Dr. Fred Cushner is an AMAZING PERSON & DOCTOR. He never judges his patients by a textbook. But as a person and treating their medical conditions. He goes above and beyond for his patients. Always puts my mind at ease. When I am worried. I suffer from severe rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. He did my total knee replacement on my left knee April of this year. I know that my right knee needs to be done soon. And Dr Cushner would be the one I pick to do it. I am very blessed to have him as my surgeon. When so many doctors didnt want to treat me. Or suggest I go out on complete Disability. But he did and kept his word on making sure I would be just fine. Just trust him. I have a daughter that is about to graduate from high school soon. And Dr Cushner has given me hope again. Were I would be able to sit and stand at my daughters graduation. In the past I wasnt able to go to my daughters performances at her school. But I can say come June 2024. I will be able to go to my daughters graduation. And see my daughter walk a cross the stage. DR. CUSHNER THANK YOU. YOU ARE A TRUE BLESSING FROM GOD.

I can only rate the office on its staff and Dr. Cushner on how well my visits were every time I went to his office. He has been top notch in terms of my medical care that I have received in his office! Dr. Cushner has gone out of his way to look after me and many other doctors wouldnt have extended themselves for a patient with multiple health problems. If I could give Dr. Cushner five more stars I would but I will review him when I come out of my surgery.

I was referred to Dr. Cushner from my physiatrist who recently left St. Louis to work at HSS in NYC. I was having terrible trouble recovering from my bilateral knee replacement because I needed my patellas resurfaced. My surgeon in St. Louis would not agree to do it so I went NY and had a consultation with Dr. Cushner. Dr. Cushner immediately saw the problem and two weeks later, I had my left patella resurfaced at HSS. The surgery was successful so I decided to have the right patella resurfaced two months later. Now my challenge is learning how to walk correctly with two working knees! Dr. Cushner and his office were wonderful to deal with. They were responsive when I needed post-op support; they were great listeners, and were respective of my needs, concerns, and questions. I highly recommend Dr. Cushner if you are in need of an orthopedic knee surgeon. Hi

Dr. Cushner performed a total knee replacement on me 18 days ago. Not going to lie, the first few days were pretty terrible, but that is just the nature of the surgery. Dr. Cushner was extremely thorough, answered any and all questions, and made me feel at ease. Although this is a low risk, routine surgery, it doesn't seem that way when it is your knee they are operating on. As a young patient (only 50), I was hesitant about going through with replacement, but I am glad I did it, and thrilled with the entirety of HSS. It was more like a concierge service than a hospital. You would push the button in the hospital room, and someone was there almost immediately to help you. He is concerned about the recovery and your pain as well. I have to have my other knee replaced as well, and there is no doubt about having Dr, Cushner do the surgery and doing it through HSS.

Dr. Cushner is excellent. I had a total right knee replacement in Jan. 2022. The surgery was uneventful and my recovery was quick. Dr Cushner and his staff were the most professional and helpful medical people I have ever seen. They were responsive on the phone and worked with me to schedule convenient appointments. They followed up after I went home and made sure I had the visiting PT for the first two weeks. (after that, it is critical to get a good outpatient PT and to be diligent about your exercises in order to heal properly). Dr. Cushner told me it takes a year to heal completely.By July I was walking 4 or 5 miles a day, biking and swimming with my family. It is wonderful to be free of knee pain. Dr. Cushner provided me with more than a new knee--he gave me my life back. I'm very grateful and would recommend him to anyone contemplating a TKR.

On 6/2/22 I had total knee replacement on my left knee with Dr. Cushner. The care I received with Dr. Cushner and HSS has been excellent. I put off the surgery for years due to my relatively young age and the extra weight I carry. Dr. Cushner assured me of my success and he was right! I feel confident that with my new knee, Ill be on the move and therefore lose the weight that my bone on bone knee was preventing me from losing. Im already thinking of getting my right knee done much sooner than I initially planned. Do the research, put the work in and put trust in the best doctor and hospital!

Dr Cushners entire team are caring and exceptional professionals. From schedules to appointments to prescription refills, someone was always available to assist me. I was so fortunate to have chosen Dr Cushner to perform a total knee replacement. The results so far are extraordinary. Ive scheduled the other knee already!

