During Easter break in 2001 I incurred a sports injury that ruptured my left Achilles tendon. I was visiting family in Saranac Lake, NY (upstate in the Adirondacks), about 600-miles from my home in VA. A quick trip to the local ER confirmed the ruptured tendon. A call was placed to Dr. Abraham from Saranac Lake that evening and surgery was scheduled for 7AM the next morning. I drove from Saranac Lake to Albany, spent the night in Albany and reported to the surgery center promptly at 5:30AM the next morning. Dr. Abraham and his team performed the surgery w/o incident or complication. I was in a hard cast for several weeks, followed by a soft cast and rehab. At the time I did not think I would ever walk normally again. An Achilles injury can take a long time to heal and rehab, but here I am, 14-years later, running and still playing hockey as I approach my 60th birthday. I was treated with respect, care and dignity. I felt that his surgical team was committed to my procedure. The results have stood the test of time. This is the only surgery that I have had performed by Dr. Abraham, so I cannot speak to his skill with other areas of the body, but I would not hesitate to seek him as my surgeon again.
