Sussman helped me to understand my condition and explored various options of treatment. He is very knowledgeable in his field (regenerative medicine), and it is so needed and helpful for people like me, to avoid more invasive procedures or surgeries. Dr. Sussman is patient, kind and thorough in his assessment. He had shown understanding and compassion during my treatment and helped me avoid knee surgery using stem cell treatment. I highly recommend Dr. Sussman's services.

Dr Sussman provided a clear plan of action for right knee.

The doctor discussed options for the right knee in light of the exam and review of the x-ray. The PRP injection with protein was the best option. The timing of the injection will be coordinated with the hip surgeon with an anticipated hip placement in November. I'm satisfied with Dr Sussman's diagnosis and prognosis.

He is very easy to talk to.

He listens and is seems very concern about how you are doing.
I would recommend friends and family to see him if they have any issues.
