Dr. Bostrom is not only a highly skilled surgeon- he is also a compassionate doctor. I could not have asked for a better outcome.

I have had several surgeries in my lifetime and never had one like Dr Bostrom, who called me a week after the surgery on a Sunday morning to see how I was doing.

I am hopeful that in seeking treatment with Dr. Bostrom and HSS, I will have a resolution to my problems that I was not able to get at other facilities. I feel like Dr. Bostrom and HSS are going the extra mile in investigating a way to resolve my problems, using scientific imaging and a bio-engineering approach, combined with listening to my personal history, to get a complete picture and make a surgical plan.

As an almost 75 year old male with a total hip replacement which was later recalled and replaced again, I was seeking the best possible care to deal with the bone-on-bone arthritic problem in my right hip. After the examination, I knew that HHS was the right pace to be.

Excellent Doctor!!!

It has taken me a long time to find someone who can help me with a complex and rare hip issue. I’m thrilled to have wound up with Dr. Bostrom at HSS. I have every confidence in his skill to handle my unusual situation, and he has also coordinated with a vascular surgeon who will be part of my surgery as well. I feel like I have entered the land of “We can help you,” instead of all the answers I was getting from so many other doctors. Dr. Bostrom isn’t scared of the difficult and unusual cases, and I feel so grateful he has found some ways to try to help resolve much of my pain and to hopefully greatly improve my quality of life. Due to my pain level and how long this has been going on, I wish my surgery could be sooner, but I’m just trying to rest in the fact that the best possible help is on the way. I’m very relieved I won’t have to endure this pain for the rest of my life. Dr. Bostrom explained things very well and I feel like he has a great handle on what needs to be done. He is also incredibly kind and answered lots of questions with patience and kindness. I can’t wait to be back at HSS to come out the other side of this situation and get on to my recovery - and hopefully moving forward to feel much better!

Dr Bostrom is wonderful. He did my first knee replacement 10 years ago and I would only go back to him. His staff are so kind and amazing and everyone at the hospital are fantastic. Everyone at the hospital and in the operating room were so kind and caring Truly the best

Dr Bostrom Took my case and completed a well-thought-out rounded expert diagnose within a few weeks, whereas my last consult took six months. I also appreciated his honesty, sincere personality, and his staff!!

Dr. Bostrom is wonderful! He explains things to me in a simple way to understand. HSS is the best, and I would not trust anyone with orthopedic needs other than Dr. Bostrom and HSS.

Excellent patient care

This was my first visit to the NYC Hospital and I was very impressed by how seamlessly everything went. All staff were courteous and helpful navigating me around. Dr. Bostrom and his staff were wonderful. They were very caring and genuinely concerned with diagnosing me. They listened and took their time with me and I never felt rushed like I had at another facility from the past. They ordered many tests that I had not anticipated and everything was well-organized and flowed seamlessly. From my experience, your facility is top notch and I would highly recommend anyone to make the trip for truly quality of care.

Dr. Bostrom replaced both of my hips in 2012. I have had NO problems with them since. This is why I returned for my knees. I truly appreciate his listening and caring. I have complete trust in his assessments.

This is my second knee replaced by my surgeon. I had so much "fun" with the right knee last sumer, I came back again to do the left knee.

I'm impressed by how uniformly helpful and situationally aware your staff are; how clean everything is.
I say this coming from a background of being in charge of all the back-of-the house operations
for a large 7 acute care hospital network in NYC for 20 years. Even the curb/sidewalk area at the front door were modified to provide an even surface when one transitions from a vehicle into the building with traction provided by the choice of material on the sidewalk. It puts a smile on my face each time I visit Dr. Bostrom at this site. There are other things I saw like that as well - a good marriage of form and function. It's clear a lot of thought has gone into making this site user friendly to those you serve. Thank you.

I had both knees replaced, one July and one in November of 25, I am very pleased at the results. My knees were on very bad shape and now I’m up and around, much better than I ever expected. Dr. Bostrom and his staff are outstanding.

Dr. Bostrom was very honest in his assessment of my condition,.. which helped me to decline
my left knee surgery. Thank you Dr.

This was my third joint replacement surgery with Dr. Bostrom. Not only did everything go totally smoothly but I had no pain throughout the whole process of post surgery. The information communications exceeded any expectations I have ever had in a medical process. The staff is the best of the best, including all the wonderful professional caring nurses, the assistants and everyone we came in contact with. I have told everyone who has asked me about my surgery that I could not imagine having orthopedic surgery anywhere else!
