I went in to see Dr. Christopher Boone at Bellevue Bone and Joint Physicians (BBJP) regarding…read moreswelling in my knee which had been replaced via a total knee replacement l5 years ago. After Dr. Boone x-rayed my knee, he determined that the swelling was due to the uneven wear of the original plastic spacer, in my knee which he indicated needed to be replaced. Dr. recommended that a MRI be performed so he could "study" what the best options were. After Dr. Boone presented the options, he recommended that the plastic spacer in the original knee replacement be surgically removed and replaced as well as the removal of 3 cysts around the knee joint. The surgery performed required opening up my knee just like in the original knee placement procedure to have access to the knee prosthesis and the plastic spacer. The surgery results were excellent. Ten (10) days after the surgery, I was able to return to my Bike Spinning Classes. Dr. Boone is an outstanding Orthopedic Surgeon. I give him my highest recommendation. Lynn Caldwell 12/2017

I had a HORRIBLE experience with Dr Boone. He did my Right Total Hip Replacement in 2019. I was 6…read moremonths postpartum. I have had more pain and problems since my replacement despite his promise that "in 6 months you won't even know you had a hip replacement." I am reminded at nearly every moment of the day STILL that I had a hip replacement. He claimed my replacement was such a perfect fit that it appeared to be "made for me" exactly. He sent me down the referral gauntlet, I've had countless injections, my liver is now in crisis from the medications I have taken to try to relieve my pain, no Drs will touch his work because "he's the best of the best," it has literally been one of the most traumatic experiences of my life. I'd gone for the hip replacement because I had dysplasia, lots of arthritis, and it was locking up on me trying to carry my infant daughter down the stairs and I was terrified I'd fall with her. I had gotten the surgery hoping I'd be able to be a more active mother, but it had the opposite effect. It has taken such a toll on my mental, emotional and physical health. He only looked at an xray and spent 10 minutes with me at my consult before he decided I was "a perfect candidate for a Total Hip Replacement." I trusted him because of his reputation. With the research I've done since, I believe he should have NEVER considered putting my body through the procedure considering I was breastfeeding (up until I was wheeled to the Operating Room) AND the fact that women's bodies, especially the hip area need time to recover from Childbirth...the ligaments and structure need time to heal. I believe this is malpractice, greed and carelessness on Dr. Boone's part. I caution anyone, especially women from letting him or his robot operate on you. I think I was one of 7 robotic replacements he performed that day. It took me 3 days to leave the hospital and I was in incredible pain.

The prospect for me of making a full recovery from rotator repair was grim. I was not looking…read moreforward to surgery at all and delayed it until a further injury made waiting impossible. Dr. Sailer and Ryan were able get it done. I think even they were surprised at the result if that's even possible for such an experienced team; they do more repairs than anyone in our region and I did my research. He is a wizard. I could not be happier with the results. If I had any feedback other than praise it would be that Dr Sailer set realistic pre-op expectations about what I would experience in the first 6 months. Maybe those are derived from a larger pool of patients that receive rotator repair, but that wasn't my experience at all. Sleeping sucked for the first couple of weeks and the pain was manageable, but after that it's been smooth Sailering! If you need rotator repair don't put it off and trust Dr Sailer to get it done.

Dr. Mark Freeborn is one miracle worker. I have have 2 procedures with him and both of them were…read morealways successful and his professionalism and attention to detail makes him such an amazing surgeon. Freeborn is very very smart and so selfless. He makes sure he does his best to make you feel comfortable during the whole process from beginning to end. I came in with a severe herniation on my L2-L3 in my spine and it caused numbness/paralysis from my knee down and severe back pain. I waited about a month to see Freeborn because of insurances and the steps to take before seeing him. And the day finally came to consult with him and schedule something in then near future to get a procedure done because I wanted to get something done asap. He looks at my MRI'S and x Ray's and comes in and tells me I should of came in a lot sooner and asked me if I was free today because he would not let me leave today without a proceudre. He made calls to the ER next door and he cleared his Friday schedule for me so he could proceed to provide me with his services. I felt a huge amount of gratitude and aprriciate his consideration to do the procedure immediately. I was very happy Once surgery was done he made sure I was all good to go before sending me home. And now I am on the road to recovery. This is also my second procedure with Freeborn and both times he had made me feel comfortable about everything and assured I was going to be okay, which I was and am very satisfied. I would recommend Dr. Mark Freeborn to anyone that is need of a spinal procedures.5 stars!

