Joseph J. Giovinazzo, MD

"I had an appointment today at 9:45 AM and was there on time, fyi. After 55 min of waiting , exactly 10:40 AM, I asked the front desk guy (young male) If the doctor was even in the office ? The front desk guy was not only rude in his response but was also very unprofessional, "The doctor is busy and you’re going to have to wait"."

"Have to say, Dr.G Is one of the best ortho surgeons in the business. I had two rotator cuff surgeries in the past year (NO! He didn't make a mistake on the 1st one). Anyway, the man is a professional. Many people may be intimidated by his extreme down to buisness approach. I embraced it. He told me what was what and how to get well quickly and efficiently.My surgery was though workmans comp and the office handled everything beautifully.The set up my PT and all was great. Somehow I reinjured the tendon. Don't know what happened but went back to him and he repaired it with no issues afterward. I highly recommend Dr. G if you're looking for a no nonsense professional to address your issues. 5 stars all the way around. Exceptional staff as well. Good luck and make the right choice if you need surgery. Mr. Richard Conti."

"In 2016 Dr Giovinazzo performed a successful shoulder surgery at Staten Island Hospital . . I had excellent experience with the doctor and his staff including the hospital"

"Absolutely amazing doctor, I had to get a ACL and meniscus surgery done and Dr. giovinazzo was sure to be there for me every step Of the way. From while I was waiting to get into the OR to when I woke up from anesthesia. He explained everything that was done and sent me home with specific instructions to help me recover. I was anticipating pain the first few days and I was wrong. Absolutely no pain at all and I didn’t even need the medication that was prescribed. He called me 3 days later to check in on me and guide me through any questions I had. I’m very grateful ."

"Dr. Giovinazzo was excellent. He took time to explain my surgery and did not rush me when I had questions. The whole office was so kind. I would highly recommend him."
