Dr. Sussman offered me hope!

I had been suffering with hip pain for many years and was told there was nothing I could do but PT and cortisone, neither of which were working anymore. Dr. Sussman recommended Tenex and said he believed I would be helped by the procedure. I had the procedure done two weeks ago. Minimal pain and recovery. Hoping it worked!

Truly one-of-a-kind. Brilliant! Amazing! Kind!

Dr. Sussman was able to diagnose an issue I have had for over 15 years that no doctor was able to identify or treat correctly. He saved my life in many ways! I honestly believe he is one of the most sincere and truly caring doctors/people I know and I will forever be grateful for his support and help! He is genius in what he does!

Couldn’t be happier

I received prp for a split rotator cuff tendon as well as to my left si ligaments which I had sprained multiple times and had been really bothering me for the past 2.5 years. I went to him thinking I had bicep tendinitis but he ordered an mri which showed a plait supraspinatus tendon. He then recommended prp and agreed to do to my left si ligaments at the same time. I had been dealing with the si joint dysfunction for about 2 years at the time and had made some progress with PT and getting my pelvis aligned properly but it would still go out on me with almost any real activity.
He explained everything extremely thoroughly and in an understandable way and everything he said lined up with the research I had done and I can say now, all played out as he said.
Today is exactly 8 weeks out and I started lifting again on 4 days ago and the shoulder held up great. Day to day back pain is almost nonexistent too (as long as I keep up with my stretches). Couldn’t be happier with the results.

tenex surgery was succesful, such improvement in use of foot

tenex has given me mobility in my fused ankle that I haven't had in 27 years. The stability of walking on declines has improved my ability to enjoy the out doors and to enjoy every day life without pain.

My experience with Dr. Sussman was very positive.

I had the Tenex procedure preformed on my right hip. On my first visit with Dr. Sussman he was very positive, confident and knowledgeable about my diagnosis. He told me exactly what was going to happen during the procedure and he was correct. It was certainly a much better alternative to surgery. I had minimal pain after the procedure and after two months later I am 80% better. I would highly recommend checking out this procedure instead of surgery.

Dr. Sussman is TOP NOTCH!

Dr. Sussman is really one of the best physicians I’ve ever had care for me. I’ve had chronic pain and several other issues for a long time and I’ve seen countless specialists for these ailments. I saw Dr. Sussman for hip pain and a nasty nerve pinch plaguing my left hip (for 6 months). I tried PT, Acupuncture and massage prior…each helped slightly but didn’t fix the issue. Dr. Sussman diagnosed it as SI joint dysfunction. He started with a cortisone injection which helped a bit and proved that it was the in fact my SI joint. He then did a PRP injection a couple months later. It was a bit stiff and sore for a couple days (as expected) but now it’s doing amazing! Just a week after the injection, I snowboarded in Colorado for 3 days straight and didn’t have any pain or any nerve pinches! Dr. Sussman is incredible. You can tell he truly cares about his patients and wants the best for us. I highly recommend seeing him for any of your own issues!
