Dr.Cushner needs to be multiplied. He is a top surgeon, an amazing bedside manager, and a fabulous leader and teacher to his PAs. I had two surgeries, both beyond successful.

Dr Cushner is an excellent DOCTOR. Who genuinely loves his career & patients. He goes above and beyond for his patients. Doesn’t judge you always listens to your concerns. It is amazing when you and your doctor can agree and talk about your medical conditions. I never have to worry about my health care with him.

Excellent care. I love that he has a full staff who take care of all the preliminary services. He comes and checks on their work and on his patient (me). Very efficient, very smart.

Relies too heavily on Physician Assistants and does not like to be told so... Had an appt at 5:15, noticed 2 others had been scheduled for the same time. At 5:30, was told MD left, no other explanation. We were told we could see his PAs. When I complained in an email to him about this; I was berated by him over the phone. Basically, it's his way or the highway, !

He is quick to diagnose and tell you what your problems are. His staff of PA are excellent. I worked with Brett who has been with Dr. Cushner many years. He is also very knowledgeable and explains what and why your injury feels the way it does. They are both very compassionate and leave you with a "your in good hands" feeling. I personally have seen Dr. Cushner for many years and he has taken care of my shoulder and both knee meniscus tears. He is a great doc and nice guy over all...Funny too..
