When I was researching physicians for my cervical fusion I used the HSS provider evaluation ratings to narrow down the extensive list of amazing Surgical Rockstars affiliated with #1 rated orthopedic hospital in the USA. Dr. William Zelenty’s ratings are so extraordinary that I immediately made an online appointment. After spending a long and informative consultation with Dr Zelenty, I had no doubts that I found my Surgical Rockstar and I signed for a terrifying 3 level ACDF. I’m ten days out from surgery and I’m good! Dr. Zelenty, Evie and his support staff took excellent care of me and I am eternally grateful for their TLC care.

Dr. Zelenty is patient and explained my condition in easy to understand terms, showing scans to further my and my wife's understanding. He is also down-to-earth, warm and engaging. He explained options and ramifications clearly, never pushing us to a decision.

Dr Zelenty inspired such confidence due to his caring, attentive nature. He personally contacted me several times dues to the imminent blizzard warnings for the area & assured me that his whole team would be there for my procedure. He offered a surgical option that was much better in terms of recuperation & keeping my range of motion.
