Pilonidal Treatment Center of New Jersey

I'm so incredibly thankful to Dr. Schrager and his team for the success of my recent Cleft Lift surgery. Dr. Shrager is warm, knowledgable, honest, and very accessible to his patients. His office went above and beyond in terms of accommodating me and answering any questions I had during the whole process. I struggled with a pilonidal cyst for most of my 20s and was so glad to have found out about PTCNJ this year. The PTCNJ office is very clean and the staff is super friendly. It's easy to tell that Dr. Shrager loves what he does and truly enjoys helping his patients. I was fully healed and recovered within 3 weeks, even the incision site looks great! I can finally live my life without the constant burden of this awful disease. I would HIGHLY recommend PTCNJ and Dr. Shrager's expertise to anyone that is struggling with a pilonidal cyst.

Dr.Shrager was wonderful. He takes the time to explain everything. Great knowledge and evidence based solutions. His office staff is very nice and get back to you quickly. Our son's surgical experience was very good. We highly recommend Dr. Shrager for your pilonidal cysts.

My son 19 year old got diagnosed with a pilonidal Syst 3 years ago and we were referred to go see a general surgeon for surgery. That was where the nightmare began. He had the surgery and then the next 3 years were a total nightmare for him. The way the surgeon did the surgery did not fix his problem and he was constantly having drainage even having to wear a maxi pad and his underwear. We kept going back to the surgeon countless times for in office procedures that didn’t work. Being so young it really affected his Quality of life. He was the type of kid that was always in sports and always at the gym. It really began to take over his life. One night I had just had enough of this dealing with this every day things he would miss out on because he was so embarrassed he had this problem . I was just so sad watching him suffer. I started googling doctors that specialized in pineal cysts. Not knowing if that was even a thing.I was willing to go across country or whatever it took to get this fixed. It just seemed to us that it was never going to be fixable and it was going to be his way of life and I just couldn’t imagine that. Well that night I found our miracle and it was Dr. Brian Shrager and he was only 30 minutes away from us! I couldn’t believe it! I was so excited the next day to call his office and make an appointment .I was still skeptical if we are really going to find a cure for this. We got a appointment and when we met with him he was so caring, understanding,and so knowledgeable. He did an exam on my son and then he took us into his office and explained to us that he would be able to fix my son’s problem with a surgery that was called the cleft lift procedure. He had us sitting there and explained to us every detail of the surgery and how it worked and he was very confident. We both where so happy I remember leaving his office and it was like a huge weight was lifted off our shoulders and we both were so happy that we had found him and couldn’t wait for the surgery to happen. Well the surgery day came and Dr.Brian Shrager talked to us before surgery and was so professional and had such a great bedside manner. I was really nervous and because of Covid I had to leave the surgery center. Dr.Brian Shrager told me not to worry and that he would call me as soon as the procedure was done. He did just that and he explained to me the surgery went well and everything to expect in the next few days.He also told my son and I if you have any problems you could call or text me anytime and I will be happy to help you. I was so shocked that is amazing talented Doctor also had this amazing bedside manner! Seriously he is total package !That’s so hard to find! My son did wind up calling him on a Sunday he had a few questions and Dr.Brian Shrager was so nice to him and told him everything he was feeling was normal. Now it is 3 weeks post surgery as my son’s surgery site is totally healed and looks amazing! He is working out going to the gym .I’ve never seen him this happy in three years he has totally got his life back! I told Dr.Brian Shrager people need to know about him people shouldn’t ever have to live this way because of this disease. Dr.Brian Shrager is a true blessing and I will be forever grateful for all his care and his amazing surgery skills❤ufe0f

Dr. Shrager and his staff are great! I’m very happy with how the procedure went. I had severe pilonidal disease, and getting the pilonidal cleft lift procedure done with Dr. Shrager is definitely life changing. I highly recommend his service and very knowledgeable experience he has in this particular field, which is hard to find.

We are so thankful to have found Dr. Shrager. My son suffered through cysts that had to be drained prior to finding the center. He is 3 weeks post surgery and feeling well. A million thanks!