This doctor operated on my neck two years and a few months ago, and the result of this operation is…read morethat now I suffer from severe pain in my neck and hands, which was not so severe before the operation. I thought the pain would get better with time, but now it hurts so much. My pain increased and my mistake was that this doctor operated on my neck. Yesterday after dealing with this pain for so long and this severe pain was disrupting my life, I went to his office to tell him. After the operation, my condition worsened, his secretary treated us badly, and the doctor came after waiting for me and my husband for an hour and ten minutes and said that I don't need surgery anymore and I should see another doctor. Of course, if I need surgery from now on, I won't come to them and I won't repeat this mistake, but they should answer right now that after all this time, my condition became much worse and finally he left. Disrespectfully left the room without saying goodbye. While he was very respectful when trying to convince me to do the surgery, I think this doctor is after money rather than caring about your treatment. I used to go to work before the surgery, but for two years. I am at home and I could not go back to work and I have mental and emotional problems. Before the surgery, I used to reduce my pain with painkillers, but now even with painkillers, my pain does not decrease and I spend every day with arm and neck pain. My advice to you is to go to this doctor if you want to have the worst surgery of your life.

I had a bicycle accident and broke my elbow really badly. I was referred to Dr. Idjadi the…read morefollowing day after the ER visit. Pre-surgery, he told me that the injury is really bad and it could be a tricky operation and perhaps after recovery I may not have the same mobility in my left hand. Post surgery, I had 7 screws and a plate. 10 days later, I visit him again, take an x-ray and see that all the bones are perfectly back in place. It was a very successful surgery. Now after 2 month, my elbow which was deemed to be pretty badly injured, healed pretty well and I gained back 95% of the original mobility. Good job on the surgery, what can I say more. =-=-= As for the doctor's attitude that the other reviewer talks about, I can only quote a famous proverb: """Give the bread dough to the baker even if he eats half of it. -- Idiomatic One of the meanings of this proverb could be... Give the job to a person who knows how to perform it best even if it will cost you much. (Translated from an Arabic proverb)""" Be patient, polite and follow the procedure. Dr. Idjadi is a good listener.

I was also late because I went to the wrong building, then the wrong floor in that building until I found I wasn't even on the correct streets. When I arrived the front desk was kind and so helpful. She put me at ease saying, "don't worry...we will take care of you. I met Dr Hall and I knew immediately I was in the right place. I apologized for being tardy and his sweet response was " oh I knew you'd get here. I've been waiting." No reprimands. How refreshing. Dr Hall was kind, knowledgeable, thorough, and I told my husband that I was sorry but I found a new love. :-) He made me that at ease with everything moving forward. There are lots and lots of Ortho doctors out there and I've had a few bad experiences. This time I got it right. Thank you Dr Hall.

In July, I had an anterior fusion surgery performed by Sean Keem. My surgery did not go as…read moreexpected and there were complications that kept me in the hospital for 14 days as opposed to the 2 that was anticipated. I'm 52 and totally understand the complications and risks with this type of surgery. I felt what could go wrong went wrong. The problem with a lot of people is they do not understand that when something goes wrong, almost all of the time it has nothing to do with the surgeon performing the procedure. Things just happen. Dr. Keem has always been professional and straight forward with me as well as the staff that works around him. I knew the risks and accepted what happened as part of that but Dr. Keem is great. I'd go to him again (this was my second procedure with him...the first being 7 years ago). The staff at the surgery center was amazing. All of them were great compared to my previous visit. I'd like to give a huge shout out to all of those who cared for me but the one that stood out the most was Morgan. She seemed so much of a real person than a robotic nurse that i had experienced with my previous surgery. She was easy to talk to and seemed relatable to my life experiences. Again...all of the nursing staff was amazing this visit but Morgan stands out the most. Thanks again.

My most recent experiences, however, show a complete lack of professionalism. My CT scans from a month ago have not been reviewed, and multiple calls to my surgeon have been ignored. Dr. Basamania has enjoyed a stellar reputation but I think his recent performance is subpar. I have been living with pain and a completely useless left shoulder since his revision surgery nine months ago. I understand that my situation might be complex, but to simply not respond to a patient is unconscionable.
