Dear
Doctor Siegel:
I just wanted to write and say thank you to you, Maria and all
your office staff for taking such great care of my mother during
her office visit earlier this week. My parents returned from the
appointment feeling that they had received such warm care and
attention. While it is disappointing that my mother has apparently
developed a significant rotator cuff tear, at least she knows
now what is wrong and can engage in some some PT to address it.
Thank you again and please send my thanks and greetings to Maria!

Dear
Doctor Siegel:
Congratulations to Josh for the recognition he so richly deserves.
Following his recommendations, I recently had bi-lateral total
knee replacement. My rehabilatation was more successful than anticipated
and I was back playing golf within five weeks. Again, congrats
to Josh and thanks for his accurate diagnosis and thoughtful recommendations.

Dear
Dr. Siegel:
I simply wanted to thank you, your colleagues and your staff for
your time and kindness during my visit to Access Sports Medicine
and Orthopaedics.
You have
a tremendous facility - one that is obviously very focused on
and attentive to the community and your patients, but one which
strives to bring superior advancements and medical care to the
area. It is an office about which you and your staff should be
proud, and that pride shows through from everyone there.
Once
again, thanks to you and your staff for making me feel so welcome.

Dear
Doctor Bruno:
I was first referred to you by Access because at the time you
worked out of New England Medical Center. I was told you were
the only hope of me being able to have any significant use of
my right hand, and that the treatment I would receive there would
be "the best there is..." Thanks to your surgery, I
was able to retain use of that hand. Shortly after, I began playing
the guitar (mostly because of your encouragement) and surprisingly,
it has been very successful for me.
Since
then you have moved up here to join Access, and the ongoing treatment
(and therapy) I've received there is the only reason I am able
to continue to play (8 years later). It's been a long road for
me and I have seen more than 4 dozen specialists (for other injuries)
and many of them have also been touted as the best in their fieds...
I wouldn't pretend to know enough to make that comparison, but
based on my experience, I can say that it has never been more
obvious to me that the care I've received from you and Access
is the best there is...
Dear
Doctor Bruno:
I want to thank you for fixing my hand or should I say you are
a great doctor and a fun person as well thank you for your kindness
.

Dear
Doctor Bruno:
I'm Luke H, your patient for Biceps Tendon Rupture, Distal, surgical
repair on 9-15-08. I'm the one that was on the sailboat in Portsmouth
harbor. We were heading south to Virginia when I overdid it and
injured myself. Your guidance was that, after the operation, all
I could do on a boat was to sit around and drink tropical drinks
with little umbrellas in them. Well, we didn't have any umbrellas,
but, per your admonitions, did get another person to help us get
the boat back.
We did indeed get back - as evidenced by the attached picture.
We left Portsmouth on 10-2, and arrived in Deltaville VA on 10-12
- with mostly dawn to near dusk days of sailing/motoring. In my
non professional opinion, the arm repair has survived well, and
healing is progressing.
Thanks
so much for the fine work and the quick response to take me into
your busy schedule. I really appreciate all that you, Dr Couture
and the fine folks at Access have done for me. I believe I was
very fortunate to have had your expertise and the very professional
Access Sports Medicine and Orthopaedics organization available
in my time of need. I wish you and the Access group much success
going forward. Thanks for all that you did for me.

"We are enclosing 2 photos of Bob driving his 6-dog sled
team this winter. It is thanks to you and his new hip that he
was able to do so, and to have such a successful season. We have
seen your newsletter and the articles about some of the sports
figures you have treated. We bet this is the first dog-sled driver
you have ever rehabilitated!!! Many, many thanks for making it
possible for us to continue our life-long passion – being in the
out-of-doors with our dogs."

