I found Dr Rus to be extremely competent. He went the extra mile to show me my MRI Images and explain everything to me in a way I could understand. His demeanor was pleasant and friendly.

Dr Safarov has done an excellent job with my shoulder. I had a reverse shoulder replacement done 3 years ago and have had no problems at all.

EXCELLENT Surgeon. Explains everything including why you require surgery, what to expect post-op, and any complications that can possibly happen and what to do if any are experienced. He doesn't just go in and do what he thinks must be done, he actually checks the surrounding area to make sure nothing was missed. He also explains everything clearly in layman's terms and actually listens to his patients and answers all questions and addresses all concerns.
I've had a LOT of surgeries in Fla. and NEVER had a surgeon as good as he is.
I highly recommend Dr Safarov AND have also suggested to my friends and neighbors to go see him for orthopedic problems.
10++ STARS FOR DR. SAFAROV 👍👍
