I have seen Dr. Sussman for a chronic plantar fasciitis. I had seen several physicians regarding this condition and he was the only one who was able to cure it completely. He was understanding, patient and committed to finding a remedy and getting me back to working out and pain free. I couldn't be happier with him as an orthopedic physician.
My experience is simple. I had four tears in my elbow. After Dr. Sussman’s performed PRP on me I was skeptical because it did not work for the first 3 weeks then the fourth week the pain level started to go down. I am now 100 percent better. I pay tennis on an A level and now I can even throw a baseball about 300 yard again.
Dr. Sussman is the first physician I've met during the last eight years of seeking an explanation and successful plan of treatment for my hip and sacroiliac pain. Each visit he has shown both his compassion for what I am going through. I trust Dr. Sussman completely. He takes my perspective as a patient into account, allowing us to work as a team towards a goal.
I had been in a lot of pain for about nine years, but did not want to have to have surgery. I had seen several doctors with no real success. I tried the cortisone injections, night splints, and PT but nothing was working. Then someone told me about Tenex and suggested I see Dr Sussman. BEST thing I ever did! He got me booked right away and it was a huge success. It was the easiest surgery and was all done in about 15mins. When he finished he said all set and I could not believe it. It was done with a local block and I walked out in a boot an hour later. I only had to wear the boot for about 10 days and I was good to go. I have been pain free since my surgery over a year ago. I would highly recommend this to anyone! In fact I did send several people to him and they were candidates as well and are also cured.
