What Patients Say
"A wonderful office staff, very competent medical staff, and an excellent surgeon. All contributed to the most successful knee replacement I could imagine. I would recommend Dr. Lupo for this procedure, and if I have to do another one, I plan to secure him as my orthopedic surgeon."
"Dr. Lupo performed my total hip replacement in January and I had absolutely no problems. He is a very professional and talented surgeon. He performs Mako-assisted surgery using the anterior approach. This allowed me a very quick recovery; I was only off work for 3 weeks. I definitely recommend him; you will be in good hands."
"Dr. Lupo and his entire team are exceptional. I received wonderful care from our first meeting until now and I'm sure it will continue."
"I had a total knee replacement on August 14 and, 10 weeks later, I'm feeling great. No regrets! He communicates with his patients and doesn't hesitate to answer questions."
