I have been going to Dr. Luks for many years. He's done several orthopedic procedures, including several surgeries, and he is one of the most skilled, compassionate physicians I've ever had the pleasure of being a patient of.

About Me

Care Philosophy
  • Welcome, I'm Howard Luks, a Board Certified Orthopedic Surgeon with offices in Westchester County.

    You will be educated, your quality of life will be given significant priority in determining what next steps will be offered; you and I are a team!

    We will work together to help you achieve your desired goals. I want patients to understand that not all MRI findings require surgery. More often than not there are nonoperative solutions and options which can return you to your desired level of activity. If surgery is necessary. I want my website to provide patients with a wealth of information to supplement what I have told them in the office, so they can make an informed decision, the essence of shared decision making. We all have different values and different goals. Therefore one treatment is not right for all.
