Courteous, pleasant, people person, and kind. Dr. Explains everything and takes one step at a time when surgery is considered last option. He listens and orders up the needed exams i.e. x-ray, scans and MRI to properly diagnose and to determine the treatment plan.

After experiencing severe knee pain and disability, I saw another orthopedist who recommended that I have surgery as soon as possible. He also recommended a stem cell process that was not covered by my insurance and would have cost me $5000 out of pocket. I suffer from serious auto-immune diseases in addition to arthritis. Two of these are life threatening. Dr. Millstein offered me steroid injections and PT to start. He said he would never advise a patient such as myself to jump headlong into surgery without trying more intermediate measures first. He also told me the stem cell therapy that is not covered by insurance or medicare is unlikely to help someone of my age. He injected my knees with the steroids right then and there. My relief was instantaneous. However, the relief continued for the next few days. He said the full beneficial effect would take two weeks. He also prescribed PT along with the steroid shots. I will set up those appointments tomorrow. I am so glad to find something intermediary to try to solve this problem rather than jumping headlong into surgery. Dr. Millstein is not only technically good at his job, he is also compassionate and charming. What more could you ask for in a doctor? I didn't have to wait long in the waiting room either.

Dr. Eric Millstein is always ready to help when I have a problem. He is patient, listens and has answers to questions and finding solutions to a problem. He has done a shoulder surgery and knee replacement for me and has been wonderful. I had a virtual appt. with him yesterday and he, as always, was very helpful with his suggestions on what I should do until I can come in for an, in person, visit. Thank you to the very best orthopedic surgeon I know. I would, and have, remommended Dr. Millstein without hesitation.

Dr. Millstein is knowledgable and direct to work with. He diagnosed my shoulder issue and started treatment which Dr. explained takes a couple of days to take full effect. I already feel some improvement. Judging from only a single visit I feel very satisfied with Dr. Millstein.
