I would not recommend Dr Schwartz! He performed two wrist surgeries on my 17 yr old son. The first surgery didn’t heal/graft, which does happen and isn’t that uncommon for this type of injury to the wrist. So, we made the mistake of letting him do the second surgery, this time taking bone fragments from my sons hip bone. The wrist never healed and consistently got worse. Dr Schwartz continued to tell my son that everything was«healing» fine and to give it more time. After about 9mos-1 yr, we went to another highly recommended surgeon for another opinion. We were told that the second surgery should of never happened the way it was done and that after a complete analysis, he would need a third surgery to correct the problems. The second surgeon told us a few things that surprised us that he would say about the work of another Dr, but the short version is the the second surgery was a «hack job» for lack of a better term. We are reasonable people and realize that surgery isn’t a guaranteed fix and that other doctors will have other opinions, but the simple fact that Dr Schwartz would brush off the second surgery as a success(and we do feel like the outcome wasn’t taken serious) and that my son had to endure a third surgery(that we now know could have been avoided), is the biggest problem. After experiencing the difference with the new surgeon VS Dr Schwartz, you owe it to yourself to go elsewhere!

Having very active kids, I saw Dr. Schwartz several times. He is very knowledgable, professional and efficient. Dr. Schwartz goes straight to the point and doesn’t waste your or his time. He is very detailed and explains the problem clearly by giving you all treatment options. My son had also a surgery for his fractured finger that went very well. Dr. Schwartz and his staff are caring and very accommodating; they make sure that their patients are comfortable with the procedure and get the best care during and after the treatment. I trust Dr. Schwartz at Webster Orthopedic Center and highly recommend him for your orthopedic care.

Comments about patient mill are spot on. Showing up for surgery after fasting all night only to be told by the very nice surgical center people that the doctor’s office was working insurance issues is not the way to go into surgery. Adding insult to injury, after more than a two hour wait, I was informed that the doctor’s office would not take the insurance and that I needed to write a check. If I would have known that up front, I would have just written the check! Not receiving return calls from doctor’s office scheduler — while I was waiting in the surgical center waiting room — was beyond rude. Fast forward to post op visit … all I can say is it was not good at all! What’s unfortunate is that the doctor’s apparently capable skills are lost amid the poor office support, combined with his insensitivity during post-op appointment. That’s what happens when you’re just a number!

My experience with Dr. Schwartz is that his practice isn’t a practice, but a patient mill. Exams are EXTREMELY rushed, so rushed that he ‘tells’ you where your pain is!(He was wrong, by the way, but I was too stunned by the exam to say anything.) There are many physicians/surgeons out there who are EXCELLENT, who actually like what they do, and who even treat their patients with courtesy, professionalism, and compassion. Unfortunately, I can’t put Dr. Schwartz into that category. He’s probably a good surgeon, but I’m not sticking around to find out.

Dr. Schwartz repaired my right should a year or so ago. During the surgery he discovered that my bicep tendon was shredded and had to reattached it to my upper humerous. His physician assistant, Josef Maier, was also very helpful in follow-up visits and in answering questions. All in all, he did a terrific job and my recovery has gone very well. I will be seeing him soon for problems with my left shoulder. Highly recommended.

I’ve gone to this office for neck and arm issues and the office staff has been more than pleasant. Seems like the other reviewer may have had a bad attitude in the first place and was hard to please. Out of all of my visits, I’ve never encountered any unfriendly staff.

VERYVERYRUDE office staff. The office manager has the personality of a Nazi officer. If this is the flavor of the office AVOID this medical practice.
