Just wish the conversation didn't feel like a race to finish as fast a possible. When doctors speak so quickly it's hard to process the information and think about any questions I might have. The questions often come a moment or two later after they have left the room at which point it's hard to get an answer.

Exceptional and I really appreciate everyone's help to try and figure out what is going on with my foot and the urgency to get test/take steps to find out.

I truly enjoyed my experience at HSS to date. From my first call to HSS to schedule a new patient appointment, to me first visit, I could not be more pleased with everyone!

Dr. Levine is nothing short of extraordinary—brilliant, compassionate, and profoundly human. After a near-fatal elevator crash that shattered my heel bone and left me with a painful neuroma in my foot, I was very anxious, in pain, and unsure if I would ever walk again. From the very first moment, his exceptional skill, empathy, and genuine concern gave me hope when I had none.
He performed two life-changing surgeries with precision and care, guiding me through every step of recovery. He listened to my fears, answered every question patiently, celebrated every small victory, and even lightened the hardest moments with his wit and kindness. He didn’t treat me as just another case—he treated me as a person whose life and well-being truly mattered, and that made all the difference.
Whenever I think of him, I feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude. Dr. Levine didn’t just repair my heel—he saved my life and restored my independence. His care, brilliance, and humanity will stay with me forever. Meeting him truly changed my life.

I especially appreciated being able to see Dr. Ellis two days earlier than my original appt date. The administrator who called me (Esther?) saw that I noted that I have an Achilles tendon rupture and called me to move me up. That feels so rare these days that somebody will look over situations and respond to more urgent situations. I am so thankful that she went above and beyond her duties.
