    Shortest distance to complete recovery! I came to get my knee fixed. Dr. Schoifet fixed it!! In 8 short weeks, I danced my way to 18 holes of golf! What else needs to be said? Nothing.

    I'm 90 years old and upon meeting the doc I felt very comfortable. He talked straight and just told me what was what. I like people like that. The staff was great, they put me at ease. Thank you.

    The staff provided me with all the answers to any questions I had concerning both my total knee replacements. The pleasant staff was constantly in touch with me. I cannot recommend Dr. Schoifet enough.
