Patient Reviews
Jul 24, 2023
Dr. Fred Cushner is an AMAZING PERSON & DOCTOR. He never judges his patients by a textbook. But as a person and treating their medical conditions. He goes above and beyond for his patients. Always puts my mind at ease. When I am worried. I suffer from severe rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. He did my total knee replacement on my left knee April of this year. I know that my right knee needs to be done soon. And Dr Cushner would be the one I pick to do it. I am very blessed to have him as my surgeon. When so many doctors didn't want to treat me. Or suggest I go out on complete Disability. But he did and kept his word on making sure I would be just fine. Just trust him. I have a daughter that is about to graduate from high school soon. And Dr Cushner has given me hope again. Were I would be able to sit and stanc at my daughter's graduation. In the past I wasn't able to go to my daughters performances at her school. But I can say come June 2024. I will be able to go to my daughters graduation. Anc see my daughter walk a cross the stage. DR. CUSHNER THANK YOU. YOU ARE A TRUE BLESSING FROM GOD.
