I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Scuderi. He was highly recommended by a PACU nurse. My knee replacement changed my life for the better. I will go back to him if my other knee wears out.

I had a meniscus tear repaired by the doctor. I have not had a day without pain since he touched my knee. I returned to him to address my continuing pain. He was dismissive and took no responsibility, He was of no help. Not a problem solver. Stay away!

Thanks to Dr. Scuderi, my life was turned around. He performed a double knee replacement due to the fact that I couldn't walk anymore. After the surgery i spent a week in rahab. Make a long story short, I was back to full activities and work inside of two months. Doctor Scuderi is second to none.

I just called to schedule my surgery and the person I spoke to was very nasty. No bed side manner at all. If I didn't need this surgery as soon as I do, I would absolutely find another dr. to go to.

Arrogance is his strongest point. At 40, a former athlete, overweight and in bad pain. He presumed too much about me as a patient. "Nothing is wrong", "I can't see any evidence of prior surgery other than your scars", "X-Rays and MRI's show nothing but it's hard to see". After a bilateral menisectomy, he found that all cartilage was torn on both knees. He was beyond apologetic only after he was proven wrong. I must say that he did great work, but he is not a sports medicine doctor as he stated because I asked about Hyaluronan or Viscosupplementation or Platelet Replacement Treatment for lost cartilage and he said I would never need it. 6 months later left knee is shot again. I have worse problems to deal with than the knee as I've had knee problems for many many years, but I only wish he was honest about not being a sports specialist. His patient base is primarily Geriatric and I wish his office was honest about that.
