Dr. Widmann is an exceptional pediatric orthopedic surgeon! He performed spinal fusion for my son, with kyphosis, in July. My son is having a smooth recovery and hitting all the milestones as outlined by Dr. Widmann.

Dr. Widmann saw my son every day when he was in the hospital recovering. He walked into the Hospital room and immediately sat down which eliminated any intimidation and communication barriers. He took the time answered all questions, from me and my son, to put our minds at ease. He has an excellent bedside manner!

Thank you Dr. Widmann for your care, compassion and engagement!

I am so thankful to have found Dr Widmann. My daughter had surgery for her scoliosis at HSS and we could not be happier with the result! We previously went to another hospital system when she was younger and her degree of curvature was considerably less, and the doctor pushed us to choose surgery as our only option even when we were still on the fence about it. That doctor made me feel very jaded and I was at a loss how to find another doctor that I could trust. Fast forward a few years and most everyone I asked referred me to HSS. Dr Widmann is a giant of a man with a heart to match! He was very detailed in his analysis and even told us that there was no rush and my daughter could still wait many years before surgery! He was not about making false diagnoses and scaring us into having surgery ASAP. He addressed all of our concerns throughly, we continued going in for periodical evaluations and when the time felt right for my daughter to have her surgery, that’s when we did it. My daughter is now a thriving and confident young woman thanks to Dr Widmann! She is studying health sciences in college and hoping to make an impact one day on someone else’s health. Thank you so much Dr. Widmann!

My daughter was 16 and her curvature was over 100 degrees. Dr. Widmann operated on her and reduced the curvature down to 50 degrees. Great result! During every visit, he answered every question, and each one of his staff communicated with us professionally and efficiently. There is barely any wait time, all phone calls were returned within a couple of hours. All our concerns were addressed and responded. Thank you Dr. Widmann, and his office staff, and the HSS nurse team!!

Dr. Widmann is AMAZING! My son had a 70 degree curvature in his spine and Dr. Widmann was able to correct it to 0 degree curvature, which is not typical in patients with PWS. I am so thankful for Dr. Widmann changing my son's life! He was so through and kind when dealing with our son and family.

Dr. Widman had been following my son since he was 11 for scoliosis. We finally had surgery when he turned 13 on 12/1/2020. He is an amazing surgeon, with a very good bed side manner. He put my son at ease. I would not have have anyone else perform surgery on him. He is world class and I would recommend him to anyone whose child needs spine surgery.

Dr Widmann performed spinal fusion surgery on my son in May for Kyphosis. He is a wonderful surgeon with an excellent bedside manner. He makes you feel comfortable right from the start and answers all of your questions. HSS is an amazing hospital and all of the staff there were top notch. We had a very positive experience and would highly recommend Dr Widmann.

Dr. Widmann and his staff are excellent. We received great pre-operative care, a successful surgery and post-surgical followup. The office runs very smoothly - including reception, radiology, medical staff and scheduling support.

My son needed a spinal fusion and had neurological scoliosis (fast moving). We went to Dr. Widmann and were very happy with his knowledge and warm personality (you usually don't get both). His staff was wonderful to work with as well. I highly recommend.

We were very lucky to be able to have Dr. Widmann & his staff care for our daughter with her acute scoliosis. She had 8 procedures and even though each procedure was very stressful for us as a family, it was comforting to know she was with such a great team. Excellent orthopedic surgeon & staff is extremely helpful in all aspects.