Dr.
Siegel:
"I am writing to thank you for the excellent care you rendered
during my recent bout with my frozen shoulder. Although it was
a lengthy process, I always felt that you had my best interest
at heart and I always valued your opinion and knowledge regarding
my condition. I will forever be thankful to you for your services
and care.
I also
wanted you to know that the ENTIRE STAFF at Access Sports Medicine,
Access Rehabilitation and Northeast Surgical Care are terrific
to deal with! The staff members at all of these facilities were
never anything but professional, kind and very caring. Throughout
the process of getting the use of my arm back, I had nothing but
pleasurable experiences when dealing with all of these facilities
and their individual staff members (if you can consider physical
therapy and surgery pleasurable).
Thank
you again D. Siegel for helping me get through the last year with
my shoulder. I can assure you that should I ever require orthopedic
care again, I will return to your organizations knowing I will
get the best care available!"
Suzanne
Dr.
Siegel:
"I wanted to let you know how impressed I was with you and
your staff. Everyone was professional, courteous, friendly and
very caring. And my shoulder is doing great, too! Thank you and
your staff for making my time with you so pleasant."
Leslie
Dr.
Siegel:
"Thank you for fixing my shoulder and being a good doctor.
You have restored my faith in the medical profession. You take
the time to listen and talk to your patients."
Deborah
Dr.
Siegel:
"I'd like to thank you for all the new opportunities you
made possible when you fixed my shoulder. I'd also like to thank
you for making it possible for me to continue to take part in
all of the sports I love so much."
Cassandra
Dr.
Siegel:
"Thank you very much for taking such good care of my mother-in-law.
She is really grateful and free of pain now."
Nina
Dr.
Siegel:
"Just wanted you to know that my shoulder feels great! I
have had no problems for the last 2 months. I just returned from
a week of wet, damp camping along with several kayaking trips
and have not experienced the slightest bit of pain. Thanks for
giving me back my mobility."
Donna
Dr.
Siegel:
"I want to extend my sincere appreciation for your kindness
and professionalism during the past year. Words alone are insufficient
to describe the highest level of care and commitment that any
patient could ever expect to receive."
Richard
Dr.
Siegel:
"A belated note of thanks for your expert surgery on my shoulder.
I couldn't be more pleased with the results. It's wonderful to
be able to do things, work related or otherwise, pain-free. The
accolades you’ve been accorded for your work are greatly deserved
and I would like to add mine to what I am sure is a long list."
Roger
Dr.
Bruno:
Thank you so much for doing such a fantastic job treating me after
my automobile accident. It was reassuring to know I was being
taken care of by one of the best orthopaedic surgeons. You're
the kind of doctor who treats the person as well as the patient.

Dear
Karen (Kay) and Josh (Dr Siegel):
This is a long overdue thank you for the incredible difference
you have made in my life! When I came to see Josh(Dr Siegel) months
ago, I hadn't been able to run for months, had been diagnosed
by a non-Access doctor with a bone spur and split ankle tendon,
and had been told I had to have ankle surgery in order to ever
be able to run again. I was in an ankle brace that I had been
wearing for a few months, just so I could walk fast, hike and
bike. I had pretty much given up on my favorite past time (running)
because I hated thinking of surgery.
I
came to Josh(Dr Siegel) for a second opinion, and he asked the
right questions: what were my long term athletic goals? Did I
want to run marathons and lots of races every year, or did I just
want to be able to get back to casual running a few days a week
with an occasional 5 K? That was all I wanted--just to be able
to get back to the sport I had been addicted to for 30 years (which
had evidently destroyed my ankles and knees). He said: you do
NOT need surgery as it would keep me from running for several
more months. He said I needed KAREN! (Karen Kay, Access Acceleration)
Karen(Kay),
you did your incredible magic--made me use two huge muscles (rear
end!) that I had evidently not been using for years. You somehow
discovered that I had been putting all my weight on my knees and
ankles; you taught me how to walk again, and then to run. I had
to stop coming to you long before I was "ready" because
I was going to be out of the country for a month. But I actually
kept up with the program, every day! And I was happily jogging
lightly on the beach in Puerto Rico in February. And as of today,
I have started training for a triathlon (the mini kind--only a
3 mile run) which is in late July. I only run or jog when it doesn't
hurt, I use the butt muscles ALL the time now, hiking, biking,
walking..not just running. (and, as an added value side benefit:
I have more tone in my butt and upper legs than I have since I
was 30!).
I
turn 60 July 6, and I will happily be swimming, biking, and yes
RUNNING, for years to come.
I
do need to come back for more help, and need to see you for some
inspiration in upper body weight training, but I just wanted to
say a sincere and long overdue thank you.
With
tons of gratitude, ML
Portsmouth,
NH
