"I would like to thank Dr. Eric M. Spencer and his complete staff for the splendid job they did in arranging both my carpel tunnel surgeries, first back in July 2013 for one arm and the other this August 2014. I am deeply appreciative of the attention to detail in completing all the paperwork that was necessary for my workman's compensation. The staff was very professional and made the whole process easy for me. I'm finally pain free and highly recommend the Southern Westchester Orthopedics & Sports Medicine office and group of doctors. They are 2nd to none. Thank you again!"

"Dr. Lent worked wonders for me. I had a partial knee replacement and within weeks I was up and walking without support. My physical Therapy went great. I will definitely go back to him to have my other knee replacement. Thanks Dr. Lent"
K.P.Knee Replacement
"I have been a patient of Dr. Lent's for several years now. Two years ago I had a total knee replacement done by him, and more recently a surgery on my rotator cuff. He is the most understanding doctor I have ever dealt with. Before the operation I saw him in his office where he explained the entire procedure to me. This comforted me before my surgery. I recommend him to everyone who is having problems with their knees or any other orthopedic issue. I would not be walking the way I am today if it wasn't for him. Thank you very much Dr. Lent."

Mike O.Partial Knee Replacement
"Dr. Lent came highly recommended by a friend who had the same problem as I and had the MAKOplasty surgery. My surgery was only six days ago and already I am doing very well. Although I am still using a cane part of the time, I am able to walk on my own. While my friends waited for the surgery to be over they met Dr. Lent and he was friendly, patient and informative. I had a great deal of faith that things would go well and I have even more faith in Dr. Lent now. If I should ever need further orthopedic surgery, though I hope not, I would certainly come to him."

D.S.Makoplasty Right Knee
"I had makoplasty surgery with Dr. Spencer two years ago on my left knee and everything went well.I decided to do my right knee and to my amazement it has now been 6 weeks and everything is great. I already can bend my knee more than I have in many years. Dr. Spencer is a caring and attentive doctor and I would recommend him to anyone. He also has an excellent staff supporting him and anytime I had any questions or concerns they were always quick to answer my questions. He also has an excellent physical therapy department located in his office."

When I met Dr. Lent, he explained everything in great detail and was very professional. My end result says it all...I am back to my old self and doing all the things I was un too much pain to do before. Thank you so much to Dr. Lent for giving me my life back!!"
Marion T.Partial Knee Replacement
"I had a condition where I could not straighten my fingers. Shaking hands or trying to retrieve anything from my pocket was impossible. The condition is know as Dupuytren's Contracture. It use to require surgery. In two office visits, Dr Spencer did a minor procedure which cured my situation. I was able to shake his hand and say thank you."
