Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Fantastic Shoulder Replacement Surgeon!
I have had both shoulders replaced by Dr. Aronowitz and her team. Both experiences were excellent. Very little pain after the surgerys. Back to my active lifestyle thanks to Dr. Aronowitz. She has a great bedside manner and took the time to get to know me and what my concerns were. All I can say is Thank You!

Both shoulders done!
I had a replacement in my left shoulder and a total repair of a torn rotator cuff in my right shoulder. I could not have asked for a better surgeon to do both. Excellent in ever way imaginable. Everything was explained in detail pre-surgery and I felt little or no pain at all post surgery. Outcomes with on going physical therapy have so far been outstanding as well.

Total reverse shoulder replacemnet
Prior to this surgery I was in pain daily, couldn't use my left arm to do anything without worsening the pain. Post surgery, pain almost completely gone. One year later I continue to live pain free from my left shoulder, and can do almost any kind of work or other activity. It may never be as strong or have the complete range of motion my other shoulder has but I enjoy being absolutely pain free. Thank you Dr. Aronowitz for the great relief and returned functionality of my left shoulder.

Shoulder replacement surgery on January 13th, it's November 10th, and I have been out this summer, paddling my kayak, cutting brush, and playing ball toss with my dog. I have only the best to say about Dr. Aronowitz and the post-surgical care i received from EMHC physical therapy. I have no pain whatsoever, and only a small restriction of motion.

Very good surgeon, had my shoulder repaired and 2 months later had minimal pain. I know of others that had someone else and they had pain for at least 7 months and continue to have limited mobility. I recommend her and her staff highly.

I've seen many surgeons prior for other orthopedic injuries and none have been as thorough or patient-centered as Dr. Aronowitz. I saw her for reoccurring wrist pain and she ruled out the possibility of a break and referred me to PT. Dr. Aronowitz was not rushed, did a thorough examination, and had a great bedside manner. I highly recommend her to anyone with orthopedic injuries.

Dr Aronowitz is very knowledgeable, informative, explains completely what is to happen/what you will feel, she is never rushed, always takes her time with me. Surgery was an incredible success with her. I'm raving about her to anyone who will listen or who needs shoulder surgery like I did. She is incredible!!!!!
