“As my doctor, he always made me feel I was his only patient of the day. Always asking me about my concerns, as well as expressing his and clearly spelling out his plan of attack. Because I live 4 hours north of Albany, he and his staff were always very accommodating in making appointments and being mindful of the necessity of the trip.”

“I met Dr. Alfred through a mutual friend in the past. A few weeks back, I twisted my knee which resulted in discomfort and swelling. I contacted The Bone & Joint Center requesting an appointment with Dr. Alfred and the office was kind enough to fit me into his schedule on May 31, 2016. Dr. Alfred diagnosed the problem and provided the appropriate treatment which has solved the issue. Great to have skilled physicians available to us in the Albany area. The experience could not have been better.”

“While training for a half-marathon, I started to experience knee pains. I was referred to Dr. Shatynski for a consult. He was friendly, professional, and thorough. His diagnosis and recommendations were instrumental in recovering from an IT band injury that was a result of over-training. He provided me with advice and a plan to heal and prevent the injury from reoccurring. I was very pleased with him and would not hesitate to refer or return to him for treatment in the future.”

“Just had pain problem in my right foot that Dr. DiPreta did surgery on 2 years ago. After a careful exam, he pinpointed the problem, but had xrays done just to make sure nothing was broken. He had a foot brace put on, and I am now going to PT for 6 weeks, as it is posterior tibular tendonitis. I think he's pretty top notch!”

Patient Rating:

“In early May, I fell and felt pain in my left leg. I requested an appointment with Dr. Richard Alfred, who saw me the same afternoon. He reviewed my xrays and quickly diagnosed a non-displaced fracture in my left fibula. He recommended that I carry on with my normal activities. Dr. Alfred indicated that the pain would dissipate in approximately six weeks and that I could take over the counter pain relievers such as Advil or Aleve. He checked in with me over the subsequent weeks and his estimate of my recovery was spot on. I did not miss a day of work, nor teaching, and in the time frame Dr. Alfred had indicated, my leg was, indeed, back to normal.”
– Gerald S.
