New York surgery listings run 519 deep, but count alone doesn't tell you who picks up. Of those, 507 have a phone number attached and 428 list a website, so most entries give you a real way to check credentials or book a call before you show up anywhere. Staten Island's 10305 zip carries 30 listings, the most of any area, with 10021 close behind at 29, so if you're near either, options sit close to home.

Paid placements are labeled Sponsored, and this category has zero right now, so scrolling this list means reading plain directory order, not a bought slot someone paid to sit at the top. Call two or three offices directly and ask about scheduling, insurance, and specialty before deciding. If you run a surgical practice in New York and your listing shows an old number or no site, you can claim it and enter current details yourself so patients don't hit a wall trying to reach you.
