In the words of his patients…

The surgery was fast, and the recovery even faster.

After careful consideration with my physical therapist and attorney, we decided to choose an orthopedic office with a great reputation. I would 100% recommend Dr. Bursztyn to anyone in need. The staff was great, and once inside, Dr. Bursztyn took the time and care to carefully evaluate my issues and pain in both my shoulder and elbow. I was never forced into surgery. Instead, I had a few follow-ups before making the decision to operate on my shoulder. The surgery was fast, and the recovery was even faster. I was back to normal three months after surgery. Occasionally, I make an appointment - just to say hello! I feel like a new woman. If you ever read this doc, you are wonderful - thank you for everything!

Dr. Bursztyn is an excellent doctor.

I went to see Dr. Bursztyn after my motor vehicle accident. After an MRI revealed a tear in the rotator cuff, he advised me to have physical therapy. After 10 weeks and no improvement, he suggested possibly having a procedure called shoulder arthroscopy. I was hesitant but decided to go through with it. After the procedure, he told me I had 3 out of 4 tendons torn. I am happy I made the right decision. I am now in the recovery stage. Dr. Bursztyn is an excellent doctor with a great personality, too. In addition, the entire staff is always so helpful, kind, and sweet.

Dr. Bursztyn also has integrity.

Dr. Bursztyn is a highly competent young doctor specializing in orthopedics. His manner is informal, friendly, and straightforward. He listens to the patient after asking the right questions. Dr. Bursztyn also has integrity and does not order costly diagnostics or radical treatments if these are not indicated, in his opinion. His office staff is efficient, which may account for the refreshingly short wait time for a busy office, yet they put one at ease.

Dr. Bursztyn was excellent!
