At the Columbia Hernia Center we pride outselves on our outcomes. Below are some of the more recent patient reviews left on review sites for our wonderful surgeons:
“I had a very large Hernia for over 15 years . When the first two doctors I visited for consultation did not want to try the repair I was referred to Dr Novitsky and his team at NYP and Columbia Hernia Center. Dr Novitsky was like a breath of fresh air when I first visited him I knew he was the Doctor I had been searching for.. My appointment was scheduled in April and I under went a very long and successful repair . Dr Novitsky and His team were the best, I was treated wonderfully and the repair has been going well thus far I am now going into my fifth week of recovery and am so amazed at the way it all looks. It has been a life changing experience And I have this exceptional Doctor and Team to Thank they have given me back so much that I had lost over the period of many years. Thank You so much for all you do”
“I had an excellent experience with Dr. Dina Podolsky. She was extremely professional, kind, and attentive. She took the time to listen carefully to my concerns, patiently answered all my questions, and made sure I felt comfortable and well-informed throughout the visit.
I was particularly impressed by her knowledge, professionalism, and genuine care for her patients. I never felt rushed, and I truly appreciated the time and attention she gave me.
I would highly recommend Dr. Podolsky to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, compassionate, and dedicated physician.”
“Dr. Philip George is truly a world class expert surgeon. I had a reoccurring hernia with muscle separation, I was in a lot of pain. Prior I consulted with many surgeons across the state and they all declined to take my case due to the complexity and the muscle separation they said it was above their expertise. For a second, I thought I was losing hope on one day being repaired. Until I was referred to Dr. Philip George, he was attentive, caring, and a true expert in the field. With his innovative techniques, he was able to take my case. I was truly Blessed to have such a world class expert repair me and make me healthy again. Thank you so much Dr!!!”
“Dr. Addo is a wonderful doctor. He performed a complicated abdominal wall reconstruction/hernia repair on me last spring. The surgery took several hours. He came in to the hospital on his day off to check on me. He followed up personally during my recovery. The surgery itself went very well, and I believe it is due to Dr.Addo’s skill as a surgeon and his concern for his patients.
