    Confident, not arrogant. That was the first thing I noticed, and appreciated, about Dr. Alaia. I have dealt with knee injuries for 30 years and, in turn, have seen many orthopedists and have had several procedures. Dr. Alaia is by far the most empathetic doctor I have seen. He listens intently and provides options that are best for you personally, not a cookie-cutter plan. Feeling no pressure whatsoever, I opted on surgery to repair my ACL. While waiting for surgery during COVID, Dr. Alaia called to check in more than once to ensure I was still comfortable moving forward. The procedure went extremely well - I was in and out with no issues, Dr. Alaia's staff and the NYU staff were great. My recovery has been exactly what he said - so much easier than any of my past procedures, and he and his team have been available to me for any questions or concerns the whole time. Dr. Alaia, his PA, his scheduler and the entire staff are friendly, accessible, thorough, and perform amazing work. I have already recommended Dr. Alaia to some of my closest friends and would strongly encourage anyone looking to recover from an orthopedic injury to see Dr. Alaia.
