Dr. Strauss was the second surgeon I saw after I tore my ACL. Even though I did not end up going with him for the surgery, I would still recommend him based on his great bedside manner, his approach to the surgery and recovery, and the attentiveness of everyone I interacted with on my visit.
Dr Strauss and his intern were both very personable and knowledgeable. They were also very good at sharing medical information and records.

Phenomenal surgeon, great attitude, super helpful. Anyone with a shoulder issue should go this guy.
He was great....explained everything. Very professional but made me feel comfortable.
Dr. Strauss was the second surgeon I saw after I tore my ACL. Even though I did not end up going with him for the surgery, I would still recommend him based on his great bedside manner, his approach to the surgery and recovery, and the attentiveness of everyone I interacted with on my visit.
Dr Strauss and his intern were both very personable and knowledgeable. They were also very good at sharing medical information and records.
Excellent, thorough visit.
Dr. Strauss has an extremely enthusiastic and attentive manner, and was determined to find the cause of my joint pain. Unfortunately the X-rays were not enough to get to the bottom of it, so I will see him again after my MRI. But I have complete confidence that he will successfully address the problem.
Verified patient
Such a smart, pleasant, and energetic doctor! He took the time to take me through all the details of my injury and my options (unlike my previous doctor). I felt properly taken care of. Staff and office team are very professional. I highly, highly recommend him.
