  • “I liked Dr. Schneider's approach to my knee issue; rule out serious problems, don't rush into medical intervention, and see if time and home remedies (icing, compression, and rest) do the healing. What a relief, thank you! ”

  • “I had an injection. The doctor is great, and the staff is too. They move you along from the start until the finish but do not treat you as a number. Everyone answers all questions and makes sure that you are satisfied before you leave. The Clifton Park office is the best.”

  • “I have had the unfortunate experience of caring for my father who suffered from Diabetes, kidney failure, and blindness. My father-in-law who suffered from throat cancer and a tracheotomy, my sister who died from a stroke. My mother-in-law who died from advanced stomach cancer, and my mother who recently passed away from the stage four pancreatic cancer that metastasized into the liver. I have therefore consulted with numerous physicians during the past three years. Dr. Schneider supported my mother and me after she suffered from a broken femur and while I dealt with the incredible frustration with rehabilitation, assisted living, and her return home. He was professional, compassionate, and without a doubt the most successful advocate for my mother and me. My mother passed in January. I will forever be grateful for his guidance and support. The staff at his Catskill office was also incredible. Each professional was extremely caring, knowledgeable, and considerate. My favorite Dr. and office ever. God Bless. ”

  • “Dr. Robert's is a very caring physician. He took the time to explain to me what was happening. I, unfortunately, had complications following my knee replacement. It was just me, no fault of the surgeon. Dr. Robert's was up front and to the point with me. One time I asked him what he would do if it were him in my position. I took his recommendations. It is now later, and I have no pain or residual effects from the complications! ”

  • “I had a total knee replacement done by Dr. Jared Roberts. The first one did in November and the second one in September. I can't say enough how great Doctor Roberts is. My first office visit with him he took his time and explained everything that was going to happen with these surgeries. After the first surgery I was home the second day (with hardly any pain), and after physical therapy, I was driving after four weeks. Second surgery which was on a Monday I was using a cane and not a walker in one week. Stopped using the cane after two weeks and was driving after three weeks. Mandi, his medical secretary, was excellent also. If I had a question, I would email her, and she would get back to me usually the same day. Dr. Roberts was recommended to me by quite a few people, and if anyone is looking for a five-star Orthopedic surgeon to do hips or knees, please consider Dr. Jared Roberts. ”

  • “Dr. Zanaros has done a complete restructure of my rotator cuff using cadaver tissue because mine was such a mess. He did a fantastic job! He is the most caring compassionate doctor ever to exist! I wish he did more than just arms, and I would choose him every time. I am now in the PT stage of my recovery, but he has helped me tremendously, and I recommend him to everyone, even my therapist :) Thank you for everything Dr. Zanaros! ”
