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.

Excellent health care
Dr Lisser is patient, very knowledgeable as well as accommodating.

Excellent! He did surgery on my right rotator, several years ago. When anyone talks about having this kind of surgery, I tell them to see Dr. Lisser, and then I show them my scar. Well it’s more like a small scratch. Wonderful job, wonderful Dr.

Dr Lisser did surgery on my left shoulder, right shoulder, and reconstruction of my right wrist. I am a retired dermatological surgeon. I highly recommend Dr Lisser with 5 stars. He is an excellent orthopedic surgeon.

Dr Arnold Zimmerman in Ocean, NJ – Mar 08, 2019

Unwilling to work with me regarding a less invasive surgery for my shoulder. At 51 years old, with a tear in my shoulder causing me intermediate pain, mostly when I'm sleeping, and not any other time, Dr. Lisser wanted to cut off my shoulder and install / replace it with a new, prosthetic unit. I asked him 3 times what was the success rate, and 3 times he refused to answer. I need orthoscopic surgery to remove a minor tear. He wouldn't do anything other than complete replacement

I have been seeing Dr Lisser for a shoulder rotator cuff injury sustained during a car accident (I was stopped at traffic light when rear-ended) in a crash. He has been great and I believe he truly cares that I have the best recovery possible

Amazing experience with Dr. Lisser. After going to numerous doctors who were unable to fix my wrist I am finally pain-free. Courteous staff who were very friendly and answered all of my questions and concerns. The best orthopedist in the area.

I am a dentist who needed evaluations and surgery on both my hands. I have a son who works with many surgeons and medical reps. He did the research to find "thee" doctor in NJ and it was Dr. Lisser. Steve is a fantastic surgeon and always shows great care and concern. I never feel like he is rushed and ALWAYS takes the time to explain everything.

This individual is useless. I can not even call him a professional doctor. I went to him on the recommendation of the ER 2015 staff at Riverview Medical Center, biggest MISTAKE of my life. He is unprofessional, rude, does not listen and did not correct my broken wrist. After later going to a professional in central NJ; I was told by a professional that I should have had surgery. Now I am stuck with a maluion/deformed wrist. Thanks to this unprofessional. RUN, RUN, as far away.

I am a surgeon who suffered a comminuted olecranon fracture racing road bike. Dr. Lisser knew my career and social life depended on my arm. Dr. Lisser's operation and post-operative care were cutting edge. Totally fixed!

From the moment you meet Lisser and his staff for you realize that they are in this just for the money and nothing else. Every interaction is an example of sub par service. His staff lacks courtesy, empathy, barely do what's necessary. He's at the door the moment he walks in and is waiting to rush out. The dislike for their jobs is obvious in the patient experience they provide. I am still recovering (slower than expected) so can't comment on how well he did or did not do my surgery. Avoid them

Awesome Doctor. I had 2 rotator cuff tears and a bicep tear repaired in Jan 17 by Dr. Lisser. I was out of the sling in 3 weeks and just recently golfed a few rounds. Although not typical, my recovery was exceptionally pain free and faster than projected and I'm no spring chicken at age 56.
