Dr Pushilin is the best doctor. I had a spiral fracture of the tibia, fibula and broken ankle. Dr Pushilin was kind, knowledgeable, and an amazing surgeon. He explained clearly my initial injury, the surgical procedure and what my healing process would entail. The healing progressed exactly the way he said it would. Today, except for a small scar, you can’t tell my leg was ever broken and I have been able to resume all my previous activities. Thank you so much for Dr Pushilin.

I have never had to recover from a mobility impairing injury (hip fracture); and so there was a lot of uncertainty in dealing with the injury, potential complications, and recovery timeline to get back to normal.
The UOA physical therapist, Stephen Pavoni, had the experience and knowledge to properly diagnose my physical therapy needs and develop a plan to accelerate my recovery. Specifically, Steve assessed my range of motion limitations and performed the necessary manipulations to mobilize my joint. He also developed a set of exercises that would strengthen the hip joint and related muscle groups to enable my recovery. Importantly, at every session, Steve and his colleagues supervised my exercise routines and made nuanced adjustments to my technique.
When necessary, Steve was able to easily communicate with my UOA surgeon, Dr. Pushilin, and access related medical records to ensure continuity in my recovery.
Lastly, the UOA Somerset staff (receptionists and technicians) were always helpful, courteous, and supportive of my needs. Thank you!
