  • If you have a sports injury or any serious injury for that matter, Dr. Alaia is the right guy for you. It's been over a year since my multi-ligament knee injury and my knee is feeling better than before! Dr. Alaia is super knowledgeable and can diagnose your condition within minutes. Before going th...
  • Dr. Alaia and his staff are the best! As well as Andre! They took care of my like family would. I've had 5 prior knee surgeries (acl and meniscus) and was looking for a new surgeon and the best I could get. And I definitely found it! Would rate 100 stars if I could. Best surgeon and staff ever! So f...
  • I met Dr. Alaia in July of 2021 after being referred to his office in New Hyde Park. My first appointment with him he went over my MRI and the severity of my knee injury (PCL tear, meniscus) and laid out my options. He explained both non surgical and surgical avenues that we could take and the likel...
  • Confident, not arrogant. That was the first thing I noticed, and appreciated, about Dr. Alaia. I have dealt with knee injuries for 30 years and, in turn, have seen many orthopedists and have had several procedures. Dr. Alaia is by far the most empathetic doctor I have seen. He listens intently an...
  • Very attentive and welcoming staff. I tore my ACL, LCL MCL and PCL along with my meniscus, tendons and displaced my patella. I also had surgery on my shoulder. Dr. Alaia was very patient and detailed with me. Although there was a language barrier because my" English isn't very good, Dr. Alaia made s...
  • Dr Alaia is literally my saving grace. I'll start off by saying aside from his incredible expertise, He is genuinely one of the NICEST people I have ever met. He is so passionate about getting his patients back to feeling like their normal selves. He cares so much. I tore my ACL about 3.5 years ago,...
  • Dr. Alaia is the best. I was having intense knee pain and swelling for about a month since working out, but intermittently for about 5 years. I was doing physical therapy, acupuncture, taking pain medication and using heat/ice but the pain always came back. I met with Dr. Alaia, and once my MRI was ...
  • I am 46 year old personal trainer and group fitness instructor in NYC for over 15+ years. When my right knee started to give me serious trouble, I did extensive research and saw a few doctors before I was introduced to Dr. Alaia. After exhausting all other non-surgical methods, I had a partial knee ...
  • Dr. Alaia and his team are really the best out there. My son had surgery on his knee after a first surgery with a different doctor was not successful. After physical therapy he was still in pain and unable to resume regular activities without pain. Dr. Alaia helped us through it and was very patient...

    I had an ACL reconstruction surgery with Dr Alaia in August 2019. At 57, this was my first surgery so i was nervous because I didn't know what to expect. He was the second surgeon I saw as the first one wasn't keen on my choice of having surgery. Since I am very active - swim every day and like to t...
