Dr B was helpful. He talked really fast so I had to ask him to slow down which he did. Then he politely apologized. I suspect he was used to young athletes not a 70 year old woman.

Called the day before the surgery to check on me, returned my call on Sunday after the surgery when I had concerns, remembered me in the waiting room while I waited for my follow up appointment, very personal and a strong level of confidence

I would highly recommend Dr B to everyone I know if they need surgery to shoulder. Was thorough and I never felt rushed and answered all questions with a smile. I appreciated that he called me personally day before and after surgery not just a staff member.

Loved Dr Brusalis

Mar 6, 2026
Dr. B is top notch, never had a Doctor call me from his cell to see if I was ok. Super nice guy very personable. I am very happy he also did my wife and she is so happywith him as well. We drive from Rockland County, 80 miles to his office in Long Island to see him. Its worth all the nightmare LIE traffic and the rip off tolls to get there.

Took the time to do a through exam and explain the procedure for my shoulder.

Mar 2, 2026
Dr. Christopher Brusalis is an amazing person and a skillful doctor. This is my second surgery with him and his team and I refuse to go to anyone else. The running joke between him and I is, if he has done anything at all as I've not needed to take any of the opioids for pain relief. Truly a great doctor with an amazing team with wonderful personalities.

He was fantastic. He explained everything and is helping me finish out my season in A D1 school and proceeding with Surgery after. I felt very comfortable and confident with him

Feb 25, 2026
outstanding professional very nice and pleasant. he told me exactly what to expect, and he was 100% correct

Feb 24, 2026
Aside from his excellent surgical skills, I liked the fact that he took the time to describe In detail (using the MRI) what was going on in the shoulder, and then with actual photos during the follow-up visit.