I needed a new knee and the surgery was particularly complicated because I already had a plate and five screws in my tibia from an injury eight years ago. In one surgery and one incision, Dr. Cushner removed three screws and implanted a functioning knee. It's only been 4 weeks and I'm already more mobile, in less pain, and have a gait that's taken the stress off my back. I attribute Dr. Cushner's skill as a surgeon to the fact that I'm recovering as well as others I know who've had much less complicated knee replacements. I was familiar with high quality of care at HSS because two of my grown children had surgeries there. There's always anxiety before having a surgery like this, but what I never worried about was the surgeon or the hospital. I know I still have more work ahead of me, but I'm confident I'll be enjoying more activities than I've been able to in the last eight years. Dr. Cushner was recommended to me and he's the doctor I would recommend to anyone else.

I am 8 weeks post op from Total Knee Replacement with Dr. Cushner and the whole team at HSS. Dr. Cushner has a great demeanor and always takes his time to answer any questions. A real pro. If you are going for TKR, there is absolutely no reason to go anywhere else. I could not be happier with my surgical outcome and progress. I am already back to full range of motion and am steadily getting my strength and endurance back in my knee. Dr. Cushner and his staff were always available to answer any questions or concerns that arose after the surgery. Overall, a very positive experience and would recommend Dr. Cushner and HSS to anyone looking at this procedure

Before I met Dr.Cushner I went to see 7 other Doctors from NJ to NYC including Dr. Padget from HSS. They were all knowledgeable and very direct with the information they gave. However not all of them had the proper bed manners or remembered what they said on previous visits. And for sure none of them had time for any questions or dialogue to the before, during and after the total knee replacement surgery. Some of them were a little arrogant, It is an invasive surgery and you need to be comforting, and humble for your patient. My knee surgery has been a success from beginning to end.I just completed my 2nd year from the date of my surgery. My knee and scar is unbelievably amazing. The are no bumps and no uneven marks. I have seen so many other peoples scars and mine is amazing compared to theirs. This man is a miracle worker with the patience of a saint. I was truly blessed when I found him. I would recommend anyone and everyone to go see him if you have any knee issues.

This is one of the best doctors I have ever encountered. Before I met Dr.Cushner I went to see 7 other Doctors from NJ to NYC including Dr. Padget the Associate Surgeon in Chief and Clinical Director at HSS. They were all knowledgeable and very direct with the information they had to give. However not all of them had the proper bed manners or remembered what they said on previous visits. And for sure none of them had time for any questions or dialogue to the before, during and after the total knee replacement surgery. Some of them were a little arrogant, I dont care about how well you are known or the Who you worked with. It is an invasive surgery and you need to be comforting, and humble for your patient.
My knee surgery has been a success from beginning to end I just completed my 2nd year from the date of my surgery and my knee is so much better. My scar is unbelievably amazing. The are no bumps and no uneven marks. I have seen so many other peoples scars and mine is amazing compared to theirs. This man is a miracle worker with the patience of a saint. I was truly blessed when I found him. I would recommend anyone and everyone to go see him if you have any knee issues. He is truly a doctor who cares, and spends time with his patients for questions or explanations. God bless this man always!

At 63 years old, I had a total left knee replacement on 5/21/21. Dr. Cushner explained everything to me and answered all my questions (and I had lot of them) before and after the surgery. I expected severe post-op pain but that never transpired. I think I hit may have had a 4 out of 10 on the pain scale!
I gained almost total range of motion after only 2 1/2 weeks and only needed had 4 weeks of PT. Extremely pleased with the outcome!
Now here I am, 10 weeks after surgery and I scheduled the total right knee replacement for the end of August.
I have full confidence in Dr. Cushner and highly recommend him to all!
Thank you Dr. Cushner!!

My husband (77) had a Total Knee Replacement by Dr Cushner. The experience was great. Dr Cushner was professional and personal. During return visits he was very attentive and encouraging. We are still in Rehabilitation at HSS Bergen and he is doing well.

Dr. Cushner repaired the meniscus in my right knee. He did the same procedure 10 years ago in my left knee. Both surgeries were a success and he was able to schedule both right away. I hike, climb and play tennis regularly. I heartily recommend him and thank him! He and the staff at HSS were great.
