Dr. Birnbaum saved my life. 3 years ago I broke my Femur and he happened to have another patient in the emergency room and saw me and installed a full hip and femur kit. He was concerned how I broke my femur and sent my test to pathology. Turned out I had stage 4 metastatic breast cancer. I was given months to live. His staff rushed me into tests and matched me with a oncologist immediately helping out with insurance and scheduling. I’m happy to say I’m 3 years in and beating cancer and living a normal life. Him and his team are rockstars and saved my life! Highly recommend his team for anything orthopedic.

Dr Birnbaum was thorough and really cared about his surgery. He did not complete surgery until he was completely satisfied with the result. He takes pride in his work. Follow up sessions have been informative as he gives specific and understandable explanations.

I was in the emergency room with a broken ankle and he was in surgery at the time. I was going to go to a Dr. that we were familar with but Dr. Birnbaum is a specialist so we asked him to stop by and speak with us. We were very impressed with his knowledge and felt very comfortable with him. It is now 6 weeks later and I am healing well thanks to his accuracy and experience.
