Dr. Charles Episalla, MD

I was due for a knee replacement , he took the time to explain the importance of weight loss and risk of infection. He was willing to try Orthovisc as an alternative . Now 10 years later I am 135 pounds lighter and still have my own lnee

I'm walking because of Doc E. I thank him everyday

I am a patient of Dr. Charles W. Episalla, MD and have experiences enormous and repeated risk to my health from day one due to his negligence and deceive at ORMC, and Catskill Orange Orthopedics in Goshen, N.Y., His actions and that of his staff should be investigated or at least reviewed by pertinent authority

Dr. Episalla did a knee replacement on me. I also had two arthroscopies before that, one on each knee for torn cartilage and one with a piece floating under the kneecap. He was a wonderful Dr, and my knee replacement is fantastic. I recommend him very highly.

Rude and nasty receptionist all she cared about was my ins. & l had a broken ankle in 2 places nohelp referring me to someone who took my ins. Even when lwas refered by the e.r.over the weekend. As I believehe was the dr on call that weekend. Had my sutrgery with a wonderfull dr who saw me right away with no concern over ins or $$ jist her patient who was in need

Dr. Episalla treats patients with medicaid like crap. He spent less than a minute with me, and hasn't done squat about the fact that I have been in pain for three years.

Dr Episalla and the doctors at Catskill Orange Orthopedics in Orange/Sullivan counties NY are in the profession purely for the money. He and his partners are only concerned about avoiding malpractice suits and doing as little as possible in order to collect their money. Believe me, they really don't give a hoot about their patients personally. They drag you on with multiple appointments with the hope that they get a chance to operate on you for the big bucks. They are not on top of the latest medications and surgical techniques. Do yourself a favor and go to New York City for the best care.

I was very please with Dr. Episalla with the surgery he performed on my knee and his bedside manner

Epiisalla performed a knee surgery on me at Horton hosp.and has turned into a nightmare. complications resulting from the initial surgery and 3 surgery to undo the mistakes he has done,and left me in agony. My life was not the same due to Episalla unprofessional conduct and medical incompetence.
