OrthoConnecticut Doctors Honored by Their Peers and Their Patients
DANBURY, CT — The physicians at OrthoConnecticut have once again been honored with some of the country’s most prestigious awards. Castle Connolly Medical, Ltd., has recognized Dr. Andrew Bazos, Dr. Michael Brand, Dr. Joseph DiGiovanni, Dr. Ross Henshaw, Dr. John G. Lunt, and Dr. Robert Yaghoubian as Top Doctors for 2017. Castle Connolly’s Top Doctors awards are given to leaders who are nominated by their peers in an extensive survey process of thousands of American physicians each year. These Top Doctors' medical educations, training, hospital appointments, disciplinary histories—and much more—are screened by the Castle Connolly physician-led research team. Only those doctors who are among the very best in their specialties and in their communities are selected for inclusion. Doctors do not and cannot pay to be included in any Castle Connolly Guide or online directory.
In more good news, 10 OrthoConnecticut physicians were also among the winners of the 2018 Vitals Patients’ Choice awards. Vitals Patients’ Choice winners are chosen according to the overall rating a doctor receives from his or her patients for the calendar year. Awards are given for Compassionate Doctor, On-Time Physician, and Patient’s Choice.

Sealey, Dr. Daniel Southern, and Dr. Robert Yaghoubian have all won Vitals Patients’ Choice awards for 2018.

Expanded Office Hours for Drs. Hermantin and Sealey
OrthoConnecticut Announces Expanded Office Hours for Dr. Frank Hermantin and Dr. Randolph Sealey in New Milford and Sharon, CT
Danbury, CT—We are happy to announce that Spine specialist Dr. Frank Hermantin is now available for patient appointments in our New Milford and Sharon offices. Beginning on Monday, February 5, 2018, Foot & Ankle specialist, Dr. Randolph Sealey will also begin seeing patients at the New Milford office. These additional office hours will complement their existing patient schedules at the practice’s Musculoskeletal Center of Excellence at 2 Riverview Drive in Danbury. The New Milford office is conveniently located at 131 Kent Rd in New Milford, and the Sharon office is centrally located in the northern part of the county at 50 Amenia Rd in Sharon.
Dr. Frank Hermantin, a fellowship-trained spinal surgeon, specializes in minimally invasive back surgery, and performs more minimally invasive discectomies and outpatient spine surgeries than any other spine surgeon in the community. The majority of his patients, however, are treated nonsurgically. Dr Hermantin believes his most important job is to help patients regain all of their normal function without pain.
Dr Randolph Sealey is the only fellowship-trained orthopedic foot and ankle subspecialist in the greater Danbury area, and his experience ranges from simple hammer toe and bunion correction to complex tendon and deformity correction (such as in severe flat feet). Dr. Sealey also specializes in the revision of failed foot and ankle procedures and in the care of arthritic ankle and foot joints. Dr. Sealey is fluent in Spanish and will gladly conduct appointments for Spanish speaking patients.
For more information, or to make an appointment with Dr. Hermantin or Dr. Sealey in their new office locations, please visit myorthoct.com or call 203.797.1500.
