Great bedside manner as he outlined the possible diagnoses and I did not feel rushed. Also the whole appointment process was efficient and I did not wait for long.

Dr Dasti performed surgery on me 7 years ago that resulted in getting me out of excruciating pain I'd been in for years along with total immobilty of my arm. I had been to so many Dr's and he was the first one who really listened and treated me appropriately. When I reinjured my shoulder again even though I had moved almost 2 hours away I knew there was no other Dr I would go to. He is so compassionate and understanding. I do need to have another surgery but I have so much going on in my life right now I was really hesitant. He took the time to explain why having the surgery now vs later is in my best interest. We had many discussions on the phone and in person. He really listens and really cares and never makes you feel like he's forcing anything on you. Everything he does is for your benefit.

All I can say is amazing and amazing. Besides being truly intuitive and caring, the staff is also caring and passionate. I don’t wanna have any more problems and issues or surgeries, but if I have to, and I need to see a ortho surgeon, I will choose Dr. Umer Dasti hands-down. Literally 24 hours after my surgery I’m not feeling any pain nor did I have the need to take the pain medication. Thank you Dr. Dasti.

Great follow up with Dr Dasti. His surgery provided me with almost 100% mobility for my right shoulder. I highly recommend him.
