Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Drucker is thorough and proficient in guaranteeing his patients receive the best care and quality experience during their hip replacement surgery. The entire staff in the office and in the hospital were professional and caring. I highly recommend Dr. Drucker for your replacement surgery.

Workmens Comp injury . Dr Drucker is no nonsense..... this is what you need ! When do you want to do it. I wasn’t ready for several years. Big mistake! He replaced my left knee. Give the knee a 90% score.... nothing is perfect! The normal 4 to 5 rated pain , swollen at the end of day, limp gone! 1/7/2020 had my right knee replaced. Doing great! Recovery a bit rough but worth it. The effort you put into recovery is key. Dr Drucker did his part , next is yours. Do the therapy ( I picked TLC Clove Rd) and exercises , stretches they ask you to do at home and it will turn out great. Push yourself and you will be extremely happy in the end! The staff is great. Very helpful. As in anywhere you go .....Treat them as you want to to be treated. Coffee and donuts wouldn’t hurt either! ??????????

Dr Drucker replaced my left hip in December of 2017. I had no pain and still doing exercises recommended by Physical Therapists. Dr Drucker explained everything well before and after surgery. Saw Dr Drucker for follow up visit last month. He asked about arthritis in other hip. I gave him his quote' if it ain't broke don't fix it'. Therefore we are leaving the other hip alone. I highly recommend Dr Drucker for hip replacement surgery.

He's the reason I went elsewhere for my hip replacements. I have no problem with a doctor being straightforward and honest but his manner is disgraceful and indicates a lack of human connection.

Great doctor! He goes the extra mile. With all of my health issues and countless doctor visits, he was the first time I’ve had a doctor take the time to conference call two other doctors to organize a treatment plan going forward. There’s also a great office staff that genuinely cares and will help you however they can. The most important part! The surgery was a great success. It went so well that I’m having the other hip done only 3.5 months after the left hip replacement surgery.

Dr Drucker is my hero. I fell and broke my hip replacement and femur they were not sure if I would ever walk again! I was lucky he was on duty that day 10/18/06 at SI hospital. After a nine hour surgery happy to say it was a miracle! He does have a no nonsense personality but I think its because he's too busy concentrating on how he can heal his next patient. You will be very lucky to have him as your surgeon just like I was!

I have never given such a negative review to a professional and my only problem is that I could not give less than one star. His rude and bully attitude went along with the less than 5 minute meeting we had. He would not answer any question I asked and told me he had other patients waiting. He then actually thumbed his finger to the door telling me my time was over. Worse excuse for a medical person I have ever encountered.
