Good visit with several options provided for care.
He was very attentive and kind
The cortisone shot was not painful at all and was done so quickly that I hardly felt it! Thanks!
Dr. Costanzo is a terrific hip surgeon. He took over for my previous hip surgeon who left the practice he was working at. I would highly recommend Dr. Costanzo as a hip surgeon. I'm sure he also would be great as a knee surgeon. He is just terrific!!!!
He is a very nice and caring doctor
I am not gonna give him a bad rating because I have been previously with Rothman Orthopedic. I was with that doctor for about eight years. I’ve been living here a year and a half. He has retired as of last month. Therefore, I need a doctor for where I’m living at now not Philadelphia. They both have different styles of how they do things. My doctor was much older. This doctor is much younger so I will refrain from giving him anything less than a 10
I saw his PA (Giana). She is fantastic with answering questions and putting you at ease.
He took the time to listen to me and was patient with me and all of my questions.
Dr. Costanzo performed a re-replacement of my left knee the way and etiquette of himself and his staff is exceptional. They actually gave me a new lease on life after the first one that a different doctor did was not successful.
Very great personality tells you the way it's going to be which I love I like to know what's going to happen during and after he explains everything to you
