I came all the way from Indiana to see Dr. Stephen Yacoubian for my right shoulder. Pain limited my movements and I was miserable. Six days after Dr. Yacoubian performed arthroscopic surgery, even before starting physical therapy, I have a full range of motion, and I am practically pain-free. I am very impressed with the flow at his office. Everything is a class act, especially the respect, warmth and kindness they show patients. I was treated like a king. I am grateful to Dr. Yacoubian. His great reputation is well deserved. I'm glad I went all the way to California to see him.

Doctor Y. was very thorough and caring. He explained my diagnosis and outlined my options in a way that I could understand. I ended up with surgery and have been to the office for several follow up appointments. All have been a pleasant experience.

Having been in the medical field for over 20 years in private practice, academia, and the US Air Force, I can unequivocally state that Dr. Stephen Yacoubian is by far the BEST surgeon I have ever had the pleasure to know. It is quite evident that Dr. Yacoubian's skills and abilities place him at the top of his profession; but equally important is his quiet confidence and reassuring personality. As you can imagine the nature of my practice requires me to be flexible and mobile to treat my own patients. Dr. Yacoubian got me back to my office treating patients very quickly and with minimal discomfort. God Forbid I ever have any additional injuries but in the event I do, Dr. Stephen Yacoubian and the OSS team will be my first and only source for treatment. I cannot recommend Dr. Yacoubian and the OSS highly enough. THANK YOU DR. STEVE!

In my experience, he didn't face up to surgical misadventure. My opinion...he's a huge coward.

Dr. Steve is an amazing doctor! I hurt my left knee playing football. He took the extra time with me to explain everything... , he set me on a course of therapy and recovery that has turned my life around for the better. I had alot of questions and he took the time to answer each and every one of them. I always get the feeling from Dr. Steve that he has my best interest in mind. His staff was extremely professional and caring. I would highly recommend him!

Doctor Yacoubian spent 20 minutes fully explaining my knee problem. I thought I needed surgery, he recommended physical therapy. My knee improved, and no surgery. He's not like other surgeons who just want to cut.
