I had to get gel injections and I had to wait 1 hour and 30 min !!! To be seen it’s ridiculous! Plz have some sort of coordination making the appointments! People have things to do also not be in the office for hours . That’s not professional . Tell secretary to not over book and schedule what you can handle so u can see people on time . For dr Schwartz.

I was initially referred to Dr Schwartz when I was working for the NY Islanders - as he was
One of their team referrals.
Ever since then - he has literally done countless incredibly successful surgeries on family members - but what we love about him - is surgery is his last option.
He is personable - super knowledgeable - ESPECIALLY for performance athletes or people who don’t want to stay down!
His new location with NYU Langone is beyond incredible. Was able to get an MRI and and X-ray without leaving the office.
Do not hesitate for one second! This guy is top of his game.

I had an excruciating bucket handle meniscus tear, wasn’t able to walk and needed to see an orthopedist immediately. I was referred to Dr. Schwartz’s office and his front desk staff was so accommodating and understanding, they squeezed me in the same day I called.

Dr. Schwartz scheduled me for surgery very quickly, since there was no other alternative. Now I’m 5 weeks post op from repaired meniscus surgery and couldn’t be happier with the results so far. My knee feels zero pain and the swelling has gone down significantly. I totally trust his judgement and skill as a surgeon. Kelly his PA is also awesome.

If you are looking for a physician that has no empathy:
If you are looking for a physician that does not review his prior progress notes, does not remember what he did on the last visit,(and acts like he remembers):
If you are looking for a physician that sends you to a pain specialist, one that you needed to wait for three weeks - acute pain - and then informed that she does not treat your condition:
If you are looking for a physician that does not listen to your concerns,:
If you are looking for a physician who is hands off and does no physical examination:
then I recommend Dr. Michael Schwartz, Orthopedic, highly.
Please note that I was a Podiatric surgeon who trained residents in 5 hospitals throughout New York and a part owner of a surgical center.
Dr. Schwartz is polished and appears very sharp. However, if you scratch the surface you will not get a diamond; only glass
I recommend Orthopedic care at HSS, Northwell Health or even a Veterinarian over Dr. Schwartz.

I had double jaw surgery with Dr Schwartz. I am not new to surgeries and double jaw surgery is considered a major surgery, definitely the most major I’ve ever had. That being said, I’ve never been happier with my results, both cosmetically, functionally, orthodonticallt and medically. Dr Schwartz is great at what he does; he’s a perfectionist, confident, and has a pristine reputation. He’s been kind, patient and caring, and takes pride in his work. I now have the face I should have always had, and I’ll be eternally grateful to Dr. Schwartz. My recovery process has been so much better than all the reviews I read online from patients who used other doctors. Most patients couldn’t talk, or even drink from a cup after surgery. I was running my mouth the second my anestesia wore off, and I was drinking from a cup within an hour. The office and staff are all very professional as well, and were always available to answer all questions. If you’re having second thoughts about going for this surgery, go to Dr. Schwartz, you won’t regret it. My lifelong overgrown jaw deformity is a thing of the past now. I never thought this would be possible. I get compliments all the time and I’m only a few months post op.

Saw the Dr for knee pain and was rushed all 3 visits. Even during the injection my questions were treated as though I was wasting his time. Unprepared in terms of not reviewing notes prior to coming into the room and I felt very much unimportant. I cannot speak to his surgical prowess. Overall i was very disappointed and moved to a prior doctor I used at HSS to resolve the issue.

I have known Dr. Schwartz for many years when he wasat ProHealth in Lake Success. He repaired torn meniscus in both knees and also treated me for bursitis. Aside from being an excellent, kind and caring doctor he is also a very skilled surgeon. You can put your complete trust in Dr. Schwartz!
