Testimonials

  • Dear Doctors, Nurses, Therapists and support staff,

    This is a big THANK YOU for all the expert and attentive care you extended towards my recovery from a broken pelvis and elbow after a spill on black ice in December ’09.

    Let everyone know, there is Zumba after broken bones heal.

    I recienved excellent care at Greenwich Hospital, with elbow surgery by Dr. Geene (yay for titanium).

    {Each of you as a part of this “total team” took me from being in excruciating pain and bedridden to no pain and full function and then some!}

  • Dear, Dr. Greene,

    It has been 6 weeks since you mended my fractured left clavicle and I continue to make progress in my recovery. I estimate that my range of motion in the shoulder is close to 90% and I am beginning to cautiously build strength in the muscles affected by my injury.

    I wish you a wonderful wish you a wonderful Thanksgiving, and this year I am especially grateful for having such a great orthopedist as you.
