I have been fortunate to have had my three surgeries ( two hips, one knee) with Dr Forlizzi. I cannot speak more highly of her expertise, kindness and sense of humor. Each experience has been positive and post op care has been phenomenal. Ortho Ct and Hartford Healthcare have some of the most user friendly and advanced pre op and post op services I have ever experienced. I always knew what to expect both before, during and after surgeries. She gets a 10+ in my book!

Dr Forlizzi was highly recommended by over 1/2 dozen people in a matter of 2 days. They all send the same thing; that she is the best, she listens, she explains everything so no one is left hanging, she has a huge heart along with honesty …. After meeting her I can only agree!
