Dr Drakos is truly the best. He repaired my toe after a devastating butchered job by Dr Nick Wessling at another NYC sports surgery facility. Do not go anywhere else. Dr Drakos had me wait until I couldn’t manage with the ruined foot anymore, and then he repaired it. I’m back to pickleball and traveling and life is great

I was advised to see Dr. Drakos after I had a bad fall and broke 6 bones in my ankle. He was so knowledgeable, professional, and confident!!! Dr. Drakos and his entire staff were so caring and I felt it. I had surgery with him and he also needed to replace my cartilage in my ankle. The surgery and recovery went off without a hitch, He explained to me everything about the injury and what I can expect for the recovery. My care was top notch!

Drakos was my 2nd opinion, which if we would have discussed my MRI findings, the report, or scans - I wouldn’t be leaving this review. He was curt, basically rude, refused to listen to my concerns or what I have tried over the past 2 years and to explain why I’m here , and just wanted to write me off. Never went over my MRI. Never went over my X-rays. Never went over radiology report. Nothing. Coming to HSS, I have to tell you, I expected better Drs. Should have gone to O’Mally in NYC. I didn’t even request a follow up. I ca... read more

I saw Dr. Drakos in February regarding knee pain. After attempting to describe the pain I was having, Dr. Drakos knew exactly what I was talking about and articulated his thoughts with professionalism and self-possession. He immediately recommended, and demonstrated, exercises to do help alleviate the pain and connected me with a physical therapist the same day. It is obvious how knowledgeable and efficient Dr. Drakos is and I cannot recommend him enough. Thanks Dr. Drakos!!!

If I could give him a hundred stars I would. I took my daughter to SIX other doctors for an ankle issue before finally making my way to HSS and Dr. Drakos. He diagnosed her properly and performed a flawless surgery on her. Six weeks later, an issue she has had for close to 18 months is fixed and she is well on her way to a full recovery. His bedside manner is amazing - he instilled complete confidence in both of us that we had finally found the right doctor. The day of surgery he actually seemed excited to get this done for ... read more

Dr. Drakos was my 6th doctor I visited for my issue. REPAIR ACHILLES TENDON EXOSTECTOMY LOWER EXTREMITY; CALCANEAL. I chose him because of his staff and because he actually sat down to answer ALL of my questions. He even explained what he was actually going to do and gave me a # of how many times he had done the procedure. I never felt rushed or pressured. The day of the surgery Dr. Drakos really seemed like he was in his element. He was very happy and excited. He REALLY made me feel at ease. And the staff at the ambulatory ... read more

Did not listen - arrogant - whole team culture is punky - he’s got a chip on his shoulder that is very real. Don’t even think of seeing this guy - very surprised he’s HSS approved

Dr Drakos was kind and caring. He recommended extracorporeal shockwave therapy as an alternative to surgery to treat a very, very painful heel spur His staff was also over the top professional and thorough. I am very happy with the results How many orthopedic surgeons do you think would suggest a non surgical treatment ? Dr Drakos prescribed what was best for me not his bottom line. I think he’s a wonderful Dr and am so happy I went to him after getting 8 shots in my heel over the years. The ESWT really worked !,,,,
