We are constantly celebrating our successes but recognize that there are always opportunities to do even better. By raising the bar and setting higher goals, we work to exceed the expectations of our patients who come to Special Surgery to receive the best musculoskeletal care in the world. "

Thomas P. Sculco, M.D., surgeon-in-chief of Hospital for Special Surgery, added, "An achievement of this nature recognizes the unique place that our staff has helped to create. Our extraordinary orthopedic surgery outcomes reflect a vital collaboration that is ongoing among our orthopedic surgeons, rheumatologists, physiatrists, radiologists, anesthesiologists, nurses and other medical professionals. We are committed to advancing the research and education needed to continually improve patient care."
