Revision Knee Replacement Surgery, Patient M.A. |
“After my first knee replacement, I experienced tremendous pain for five years. Multiple orthopedic surgeons ran a battery of tests and diagnosed a "picture perfect knee". Recently I was introduced to Dr. Shahan Yacoubian…who intuitively ordered a bone scan. The results showed a breakdown of the knee cement. His team of experts, led by Dr. Yacoubian, operated on me September of 2007, and I have been pain free for the first time in five years, no longer requiring an ice bag/pain medication or a walker. (I am) able to bend my knee over 125 degrees, and walk without a limp; I consider Dr. Yacoubian my hero.” – Patient M.A., Revision Knee Replacement Surgery performed by Dr. Shahan Yacoubian |

The experience that I had with Dr. Falkinstein was a very positive one. The care that I received was nothing short of excellent. The way in which Dr. Falkinstein dealt with my situation was incredible. Not only did he give me a good understanding of the extent of my injury, he also went into great detail in showing me the films to make sure that there was no question in my mind. On top of all of this, he was more than willing to answer any questions I had about my injury. Dr. Falkinstein was very professional, kind, courteous, and informative. Being a medical professional myself, I really appreciated the way that Dr. Falkinstein treated me. He is an excellent doctor and I will highly recommend him to those that I know.

Thumb Arthritis Surgery / Basal Joint Reconstruction, Patient P.I. |
|
“After many years of playing musical instruments and working as a flooring contractor, my right hand apparently had had enough. When I put my hand to my ear and moved it, it sounded as if I was walking on gravel. I went to my internist who gave me a cortisone shot. After several years of a debilitating arthritic hand, my internist sent me to Dr. Raven. At first, (Dr. Raven) tried conservative measures – more cortisone at the precise location; then I went to a hand therapist who made a splint to wear in the evenings. Those measures failed to relieve the pain and usefulness of my right hand. At this point, Dr. Raven suggested surgery. At first I balked; but then after a month or so, I acquiesced after realizing that I needed a change in my hand’s behavior. Therefore, on April 25, 2007, I went in for surgery. Dr. Raven, his staff and the hospital were great. After four or five months, I had marked improvement; and after seven months my strength is returning and pain is nonexistent. Dr. Raven is a dedicated and very personable surgeon who answered every question I had. He also made excellent incisions. I am very happy with the outcome of the surgery.”

Minimally Invasive Shoulder Arthroscopy Surgery / Rotator Cuff Repair, Patient S.D. |
“I was injured in a fall in my home in November of last year. This required surgery on my left shoulder to set the bone with screws. My orthopedist, Dr. Stephan V. Yacoubian, performed the surgery without incident and monitored my follow-up in an extremely professional manner. He was always available and I feel worked hard to make sure that everything progressed as should be expected. He and his staff were excellent to work with.” – Patient S.D., Minimally Invasive Shoulder Arthroscopy Surgery / Rotator Cuff Repair performed by Dr. Stephan Yacoubian |
