I treated with him 5 months as he refused to authorize a MRI with contrast, I suffered with pain ; Second opinion I require surgery to repair 2 tears in my shoulder. My advise, just fine another Doctor this one has a very poor attitude..

Dr. Teja has performed both arthroscopic and replacement surgery on my knee. He is capable and compassionate. I enjoy seeing him again at check-up time.

I fell in my yard on some tree roots that were sticking up out of the ground and broke my ankle badly and tore some stuff on the inside of my knee. Hackettstown ER told me I would need surgery and sent me to see Dr. Teja. First surgery he did for me he put a 6 inch metal plate on my fracture. Second surgery he fixed my knee and third surgery a year later he took the metal plate out of my ankle. With all the damage that I did myself I'm really surprised that I was ever able to walk again. Dr. Teja did a great job and I am happy to say that I can wear high heels as well as run on trails again. .
