Dr. Michael Knudsen, MD

From the Call Center, Front desk, the medical staff and the Physician were impeccably friendly; Professional with compassion to your individual needs. May sure you had understanding of your condition and the treatment. But most importantly we felt listen to and not rushed. Highly recommend this provider and this facility.

All support staff and clinicians were very professional and empathetic.

I recently underwent arthroscopic surgery to repair 2 torn tendons in my rotator cuff, and the care I received from Dr. Knudsen, his team, and the rest of the staff at NY Presbyterian Westchester was outstanding. His entire practice is organized, efficient, and thorough. From our very first meeting, I felt confident that he had my best interests and recovery outcome in mind. Dr. Knudsen takes a personalized approach to his care. He thoroughly explained all the options, precautions, and considerations during our initial consultation.On the day of surgery, Dr. Knudsen meticulously documented the procedure with photos of my shoulder and promptly shared them with my wife to reassure her that everything had gone smoothly. For anyone experiencing a shoulder issue, I strongly recommend consulting with Dr. Knudsen. Not only is he an expert in shoulder care, but he is also straightforward, considerate, and truly dedicated to his patients' well-being.

As the title says he’s right up there. Excellent explanation of the situation. Precise and straightforward.

A wondering caring Doctor. Explained everything to me and put my fears to rest.

Dr. Knudsen saw me and referred me for an MRI. Upon receiving the scan, he suggested that I have surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff on my dominant side. I knew that I had been through this same painful situation just two years ago. Back then, I was examined by another great doctor, and since hydrotherapy was not available, I chose physical therapy rehab. Knowing that it was not my first rodeo when it came to sustaining injuries or setbacks, I believed that I would greatly benefit from physical therapy and make a complete recovery, as I had in the past. While Dr. Knudsen advised me and gave his honest opinion, I had already resigned to not having any surgery. Therefore, I pleasantly requested a physical therapy prescription, and a cortizone injection to help minimize the severe pain while tending to my daily agenda. I was ever so grateful that Dr. Knudsen agreed to both requests. We definitely need more doctors who are willing to work alongside their patients and give options.

My recent visit was for an annual follow-up after reverse shoulder replacement surgery. Dr Knudson answered several questions and gave me very good suggestions on how to take care of some minor issues. I don't have any pain with my shoulder anymore and I have pretty good range of motion.

He is very caring. He told me the exact diagnosis with my left arm. What to expect going toward with healing & physical therapy.

Dr. Knudsen was very attentive to my needs, was genuine, and determined to identify remedies for my ailments.

Dr. Knudsen is smart but also caring and genuinely NICE. Surgeons aren’t known for their bedside manners but his is excellent. I feel like he really cares and doesn’t rush me into procedures I’m not ready for. He takes the time to communicate with my PT also, which is appreciated by us both! I highly recommend him.

Dr. Knudsen is kind, compassionate, and caring. He listens and understands my concerns.

He is incredibly caring and kind. Took his time to listen and answer any questions. I feel very fortunate that he is the doctor treating my fracture. I could not ask for a finer physician.

Dr. Knudsen was very understanding of my complaints. He took the time to listen and explain everything to me. Was very patient with my memory loss and just gave me hope that I might have a life without pain! Very grateful for him and his very talented team.

Doctor Knudsen and staff were professional, on time, knowledgeable, understanding, friendly, and, most of all, with the advice and prescription, I feel much better. Excellent doctor.

I love Dr. Knudsen! He is the epitome of excellence in doctoring. He is skilled, he is kind, he is patient, he listens and explains the issue thoroughly, he offers options, he explains the risk vs. benefit of each. I had a two year old shoulder fracture. It was two years old because every doctor I saw said it couldn't be fixed. So I lived with it. Until I couldn't. The shoulder, which is a prosthesis, just separated and fell apart one day. Fortunately for me, I met Dr. Knudsen through the ER where I was treated. An auspicious day for me. He fixed it!! I am 10 weeks post-op now and I couldn't be more pleased with the result. He, and his team, are my heroes!

Listened explained thoroughly walked me though each step of treatment spoke in clear understandable language was friendly and respectful
