Dr. Kenneth Egol, MD

Kept me waiting over an hour. He thought p.t. would be helpful, but never did the required paperwork. He wasn't paying careful attention and got facts wrong on his report - including my date of accident. His report was mostly copied from the ER report.

Special care and amazing doctor

My mother fractured her femur and had surgery by Dr. Egol. When we went back to him a month later for follow up, the xrays showed dislodged pins in her leg. One leg was also almost two inches shorter than the other. He said it was "bad luck" and didnt know how the pins dislodged. That she would never walk again and she was likely in pain. He said the surgery to correct it was very complex and didnt advise it. I did find an excellent surgeon at a different hospital who performed the surgery and she is walking today and her leg is now even with the other.

Very attentive and knowledgeable! Ten stars!

Dr. Egol operated on my sister, Patricia, who needed hip surgery. He was kind, compassionate and straight forward. During Patricia's hospital stay, I called Dr. Egol when she was having painful muscle spasms and he came right to the hospital to help her (on a Sunday, no less). His office visits are not rushed and he takes considerable time to make sure all your questions are addressed. He is a fine gentleman and caring physician. I highly recomend him!

He took the hardware out of my knee and I recovered quickly and well. He's great. He answered questions patiently, and visits were always timely. I highly recommend him.

Dr Egol. Is A very caring and compassionate Doctor. He will take as much time, as needed to answer any question You shall have. He is an excellent Surgeon.

Dr. Egol performed surgery on the neck of my femur after I fell fifteen feet sideways onto concrete. I thank God that this doctor was working at the hospital I was taken to. I was told I would need acute live-in rehab, and may never run/walk the same again, if it did not heal properly. Again, I thank God. After a week, I was getting around with crutches. I never had a problem until recently developing rheumatoid arthritis and systemic auto-immune inflammatory issues, which is not the fault of the surgery. I can’t tell you how many people I have encountered over the years with hip and knee and femur surgeries who could never run again. I ran for years. Never a problem. He performed as fine a surgery as one could hope for. This doctor is DEFINITELY the one you want for your your loved one’s surgery. I would trust no one else for orthopedic surgery. He is no nonsense and one heck of a surgeon.

Dr Egol has been my orthopedist since 2014 when I wound up in the ER at NYU because of a bad fall in which I broke my left hip. Thanks to Dr Egol's immediate surgery, I was up and in PT 48 hrs later and walking within 2 weeks. Since then he has treated me for a broken arm and again, made miracles happen; Dr Egol is the only person I trust with my body. The staff and PAs are also wonderful and kind.

So incredibly nice and caring. Great surgeon. I have aN excruciating non curable eye disease and asked about it.. I’m still going through allot of pain as the surgery was April,27th 2020. Broke my elbow in 2 places during the Covid19 epidemic. The screws are gross but normal. Dr. Egol said in approximately 9 months he can take the metal out. You can see them. UGH ??. ITS NORMAL.. This is an A+ surgeon and so nice! He cares!

My husband, a RBK amputee, broke his same, previously amputated leg, skateboarding during covid. Dr Egol's team responding quickly, with care, thoughtfulness, a clear strategy, and, thankfully, a bit of humor (only after we started the jokes...we needed it!). Operating on a previously amputated bone is not easy. Getting surgery during covid is stressful. Egol + his team has made themselves very available during the recovery over telemedicine visits and emails. We never felt rushed. We are so very grateful. I hope we don't have a need to see him for any more surgeries, but if we do, we will go into with confidence.

Everyone should ignore the comments of Ellen Isralsky. This woman suffers from the mental disorder munchausen syndrome her entire life. She has made a career of feigning illness & complaining about Doctors. I am sure Dr Egol is a fine Doctor based on the other comments I have read on line. The Dr.'s office is quite correct, she is an angry woman. jay isralsky

A recent fall onto concrete (elbow meet concrete please) had me into emergency surgery over the next weekend with Dr. Kenneth Egol. Dr. Egol was recommended by a physician of mine and we were assured that he was THE BEST. They were not kidding; Dr. Engol is an amazing surgeon, a funny and warm doctor and a kind man. Hopefully I will never need his services again, but if I ever do need a "bone doc" I will know who to contact. Dr. Engol is just that good. Thank you.

TERRIBLE TERRIBLE TERRIBLE doctor did hip surgery for me but neglected to make the left leg where he did surgery the SAME LENGTH AS THE RIGHT LEG. THIS WONDERFUL DOCTOR MADE ME HANDICAPPED FOR LIFE. I WALK WITH A CANE AND FUNCTION LIKE A TABLE WITH THREE LEGS. WHEN I BROUGHT IT TO HIS ATTENTION HE SAID I WAS AN ANGRY WOMAN. WOULD YOU BE ANGRY!

I have condition call blounts disease , I been in a lot of pain & went to see Dr . Egol . He perform a osteotomy on my left leg & gave me most of my length back , because my left leg was shorter than the right . He did a amazing job , thank you Dr . Egol . I will definitely recommend you to anybody.

I was in a car accident in 2009 and was taken to Jamaica Hospital where I met Dr. Egol. Had broken bones in my knee. Dr. Egol performed surgery on my leg and had to put a plate in. He did a great job with me. Everyone says how beautiful the job was done even the minimal scarring.

Fantastic doctor. Took the time and effort to make sure I received the best possible care

Dr. Egol is wonderful!

Dr Egol is great
