Dr. William Long, MD

I had been a patient of Dr. Long for approximately 4-5 years. Eventually after having multiple gel shots, cortisone shots in my knees it was evident I had to have a total knee replacement. On August 26, 2019 I had surgery. Went for post of visits complaining of pain in same spot. Well from 8/26/19, forward I had pain in my knee. Covid hit I couldn’t see him until April 2020. I complain again of this pain that keeps me from sleeping. He pulls up an X-ray, from Nov, 2019. He says its perfect! I call him out on using the old x-ray. I start to question what else to do, he says to me, “your going to be one of those people”, I say what do you mean? He whips out his phone, says he has to take a call from wife and walks out the door! I call out your just leaving in the middle of my exam, your “blowing me off?” He walked away never to look back. On Oct.18, 2022 I had partial revision, found out one piece of the original surgery was put in incorrectly! I am pain free no thanks to him!

Dr. Long performed bilateral knee replacement surgery in 2020. He is caring, compassionate and communicates clearly and concisely. He explained what I needed to do and I so appreciated him. I felt confident and trusted him. My surgery was very successful and I am so happy I found him. I highly recommend him.

I had knee surgery by Dr. Long. He is an incredible surgeon and physician in all regards. He listened to all my concerns with such care and attention. The surgery he performed was beautiful. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Dr.Long is very good. I saw 7 surgeons before I chose him.! I did so much research and knew a lot about the different procedures to choose from for 100% acl replacement, 50% mcl tear , torn meniscus and even fractures. Most doctors are cookie cutter surgeons and you are just a number. He is polite, patient and totally understood my heightened fear of just any doctor operating on my precious crippled knee. (I was assaulted) He was Compassionate and positive with the entire process as I was quite depressed. But he really gave me hope and confidence. My knee is strong in 2021 and I had mine done in 2013. I was lucky to choose him.

I've had both my right knee and right hip replaced by Dr Long on different occasions. He did a perfect job on all the surgeries. Within months I was fully recovered and doing whatever I wanted. He was always straight with what was going to occur and the results. I would highly recommend him for any TKA or THA. In fact when its time for my let side to be done..no question, I will be going to Dr. Long.

I like Dr. Long very much. He explains this completely and doesn’t rush you through your appointment. I had meniscus surgery and he did a fantastic job!!!

Tremendous gifted surgeon.

I had knee replacement done by Dr long he was great! Dr long and his assistant Devorah made my experience very pleasant they answer all your questions and put you at ease I am going back to soy other knee I highly recommend Dr long

I'm so pleased with both of my knee replacements. Dr. Long gave me excellent before and after care. Completely trusted him and his team. One surgery done 9/2018 second done 1/2019 and I walking up and down subway steps,buses and walking 20 city blocks without resting. I've lost 30 pounds so far and my range of motion is excellent. Physical therapy is the key and I have done everything I was told. Happy to have my life back. Thank you Dr. LONG and your team.

Extremely competent physician. Listened closely to my complaints and resolved my issues very competently. Highly recommended.

The left hip replaced by Dr. Long failed within months. After nearly a year of crippling pain and expensive testing he said that he couldn’t determine what was wrong. Thank goodness other doctors could (gross loosening). . Had a revision done just a year-and-a-half later and am feeling much better.

Dr. Long not only is a gifted surgeon, but he is also compassionate and patient with a wonderful bedside manner. I originally came to Dr. Long's office with a knee that was basically shattered. Dr. Long took his time before performing surgery to make sure the fractures were healed. Within weeks of the operation, I was living a normal lifestyle. I highly recommend Dr. Long !

Dr. Long replaced my right hip in April 2017. I am 72. I walked out of the hospital the same day. I had no pain. I was walking distances within a week. I was driving 8 days after surgery. I went to PT regularly for several months. Within 5 months my leg and muscles were perfect.

Dr. Long has treated my whole family. My dad had his second knee replaced at 94 by Dr. Long. Perfect. My wife is having her second hip replacement. First was done by Dr. Long. Perfect. No doubt the second will be any different. My daughter in law had knee surgery and took part in a Tough Mudder one week later. I had torn cartilage. Walked out of the hospital. Perfect. His knowledge, skill, and bedside manner are second to none. Knee or hip issue, see him.

I had a full knee replacement 1yr ago. The joint is working great. Other then developing a bakers cyst behind the surgical knee all went well. Dr Long has a great bed side manner. When my next knee is ready I will definitely be seeing him. I would recommend him to anyone that knees a knee replacement.

Dr. Long has been treating me for several years now, for complicated joint issues. He listens, he is thoughtful, he is smart and kind, and always tuned in to what the patient really wants, and needs. He replaced one of my hips and all is well -- it was a bit complex -- EDS, aggressive RA, fibromyalgia are at work in my condition, plus a history of early dance, acrobatics, sports and gymnastics -- lots of injuries. I recommend him highly.

A really caring professional with a excellent team of assistants.

Dr. Long performed my total knee replacement earlier this year. I was walking in rehab 2 days later. I am going to have another (my 9th) surgery in early 2016; arthroscopic Medial Patellofemoral Ligament surgery. I am quite happy with Dr. Long - and that I don't have to get another knee replacement in 10 years on my other knee. He is the best! He listens to my concerns and questions and gives me answers that are viable and real. I wouldn't see any other Doctor than Dr. Long.
