“Dr. Nair performed both of my knee replacement surgeries, with the help of Ryan and the experience was excellent from start to finish. They were compassionate, knowledgeable, and took time to answer all my questions. My recovery has been better than I ever expected. I’m so grateful for the care I received

Doctor Nair and his staff are very professional and kind. They definitely made me feel like I was being taken care of and not just a number. I would not hesitate to refer them to my friends and family.

Dr Nair explained my options for my hip replacement surgery in a way that I could understand. I was not expecting to hear that I needed a hip replacement, after the shock of hearing that I appreciated his explanation of the different types of the surgery.

I want to thank Dr. Nair for the great care he took with my shoulder. My shoulder was torn in several places and he cautiously warned me of my recovery chances. Because of his skill I have made a full recovery and have full use of my shoulder. Thank you!!
