William Schell, MD, New York NY

Dr Schell was absolutely a pleasure to work with. I had my shoulder surgery last week and he made sure to keep me well informed about the entire process. He explained to me in great details what the procedure would entail and what to expect post surgery.

Accidents happen! I sadly, had one @ the end of July 2022. I also have an insurance plan that is substandard.

Took me days to find a shoulder specialist that accepts my insurance, and voila, Dr. Schell’s practice did. Beyond grateful. I made the right decision. Researched many.

His bed-side manner is outstanding. He explained all my options with patience, knowledge and truthfulness. Listened and answered all my questions. I ask a lot of questions, everyone should, which immediately put me at ease.

He also rearranged his entire schedule to get me into the OR quickly. Gratitude. My shoulder had to be replaced. Ouch!

It’s been 4-weeks post-surgery. My motor skills are coming back w/ ease. Today, @ PT hit 90 degrees. The pain has substantially decreased. Unimaginable progress!

I cannot believe how quickly I recovered. The answer is obvious, Dr. Schell is one of the best shoulder specialists, hands down. So is his staff/team. My body & experience speak volumes.

Thank you for keeping your "oath", fitting me into your busy schedule, surgical alchemy and for taking my insurance.

I'll be dancing salsa in a matter of months.cha cha cha. #opa

PS: photo is 5 days post op.

Dr. Schell and his staff are excellent. Had complicated Meniscus tear surgery on a Friday and was back on the elliptical in a week. I highly recommend him!

Dr. Schell puts you at ease from the minute he walks in the room. I like how he makes sure you understands all your options right from the beginning.

I came to see Dr. Schell because of pain in my knee that he had operated on previously. He gave me a precise diagnosis in clear and understandable language for the nonprofessional. I also received a clear plan of treatment that is easy to follow.

Always prompt and very good explanation of the medical needs and good assessment of the physicals condition.
Great Doctor.

Dr. Schell is a superb orthopedist with extraordinary expertise. He has a relaxed, easy manner and wonderful diagnostic ability. He sees each patient as a whole person, not just a medical condition. He takes whatever time is necessary to explain complex issues in a way that is clear and easy to understand. He is a remarkable doctor who has helped me through some serious problems, and I recommend him highly.

Dr. Schell is extremely knowledgeable and very personal and encouraging! Would recommend him to anyone who needs and Orthopedic Specialist!

Dr Schell spent time with me so I could understand the types of possibilities he would provide for shoulder replacement. He made me feel confident in his abilities.

Dr Schell is very nice, patient, he takes all the time in the world to explain and answer all questions. I felt very confident that he is giving me the best treatment to my broken ankle.thanks so much

Dr. Schell was wonderful, he explained everything in detail and wanted to try all possible treatment first before recommending surgery. Great dr!

My name is Arthur Dennis Williams and Dr. Schell took the time to thoroughly explain the possible reasons for my shoulder discomfort and potential remedies. He made it easier for me to form a decision about treatment - which included a printed therapy regimen.

Dr Schell is extremely knowledgeable. He examined my knee, nailed the issue and we looked at my X-Rays. He kindly explained everything to me, what exactly I’m dealing with and all my options moving forward. He showed me how to sit in a chair so getting up is no longer excruciatingly painful. He gave me a prescription for PT and a sheet with 9 knee exercises I can do safely myself and I definitely felt better after doing them slowly and carefully on my own first time. I was thrilled. In fact it was night and day. I iced after for a bit. Then walked my dog! Dr. Schell also gave me a prescription for an anti-inflammatory that has after only two days reduced and changed the pain considerably. I have felt empowered to help myself since I left there. Thank you Dr. Schell. Very grateful.

Dr. Schell is a wonderful, caring doctor and great health practitioner. His practice is conveniently located and efficiently run.

William Schell is a thoughtful, kind and considerate doctor. He listens to patients' concerns, he takes the time to answer questions and he takes the time to explain what's going on. I highly recommend him. And by the way Dr. Schell was able to help me with my elbow trouble (I needed surgery) when Dr. Baruch Toledano, did not.

I thought everyone was very respectful an nice. Enjoyed the Drs manners, very joyful. I wish we could have talked a little more, I was a little nervous so didn’t get to ask some questions.

Great doctor in well-managed office. I’m always brought back within 10 minutes of my appointment. The doctor was knowledgeable, diagnosed my issue and implement a treatment. Very pleased

Dr. Schell has helped me so much with my various sports injuries. He explains everything clearly, answers questions, is totally compassionate and makes me better!

Dr. Schell really went above and beyond for me. He was careful to explain anything I didn’t understand about my injury and he helped me figure out what the time frame for recovery would look like. I was seen only moments from the time I walked in the door. Even the attendants were fantastic. They always knocked before entering the room, provided me with all of the information by print out (as requested) and helped me set my next appointment. I couldn’t have had a better experience. 10/10 recommend!
