I had a really good experience with Dr. Hassan, the receptionist, and the physician assistant. Everyone was friendly, patient, and helpful. I felt like I was really being heard. I was x-rayed and only had to wait maybe 20 minutes for my results. Dr. Hassan explained everything concisely and gave me a clear plan for treatment. Office was very clean and modern. Thank you, thank you!

Did no like my visit with this Doctor. He was not very interested in my injury and prescribed expensive braces that would have been cheaper if I had gotten them at CVS or Duane Reade.

Excellent
Verified patient
I was very pleased with my visit with Dr. Sheref Hassan. He was pleasant, professional and informative. He thoroughly explained the diagnosis, presented all available options and answered all of my questions, without rushing through the process.
I was clearly in pain and everyone from X-ray technician to nurse to Dr. Hassan tried their hardest to make me smile through the pain. Dr. Hassan takes his time explaining things and then makes sure you understand completely. Great visit despite the pain!
Verified patient
I was checked in immediately, but it took about 30 minutes for me to be called to take X-Rays. After that I had to wait another hour to be called in to see the doctor and another 30 minutes before the doctor actually came into the room. The nurse was cordial and professional and would pop in every 10 min or so to check on me and reassure me that the doctor would be a little while longer. When the doctor arrived he was very knowledgeable, professional, polite, and reassuring. I would see him again, but prepare myself for a longer wait. However, if I end up waiting another 2.5 hours I will likely not go back.
Professional treatment in a quality setting. RJM

Overall, Dr. Hassan was thorough.
I really enjoyed this visit as my first time. I was satisfied with Dr. Hassan treatment n taking time to explsin my issue. Not rushed at all. Definitely happy didnt mind the wait which wasnt bad.
Verified patient
I initially was working with another Orthopedist who spent practically no time with me and did not explain anything to me. Then I found Dr. Hassan and his assistant Adele who are absolutely amazing! Adele had me in stitches, super personable, puts you at ease and Dr. Hassan was patient, attentive, and basically made you feel like he was in no rush to be anywhere else. Excellent bedside manner, broke everything down for me! I would recommend these 2 again and again, thank you all so much!

Three months ago I as an out-patient had a surgery for my left hand, at Methodist Hosp. Unfortunately, postop period proved to be problematic - I'm still in pain, and the surgeon refused to admit a problem and treat it, saying - "just continue exercises". Dr. Sheref Hassan, on the other hand, was very deliberate, spent enough time to sort it out and find out which of the tendons remained affected and delivered a cortisone injection along that particular tendon. I've had, at long last, a relief.
Verified patient
There was some issue due to the fact that I had booked the appointment on Zoc Doc that was the reason behind our very long wait (they didn't know why we were there and we did not appear on his list of appointments for the day) I would suggest that if you book on Zoc Doc you follow up with a phone call and make sure they know you are coming.
Dr. Hassan diagnosed my problem, told me the options, provided an excellent brace for my ankle, and advised me on future activity. I always feel better after seeing him. Highly recommend him.
Very professional and caring.

MY INITIAL VISIT TO DR. SHEREF HASSAN'S PRACTICE WAS BEYOND GREAT, FRIENDLY, & VERY PROFESSIONAL. MY WAIT TIME WAS @ 2 MINUTES
Verified patient
Very nice staff and Dr Hassan was very helpful.
Verified patient
Loved everyone who took care of me.
I was completely satisfied with my visit with Dr. Hassan. As with any doctor emergencies arise and may cause delays. I appreciate Dr. Hassan apologizing for being behind schedule. He is great….
I had pretty good idea what was wrong but had no idea what to do about it. Dr. Hassan did a great job of explaining the problem and what to do, as well as answering my questions clearly. Also, I liked that they just took me back for an x-ray before seeing the doctor, and then the doctor saw me after seeing the x-rays. Many places would make you see the doctor, wait for x-rays, then see the doctor again, which can take a long time.
It seemed just weird to me that they decided to take X-rays just based on my self-diagnosis ("my shoulder hurts") before actually seeing the doctor: I'm not a specialist, so I might just be using the wrong terms and maybe I could have spared myself some radiations. Besides that the doctor was nice and thorough, I believe he checked whatever needed to be checked.
Verified patient
I was impressed not only with Dr. Hassan, but his entire staff. I waited less than 5 minutes in the waiting room before I was checked in, then was almost immediately taken for xrays. Then two minutes later I spoke with the nurse, and then the doctor. He didn't rush me and I feel that he made the correct diagnosis. I wish more medical offices operated with this degree of professionalism and kindness!
Verified patient
He's a very good doctor
Nice clean office, great staff and excellent bedside manner. Answered all my questions in regards to my options for my shoulder injury.
Verified patient
Actually, I was pleased with everything - a nice-looking spacy office, polite and efficient staff. The doctor was easy to communicate with. He explained to me my condition in detail, offered three different ways to treat it and agreed with my choice.
