Thanks, Healthnetwork, for making the connection and taking away the worries and “what ifs.”

I was a professional dancer for years, logging 500 or more kicks per practice and performance. So, it was no surprise when I was diagnosed with arthritis in both my ankles. Healthnetwork has been so helpful in finding the best resources for my family. I knew I could trust them with my health concern.

One call to Healthnetwork started a connection to a world-renowned foot and ankle surgeon at the Hospital for Special Surgery, Jonathan Deland, M.D.  The team within Hospital for Special Surgery was fantastic. The Healthnetwork liaison, Roberta, was attentive and made sure I had everything I needed for my appointment. Her concern for my well-being was very apparent and she made a point to meet me and take me to my appointment where I was seen without waiting.

Dr. Deland reviewed my medical records and after a very thorough exam he presented me with several options. Together we came up with a treatment plan that works for both of us. I take great comfort in knowing that I saw a noted expert with such a strong reputation. Now I know I have seen the best of the best and I can trust his recommendation.
