Nicole Giusti (Nicole)
I highly recommend Dr. D'Agostini she has a heart for children and shows kindness and compassion to me and my son. She's extremely knowledgeable and is able to communicate effectively. She was so gentle calm and focused as we navigated a very scary circumstance together. We are so very blessed to have had her as our doctor and we have really enjoyed her warmth as well as her humor. She helped use immensely and we are truly grateful.
YESSIKA MORALES
Pediatric Orthopedics has provided exceptional care to two of my kids on more than one occasion. Dr. Rieger is kind, funny and knows how to interact with kids to make them relax. It is also a relief as a parent to know your child is in such experienced and capable hands.
I have recommended this practice to family and friends and will continue to do so.

There may be waits occasionally but it is part of the specialization (you cant control when someone breaks a bone or has an emergency). Staff has always been apologetic and responsive when a wait is required.
Response from the owner:We are thrilled to receive such a positive rating! Knowing that our services are valuable is encouraging. We consistently work to provide excellent assistance. We are also glad to hear that our team is responsive and communicative.

Dr. Friedman was so thorough and kind with my 3.5 year old. She explained everything that was going on in a clear way and made me feel at ease.

We met Dr. Bloom in the ER at Goryeb after a snowboarding accident and he was very kind to my daughter. He made her feel comfortable and I trusted his care. She is healed and I’m very appreciative of all he did! Thank you so much!
Response from the owner:What a wonderful review, thank you so much! It is our aim to provide compassionate assistance and instill confidence. We are glad to hear of the positive result!
Marcela Cordero
My daughter was seen late yesterday by MD Alexandra D’Agostini , she is the best !!! I am still speechless for her amazing service . she could have just sent us away as other would , but instead she did all that was needed to treat my daughter right at that moment to ensure my little one was on the right path to recovery. She went above and beyond, eternally grateful . This is a MD that shows passion for her work of line and more importantly caring for the patients. very transparent. The world needs more like her. I shared to my family that I hope no one else breaks a bone but if it happens I know just the right place and person to go to. (P.s. this is the second time my daughter is treated at this facility, am happy we once more decided to return here ) . I barely ever leave reviews but this MD deserves and there is not enough words to thank her .
Response from the owner:Thank you for the 5-star rating and wonderful feedback! We’re so glad you chose The Pediatric Orthopedic Center and appreciate your trust in our care.
