Dr Mitgang is an amazing kind caring patient orthopedist. He took his time in examining my 87 year old mom and treated us like family. His knowledge and treatment plan made us both feel better and hopeful. I would recommend him highly for any orthopedic needs. He is that rare combination of brilliance and humility! Thank you. Dr Mitgang for taking such good care of us!

I was very nervous to have Bi-Lateral Carpal Tunnel Surgery. I had some extra help at home for a few days and was worried I wouldnt be better in time for 2 young kids. Dr Mitgang did an amazing job on my hands. I had near Zero Pain the next day just a little sore on the site. I was very greatful for being reffered to him and would recommend him to anyone with carpal tunnel.

Going to this doctor was the worst mistake I could have ever made! He knows absolutely nothing about orthopedics! Do yourself a favor and pleeeease search around for a different doctor
