“We arrived a little early and greeted quickly. We were in and out of the office in less than 45 mins of appointment time. In the time we were there we came in contact with seven different employees. All were very friendly and considerate of what we were going through. Dr. Lourie made sure we were completely aware of what the injury was and all the treatment options that were possible. Although it was evident that it was a busy day, we never felt hurried to make a decision or that our time was not significant.”

“Dr. Lourie is a six star MD! Puts patients at ease as soon as he opens the door. He's concentrated on the patient eye to eye which is lovely! He exudes patience and knowledge. He explains everything very thoroughly and does so in an easily understandable manner and never talks so fast you can’t keep up. He is very respectful of patients. He is on time and doesn’t seem rushed or in a hurry. He repeated instructions and the plan and reason was very clear. He is also very reassuring. And he has a beautiful smile he uses liberally. Six stars!”

“Dr. Lourie is such an excellent doctor. His skill is, and knowledge is at a very high level and so is his demeanor. The minute he walks in the door, he connects with the person! And everything that follows is done with continuity and care, even if he leaves the room temporarily to be with another patient.”

“I had Dr. Gary Lourie as the orthopedic surgeon who repaired damage due to a trigger finger surgery made by another doctor before in another location. He did the best he could to help me with my problem. He is a person with a lot of experience and knowledge in his field. He always treated me in a very professional way and gave me a lot of confidence in what he was doing. I would say he went the extra mile following up with my therapies. I needed the support I got from him and his staff to recover from my bad experience of the previous surgery. I highly recommend him and his team.”

“I could not have asked for a better experience! This was my “second opinion,” and it relieves me so much to have answers with information to back it up finally. Dr. Lourie was extremely personable and made sure that I was well taken care of before I left the office. What an incredible practice!”

“I had a good experience with him removing a ganglion cyst from the bottom of my pointer finger over 20 years ago. When I started having thumb problems, my first thought was to go back to him because of the great surgery he had done. With the CMC in my thumb, he said it was my choice to wait, get shots, or surgery, but he believed I was still too young and hoped the shots would help. They have, and I will continue going back to him because he wasn't pushing surgery, just caring more about how it affected me daily. The shots aren't fun, but he keeps up a good conversation with me to ease my stress.”

“I believe I have a unique connection with Dr. Lourie as he has provided care for multiple people in my family. Dr. Lourie’s assessment was instrumental in saving my father's finger. My dad felt privileged to have such a skilled surgeon and appreciated Dr. Lourie’s sense of humor. I will always be grateful for the fine care that he has provided to me and my family. If they gave an award for hand surgery, no doubt Dr. Lourie is our MVP. I appreciate the staff at Hand and Upper Extremity Center who have provided exemplary care.”

“I have been seeing Dr. Lourie for several years. I have to say he is the best Doctor I have ever seen! I wish I could give him a 10. He is so professional and thorough and takes his time to explain your injury and the solution. He and his wonderful staff treat you like family. I saw him today for bone spurs on both hands. He not only helped me with those but I asked him for his opinion on another health issue and he and the Doctor he was working with went out of their way to help me. I am truly blessed to have Dr. Lourie as my physician. I am so grateful for him and his amazing staff!”

“What I came for was to learn what my options are for treating the Dupuytren's Contraction that I have had for years in my little finger. I got not only a good explanation of the problem from the Doctor but a good explanation of my options. He explained how each option worked so I can make an informed decision when we are ready to proceed (or not). Also, I was in and out of the office in under an hour which was fit into the time for my appointment.”

“The first time I saw Dr. Lourie was as a referral. I had crushed my elbow, had surgery and then lost most of the use of my hand due to nerve involvement. Bone tissue started to form around the injury. After two surgeries and 3 months of rehab with their therapists, I have regained approximately 85% of function. What else can I say other than thank you!!!”
