If you want to be told you're faking your injuries because you're not limping hard enough, go to this guy. Apparently he thinks having a syringe stuck in your knee and wriggled around is so much fun that people will lie to get it done.

Wow, what a great experience I had today visiting Dr. Turtel's office. His office staff are incredibly polite, caring, and efficient. The doctor saw me without any wait. He has good people skills and is kind and supportive. He is very professional and competent. He immediately got to work assessing my shoulder and on the road to recovery. I am so pleased that I chose to see Dr. Turtel.

Dr. Turtel is the best & is worth the 65 mile drive from NJ! - I was first referred to Dr. Turtel in 1997 by a friend of mine. The words that caught my attention were "He will listen to what you say, he will order the appropriate tests, he will present you with your options and then ultimately make his recommendation." My right knee problems go back to 1985 when I blew my knee out by ripping 3 of the 4 ligaments and the knee capsule. The operation that took place in PA, which was NOT performed by Dr. Turtel, proceeded to get infected with a staph infection and ultimately a bone infection

Luckily I didn't need any extensive treatment with Dr Turtel, but for the time I was there, I found him to be kind, professional, caring, personable and very helpful. He took his time and did not rush. And his staff is very nice. I didn't know before stepping into his office, he works with many famous professional athletes and Olympians. He is the Osteopathic Surgeon to the stars! Highly recommend Dr Turtel.
