About Me
As an adult reconstruction orthopaedic surgeon, I specialize in treating conditions causing degradation of the hip and knee joints. I use a combination of various non-operative treatment methods to improve patients’ symptoms in addition to performing joint replacement surgery. My areas of interest include outpatient total joint replacement surgery, short hospital stays and rapid recovery. I perform both partial and full knee replacement surgery, and I perform hip replacement using conventional approaches as well as muscle-sparing techniques. I also specialize in examining patients with painful joint replacements performed in the past and treat problems related to infection or instability of prior joint replacements. I focus my knowledge towards developing treatment plans that are specific to each patient's diagnosis and needs. I devote undivided attention listening to patient issues and would be pleased to take care of you or your family members.

All of my experiences with Dr. Greco have been promising. He smiled when measuring how far my knee bent and when I held my left leg up straight. He reassured me that everything was progressing well. I could tell my the look on his face, that smile, that the surgery was a success.
Listens, doesn't rush you - just a great doctor!
Fantastic physician and surgeon. Listened to my problems about my knee and how it impacts my lifestyle. Offered options besides surgery but agreed with me that, given my active lifestyle, surgery was the best option. My recovery is well ahead of where I should be at the 6 weeks mark and my surgerical scar looks like it was closed by a plastic surgeon-barely noticeable.
Dr. Greco was an excellent provider. I was explain the procedure very well. I was anxious and he put me at ease. Very compassionate. Very knowledgeable.

Dr. Greco eased my fear of surgery. He is not only kind & compassionate; he is an expert in his field. He is humble, listens to concerns voiced & takes a proactive approach to prevent any potential complications. He is always approachable & willing to personalize care to meet individual needs.
His description of X-rays was very good and easy to understand made it easy for me to decide on treatment.
Very knowledgeable, thorough in explaining the surgery and expected outcomes.
In all of my 46 years, I have never experienced a more thorough, invested care team. They worked together, were responsive, worked quickly to solve problems, and were kind throughout. What a team!!!
Overall good experience. X-rays were needed just days before surgery which was inconvenient to me because they could have been ordered during pre admission testing
Dr. Greco was very courteous and professional and exhibited a great concern and interest in my continued recovery.
Experience with provider ok, seems not as much time spent as previous visit.

Dr. Greco is very conscientious and listened to me with concern and made a follow up appointment for me with his PA.
It was OK. He wants me to get another kind of test and told me where to go, but didn't give me anything written and I don't remember where and what I am supposed to do
Best surgeon ever! Great pre & post-op as well as remembering issues important to me from prior appts. Can't say enough great things about Dr. Greco & his staff and entire "operation." This appt. was my 1-yr. follow up to my hip replacement, which was a total success.
Excellent experience.
Very pleasant and thorough
I was a little intimidated at first but then felt more comfortable. I had been to a few other doctors and was trying to decide who I felt good about doing my knee replacement. My prior meniscus surgery by a different doctor only made my pain worse. Dr Greco was was also hands-on similar to the resident. I am going to follow up in few months and I asked specifically to see Dr Greco bc I want to feel comfortable about my decision. I know it's probably protocol to see PA but it's important for me to ask my questions to the doctor and decide on best course of action. This will affect my quality of life tremendouslyincluding work and physical exercise. Dr Bill Barson referred me to Dr Greco and his recommendation came highly.
Very good

I was referred by my previous surgeon, Dr. Duerr. This new provider (Dr. Nicholas Greco) didn't seem to know any of my patient history and didn't even bother to look at my information (previous treatments attempted by Duerr, previous surgeries, etc).
Care was very good.
Dr. Greco is a very gracious physician/surgeon. He answered all my questions concerning the medical elements placed in my calf & thigh since I was bone on bone. He also showed me the small space that was left in my knee to bend how much it had increase due to the surgery.i
