Dr. Cushman connected right away and with the help of Nic Nakagama got me scheduled. What an impressive team and process as I was in a room and with knee images in no time at all. The healthy looking knee images were very comforting to the aging me! Dr. Cushman saw me, and was able to quickly ultrasound my IT band and quad tendons. Bottom line is nothing structural, appears to be all functional. So, Dr. Cushman worked to get me into PT the next day.

I should have been nervous, going in as I was for a knee injection. But I wasn't nervous, and I wasn't nervous because Dr. Cushman is a spectacularly kind and gentle practitioner. I knew he would make the injection painless and that is exactly what he did. Trust your joints to this physician.

I have been shuffled around from Doctor to Doctor for the past year and he is the first one to take the time to figure out the problem and not treat me like I'm crazy. I really liked Dr Cushman. He was amazing. I would recommend him to anyone. He could not have been nicer or more accommodating. He sent on my referral and even made sure to tell me to reach out if I had any issues with the Neuro dept. He went above and beyond in taking care of me during my visit. He was absolutely amazing.

Jul 12, 2023
ORTHOPAEDICS CENTER

After two failed surgeries on my foot and ankle that damaged my nerve and caused my leg to atrophy up to my knee, Dr. Cushman and a team of surgeons from the foot and ankle department repaired what one doctor told me was the worst foot they had ever seen. I had nerve damage repaired, a tendon cut, and a ligament removed. Dr. Cushman most recently performed a nerve hydro dissection that has been causing me incredible pain in my heal for quite some time. I can tell that it has improved greatly, although I have not finished out the recovery time. I have finally gotten relief from a painful nerve on the bottom of my heal. I am so grateful that he was willing to try one more thing.

Jul 04, 2023
ORTHOPAEDICS CENTER

Dr. Cushman is a marvel. I am the kind of patient who asks a hundred questions. That's partly out of nerves. But it also reflects my faith in this physician's empathy and skill. I know he wants me to understand where his treatment logic is heading; he wants me to be fully informed. He clearly enjoys explaining what's happening with the needles, with the antiseptics, with the ultrasound scanner, and with the meds. And I am as curious as can be about all those things. I have some difficult decisions to make about continued therapy for a painful, wacky knee joint. He and I had a genuinely informative *two-way* conversation about several treatment strategies. How rare is that? Oh, and his technical skills (think: poking long needles into very touchy joints) is superb. Essentially painless, because he takes the time to inject with care and planning.

Dan is genuinely the best doctor I've ever worked with. I've suffered for years of chronic pain and when EVERY other doctor would just pass me around or order pills, Dr. Cushman has spent time, research and done everything in his capacity to help me. And he has! He is the only doctor to give not just relief, but true function of my neck and arm again. Not to mention, he's also really helped my knee pain as well. Dan is incredibly empathetic and friendly, answers all my questions. I recommend him to everyone I can.
