What Our Patients Are Saying
My husband had surgery with Dr. McHugh in November. He had a very complicated 8 level fusion and Dr. McHugh took away pain and limitations he has been living with for years. The revision surgery from a 20 year old fusion has had results my husband is thrilled with. Thank you to the whole team for unparalleled care!!

I cannot say enough positive things about Dr. Mchugh and his team. They quite literally saved my life. I had been to endless drs for years with no solution. I had cervical spinal fusion and the results are better than I had hoped for. I finally have my life back! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Dr. P. really is a wonderful physician. Saw me through my emergency neck surgery, gave me wonderful care and never makes me feel like she’s in a rush. So grateful that I was sent to her.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Pendleton since 2021. She diagnosed and treated my bulging disc with surgery, and her bedside manner is the best. I trust her completely, especially as I’ll need spinal fusion in the future. I’m thrilled she’s staying on Long Island and highly recommend her for anyone needing care.

Dr. Kakoulides is amazing! After a car accident and months of no answers, he took the time to listen and thoroughly explain my condition. He ordered additional tests to be certain. I left with clear answers and a treatment plan. Grateful for his expertise and care!
