Patients be aware! I had knee arthroscopy done by Dr.Palumbo. Surgery was unsuccessful. More over, Dr. Palumbo hates immigrant people. He told me, I do not understand whats going on because of my language barrier. I think due to my very thick accent and I think that remark was very inappropriate. Please think twice before scheduling an appointment with that doctor. Surgery outcome depends upon doctors qualification.

Edit: I retracted my previous review which clearly was a mistake to do since the unprofessional behavior of the office continued to happened after their response. By far the most unprofessional office I've ever had the displeasure of dealing with, you would be better all finding an office that knows how to behave professionally and who's office staff doesn't try to play childish games. Not only did they fail to schedule me with the correct doctor but now they have taken to drawing out approving my appointment claiming that they need to review it because of the type of doctor sending the referral

I was a patient of Szczukowski from 1987 thru 2007. I had hip-replacement surgery in 1999, and was 27 years old at that time. From day one, i was never happy with the result. I was never able to return to the type of work that i had been doing prior to the replacement. With no other options, i finally filed for disability in 2019. I was denied disability benefits because The Orthopedic Center submitted a statement that said i COULD work, but would have to do something different. But they based this statement on info from 2009. I haven't even seen Szczukowski since 2007. So i am wondering how he

Having a total hip replacement during a pandemic can be unnerving. The Orthopedic Center pushed all my fears aside. The office is spotless & they're serious about all Covid regulations. The waiting rooms are well regulated so only 2 - 3 patients at the most are spread more than 6 feet apart. Time spent in the waiting room is 5 min or less. The staff are professional & courteous & they don't act like your questions are a nuisance when they speak to you in person or on the phone. Dr. McCoy handled my surgery & I'm 2 weeks post surgery with zero joint pain. I've also been treated by Dr. Anastasio
