HSS once again leads the nation in orthopedic care, earning the No. 1 ranking in orthopedics for a record-setting 17th consecutive year and ranking No. 3 nationally in rheumatology by @usnews 2026-2027 Best Hospitals: Specialty Rankings©.
U.S. News evaluated nearly 4,500 hospitals in 14 specialties. Hospital performance was assessed based on various measures, including patient outcomes, level of nursing care, patient-reported experience, and available technology such as computer-assisted orthopedic surgery. The methodology factored in data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, professional organizations, and medical specialists.

This year, Doctors’ Day feels especially meaningful. After my hip replacement in December, I’m so thankful for the team that supported me every step of the way. Thank you @hspecialsurgery, @edwinsumd, and @drmjo.

MRI or X-ray? It depends on what your doctor needs to see.
At HSS, advanced imaging and specialized expertise help physicians get a clearer picture of what may be behind a patient’s symptoms. Darryl B. Sneag, MD, Vice Chair of MRI at HSS, explains how MRI provides detailed views of soft tissues while X-rays provide a clear look at bones, helping care teams evaluate everything from arthritis to soft tissue injuries.
With high-resolution imaging and expertise focused on musculoskeletal care, HSS tailors imaging to each patient and their specific clinical needs.

After surgery, the body treats it like an injury and tells you to rest and skip meals. That instinct may have helped our ancestors, but it doesn’t help patients today.
@dr.lovecchio, a spine surgeon at Hospital for Special Surgery, explains why researchers are looking for ways to help people recover faster after spine surgery, from building strength beforehand to understanding how the body responds afterward.
“Back Pain Explained,” featuring Dr. Francis Lovecchio of Hospital for Special Surgery, is now available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.

Decades of discovery. A lasting impact on lupus care.
HSS rheumatologists Mary K. Crow, MD, and Jane E. Salmon, MD, received prestigious national career honors during @acrheum Convergence 2026.
Dr. Crow received the Evelyn V. Hess Award from the Lupus Foundation of America (@lupusorg) for her contributions to understanding the causes and management of lupus. Over more than four decades at HSS, her research has identified molecular targets that became the focus of successful drug-development programs.
Dr. Salmon received the American College of Rheumatology Distinguished Basic/Translational Researcher Award. Her work has transformed understanding of pregnancy loss, cardiovascular disease and organ damage in people with lupus, and has supported better pregnancy-risk counseling and new approaches to high-risk care.
Join us in congratulating Dr. Crow and Dr. Salmon on this meaningful recognition.

Could CAR T-cell therapy help transform lupus treatment?
Led by Anca D. Askanase, MD, MPH, Chair of the Department of Medicine and Chief of the Division of Rheumatology at HSS and senior author, researchers analyzed 31 studies involving 243 people with difficult-to-treat lupus.
Among patients who began with high disease activity, the therapy led to near-complete resolution of symptoms by six months, with an encouraging safety profile.
The findings offer a broader view of this emerging therapy’s potential and support continued research into new options for people whose lupus has not responded adequately to conventional treatment.

Apparently, we are the only two people who consider a trip to the doctor’s office a DATE. 😂❤️
Most couples plan dinner, a movie, or a weekend getaway. We plan orthopedic appointments in NYC! Nothing says romance quite like X-rays, physical exams, and discussing potential surgeries. 🤣
But in our defense, we did meet for the first time when we were 10 years old… in the hospital. So maybe this is just how we’ve always done date night! ❤️
Making memories, navigating life, and keeping each other company one doctor’s appointment at a time. Wouldn’t have it any other way! @hspecialsurgery @reallybillklein

What If technology could help patients take a more active role in their recovery after knee replacement?
New HSS research led by William J. Long, MD, FRCSC, hip and knee replacement surgeon, found that patients using a smart implant and wearable-enabled digital care pathway had lower utilization of opioids, physical therapy, and skilled nursing facilities during the first 90 days after surgery.
For Dr. Long, these tools offer another way to keep patients engaged while helping clinicians monitor recovery and intervene proactively when needed.

I ran a marathon the same year I learned how to run again.
When I was learning how to walk last year, I would have never thought that this was even a possibility for me. But it was possible, and I did it 😁
I’m so grateful for my community and everyone who has supported me along the way. This has been a journey to say the least.
These thank yous aren’t close to sufficient and they will be repeated, but thank you @chelseapiersfoundation for letting me run on your behalf.
Huge thanks to @stylexstrength and @hspecialsurgery for getting this Achilles strong and healthy enough to run this thing.
And, of course, thank you to my incredible wife @maggietfraser for agreeing to let me do this, supporting me, and being a rockstar mom throughout my training. ♥️

The HSS Penny Doerge Adaptive Academy (PDAA) partnered with the Adaptive Sports Foundation at Big SNOW American Dream to give pediatric patients and their families the opportunity to experience indoor skiing and snowboarding in a supportive, adaptive environment.
With specialized equipment and expert guidance, these incredible young athletes embraced new challenges, built confidence, and discovered what is possible beyond their diagnosis.
At HSS, programs like PDAA help children and teens translate therapy goals into real-world experiences, empowering them to stay active, explore new opportunities, and thrive both on and off the slopes.
Thank you to the Adaptive Sports Foundation and Big SNOW American Dream for helping make this unforgettable day possible. ⛷️🏂💙
