Patient Testimonials

Update: 2nd surgery done 10 weeks after 1st hip.

Recovery was amazing and I'm thrilled.

I went hiking for my 65th Birthday. Don't put it off. Wish I did them sooner! You cannot go wrong with Dr. Dunleavy and his incredible team!

Dr. Sealey took time to listen to my foot issues and verified it with an xray.

Talked about treatment options and timing.

Very nice and professional!

Dr. Paul spent the time needed to review my case.

I found him very empathetic towards my current condition.

Dr. Paul was very thorough in explaining options. I highly recommend him.

I had my carpal tunnel surgery done by Dr. DiGiovanni a few years back.

I just want to say that he was very knowledgeable and friendly.

The surgery went very well, and the pain was gone. No complications. I have been pain-free since then. I was worried about having the surgery but he told me how it was going to go and he was true to his word. I recommend him or at least to talk to him for an opinion. No more walking around holding my arm or sleeping with it hanging off the bed. Thanks Dr. DiGiovanni!

The physician and nursing staff at the Western Connecticut Orthoepdic Surgical Center is the best that I've experienced.

The care and concern for my well-being after my rotator cuff surgery was outstanding and much appreciated!

They made me FEARLESS! I highly recommend OrthoConnecticut to anyone who wants - and expects - THE BEST OF CARE!

Dr. Lunt: Thank you for your healing touch

Dr. Lunt has the soul of an explorer and the heart of a poet. He performed surgery on my hand on 2/22 and was amazing.

I am recovering nicely and his skill and medical artistry is clear and tangible. Thank you, Dr. Lunt, for your healing touch. You embody the spirit of healing through your surgical artistry and skill. At Juilliard, when someone is a master at that level, they are called a Maestro. Thank you Maestro Dr. Lunt. I also have to say that the folks in the hand rehab area are absolutely amazing. They are caring, skilled, clear and efficient. They model what is possible in medicine when skill and caring join together to serve the patient. Stephanie, Nicole, Seda, and the whole staff are the best! More songs to come.

With gratitude and appreciation,

Dr. Viola: I met my match!

I'm an older athlete and couldn't find anyone to touch my knee. My life is built around speed and I didn't want to stop doing what I enjoy.

Finally, I met Dr. Viola and knew I had met my match. I don't even think of my knee now. I do everything with it. What Dr. Viola did was superb. He understood my passion about participating in sports. Dr. Viola is compassionate, and his caring manner is phenomenal.

Dr. Frank: Most knowledgeable and personal

I required a right Knee ACL and meniscus reconstruction which I ultimately had surgery on by Dr. Frank in September.

Dr. Frank helped me through the process both physically and mentally, keeping my well being in mind at all times. I am a avid cyclist and BMX bike rider with years of experience with other surgeons and doctors but by far Dr. Frank was the most knowledgeable and personal. He both helped and pushed me to get back to my wanted physical shape as soon as physically possible.

Dr. Frank: So professional and thorough

I had my shoulder surgery October of last year.

I could not be happier with the results. After hearing many horror stories about what to expect, I was very pleased at how smoothly things went. With in weeks I was back at the gym, although limited, but back to my old routine. I now have full use of my shoulder. I have met several other people who have had the same surgery that I had, and I have to say no one has had a better outcome than I have. This was my first surgery ever, so I was a little nervous. Dr. Frank and his staff are so professional and thorough, I had complete confidence in them right from the start.

Dr. Dunleavy: The perfect physician

He performed a total hip replacement on me last week. I've been suffering for over 10 years trying to avoid surgery and had seen 2 other surgeons prior.

Once I met Dr. Dunleavy I knew he was the perfect physician. His kindness, level of expertise and straightforward explanations gave me the confidence to move forward. I stayed one night in the joint center and was up and bearing full weight as soon as I was in my room. His secretary, Merlinda made all the arrangements and I'm now under the care of the physical therapy department. It's been a very exceptional experience and I am planning my next hip for the fall. I wish could give Dr. Dunleavy 10 stars for his care!  

Dr. Protomastro saved 46% of my left arm and hand.

Dr. Protomastro saved 46% of my left arm and hand. Maybe a third one will STOP the 24/7 little pains. I was told, I have to get used to the pains.
