Overall excellent communications and surgery by my surgeon. This is the second knee replacement surgery she has done for me, so I was confident with her surgery.

I appreciated that she called my wife after the surgery to tell her everything went well. Sometimes physicians forget that there are other people involved. Thank you Dr. Gausden.

Dr Gausden offered options and opportunities that other non-HSS surgeons just wanted to bypass via amputation.

Dr. Gausden replaced my right hip two years ago and I was initially terrified to have the procedure. She made is simple and as easy as possible for me with minimal pain and a truly speedy recovery. The same is fast becoming true for my left hip, which Dr. Gausden replaced two weeks ago. She and her team are the absolute best.

My experience at HSS as a whole is always top notch. From the moment you walk in the front doors of the hospital, every person treats you with courtesy, professionalism and efficiency. Specifically at Dr. Gausden's office you can add personable, understanding and supportive. Dr. Gausden's exceptional skill as a surgeon is matched by her deep expression of care for her patient, and mirrored in her immediate support staff.
Dr. G: top doc + top human = best of the best.

Dr Gausden spoke with me before the surgery and answered any additional questions that I had. She also came to my room to see how I was feeling.

Last year, Dr. Gausden replaced my right knee and this year I came back to have her replace the left. She's terrific!

HAS ofers the best care. Dr Gausden and her staff goes above and beyond.

Already provided in previous question. In addition, I chose her because I knew she was a specialist with women with bone density issues. Indeed, she did need to use a specific bone supportive cage on my femur due to osteopenia. She was amazing from beginning to end. I will recommend her to others in need of THR or TKR.

My overall experience at HSS was very positive. I feel that I was given excellent care thanks to Dr. Gausden and her staff. Dr. Gausden is a very genuine and caring physician who I think truly uses a patient-centered approach. I felt that she was easy to talk to and took the time to answer my questions and discuss my case in detail. Thank you.

Courteous and reassuring as to the outcome of the surgery.

I would rate Dr. Gausden higher than a mere 5, she's an 11 at least on this scale. Outstanding professional pre, during and post surgery. Perfect "bedside manner" i.e., positive before and after, encouraging about recovery..
Mar 3, 2026
Good physicians don't have to broadcast their expertise. It was easy to appreciate Dr Gausden's ability by her quiet confidence she had in her explanations and answers to our questions.
