Testimonials

Matthew Handling M.D.

“I had a right knee ACL surgery today (11/20/2023). This was my first surgery ever so I was really really nervous and scared. Dr. Handling team came and made sure that I was fully comfortable. Between all the nurses (especially my nurse Stephanie), the anesthesiologist, Dr Handling and the front desk lady, everyone was so awesome! I would recommend this place a million times. The place is very clean and organized. They give you and your driver updates about you (as the patient).”

Elliot Leitman M.D.

“First State and especially Dr Leitman deserve a five star rating. I started working with him about 10 years ago. Back then I was an active 70-year-old softball player. We never rushed knee replacements. Recently though I have had two successful total knee replacements with Dr Leitman. The knees are now fine. Just turned 80 and have gone back to him. And we will look at the Spine and hip situation after an MRI. I totally trust Dr Leitman and hope he will have me back on the ball field soon. I would highly recommend Dr Leitman. ”
