Hi – I’m Doctor Steven Luster, orthopaedic surgeon specializing in Sports Medicine associated with Connecticut Orthopaedics. I think orthopaedic surgery is a great field. It is very rewarding. It is terrific to be able to help patients – help them heal, help them return to the activities that they desire. I live and work in the same community. To me that’s very satisfying. I see patients all the time that I know. And it’s just been a great career and a great life for me. I would like the patients to feel that they were heard, feel that they gotten excellent care, feel that they have gotten better from my care. And the most flattering thing is having people come back and see you again.
