David Weiss at NYU

I highly recommend David Weiss. He did 'torn meniscus' surgeries on both my knees. His main client is the NYC Ballet.

His contact info is:

Dr. David Weiss
530 1st Avenue, #5D
NYC, 10016
212-263-7743

Mark--good luck with this.

I second David Weiss and also Phil Bauman (the current orthopedist of choice for Broadway dancers) - his office is at 345 W. 58th St. and he practices at St. Lukes Roosevelt.

Does only knees. He's great.

A top knee guy

I highly recommend Elliot Hershman at Lenox Hill Hospital. He is the NY Jets doctor, but, he has a very warm bedside manner - not at all the jock-type personality. He's also not the type to push surgery as an easy option the way some sports med guys do.

Thanks all. Saw Howard Levy who is in pratice with Elliot Hershman at Lenox Hill Hospital (the Jets guy). Sort of underwelmed by him. Didn't look at the knee, just the xray. Sent for two months PT. Will see, I guess.

thanks again,
