Dr. Stucken and I have a long-standing relationship. He's the one of the best doctors I've ever had. I've recommended him to several of my friends

Dr Stucken is a class act. I loved interacting with him and his PA, and my child did too. They made me (a physician) feel completely comfortable, my non physician spouse comfortable and my teenage daughter. That is no small feat! All with a 'concierge' feel where we didn't feel like a number.

Jun 24, 2026

Awesome

I recently had the privilege of being evaluated by Dr. Charlton Stucken for a ruptured left biceps tendon, and I felt compelled to share how exceptional my experience was.From the moment he entered the room, Dr. Stucken demonstrated everything one hopes to find in a physician. He has the rare ability to combine extraordinary medical expertise with genuine warmth and compassion. He listened attentively, explained my condition and treatment options in clear, understandable language, and answered every question with patience and confidence. By the end of the visit, I had complete trust that I was in the care of someone at the very top of his profession.What impressed me most was that he never made me feel like just another patient on his schedule. He took the time to get to know me as a person. We spoke briefly about our summer plans, and he showed a sincere interest in the conversation, even offering thoughtful suggestions for an upcoming trip. It was a small gesture, but one that spoke volumes about the kind of physician he is. He understands that outstanding patient care is about more than diagnosing and treating an injury—it's about making a personal connection.Dr. Stucken possesses a rare combination of technical excellence, compassion, outstanding communication skills, and genuine humanity. He inspires confidence without arrogance and empathy without pretense. It is easy to understand why he has earned such an outstanding reputation. In my opinion, he is truly a "doctor's doctor"—the kind of physician other physicians would choose to care for themselves and their families.The Hospital for Special Surgery should be immensely proud to have Dr. Stucken on its staff. My visit exceeded every expectation, and I left feeling reassured, respected, and grateful. I cannot thank him enough for the outstanding care he provided.

Dr. Stucken has operated on me in the past - should I need to replace my other shoulder, I wouldn’t go to an other provider - he is amazing.

Dr. Stucken operated on me in the past. I was extremely pleased with his surgical expertise and medical care. I am having an unrelated issue which might require surgery - I made this visit for his knowledgeable opinion.
