Patient Reviews
Nov 20, 2024
Having surgery is never 'fun,' but when it is necessary, one can't expect it to go any better than my recent surgical experience at the hands of Dr. Fitzgerald and the staff at the one-day SOS surgery center in North Syracuse. Dr. Fitzgerald is a warm, friendly, personable, accommodating, knowledgeable and highly skilled physician who scheduled and performed my surgery within days of meeting me for the first time at his office. The treatment and care I received before, during and after my surgical procedure were top-notch in every way! Dr. Fitzgerald and the entire SOS staff make you feel like you're a priority -- with a level of care that that is warm and wonderful! I have been an SOS patient for more than 30 years, receiving care and treatment for a variety of orthopedic issues. In that time, I have always had incredibly positive experiences, and my most recent one with Dr. Fitzgerald was definitely no exception! I highly recommend him and SOS in general for any orthopedic need.
