Dr. Visotsky takes advantage of patients' lack of medical knowledge to do procedures to you that you do not need. He tell you that you need things done when in reality it just makes him more money and puts his patients at higher risk of complications and pain. Furthermore, of the procedures he does do, he uses outdated techniques that are not even the standard of care for this millennium. He also bills for procedures he did not adequately perform, meaning he unjustifiably collects more money from you and your insurance. You may think you're getting good care, but in reality he's just making more money off of you by doing things to you that are not necessary and cause actual harm. My friend has been living with persistent pain because of the things Dr. Visotsky did to him. Stay as far away as you can from this guy.

Horrible service ,almost 100 minutes late, spent literally 1 minute with me and then nurse practioner talked. Scheduled me for the procedure at their surgical center KNWING that I'd never be able to have it done there due to my BMI and thenrescheduled my procedure for a month later when I needed this done and was PROMISED if not that Thursday it would be Wedsnesday.

Dr. Visotsky entered the room looked atthe x ray and pointed out that therewas bone on bone between the thumb andforefinger. He gave me a steroid shotin two places on my hand. He did not exam my hand or wrist or ask me any questions. He left the room mumbling"surgery". Also gave me a soft brace. Theshots were ineffective.I feel a differentand more extensive problem exists.

Such a nice, caring, and funny Doctor I had the honor of spending a couple months with him when I was training for my MA certificate and he is a GREAT Dr. He is also the Dr. that performed two surgeries on my husband that went off without a hitch! You have reached a great Dr. for your care!
