Patient Satisfaction

How likely are you to recommend Dr. Lipson?
This is the surgeon to see if you need hand surgery. Great staff as well including the surgery center. I have now had both my left and right CMC joints completed with tendon grafting. Doing well. One was recent and still in post suture removal beacd. I couldn’t be more pleased with surgical outcomes or the handling of my case. Dr. Lipson understands how his patients feel and treats all with compassion and dignity. His staff — nurses, billing, front desk — are all kind and helpful. Definitely helps these old arthritic hands. The scarring is minimal and people don’t notice if I don’t point it out. If I were giving a grade he would be an A++
