Ive been going to this place for the last 2 yrs for my knees ,my shoulder,and my spine.The girls up front have always been very kind and helpful,one time i needed to take an xray out of office and the didnt charge me the 20 bucks it cost for that. Dr kayvanfar is a bit of a challenge, but once you get used to his personality it flows very smooth, he ask questions in and out about the body part in question and makes sure surgery is a last resort before it happens....

The receptionists were very rude and lazy. They didn't have my MRI report so they bothered me for the phone number. The wait was very long, about 1 and a half hour with an appointment. It was very unprofessional and unpleasant. In addition, a referral that could have been made in one week, took one month. I would not recommend anyone. In addition, the doctor was very lazy and kept on insisting to do his procedure instead of providing a list of options. Worst experience ever. Beware most of his 5 star reviews are bought.

DO NOT GO HERE!!! The doctor does NOT listen to your concerns and in my opinion, misdiagnoses you. I waited two hours to be seen, once I checked in. The receptionists seem like really nasty individuals and one of the scorned me for cancelling my second appointment (do you blame me). I do not trust this place and found another orthopedic doctor that I can trust. This facility also incorporates a physical therapy practice, located in the same area. I was told to do physical therapy (which I have done in the past with another doctor, but to no avail). It is my opinion that this places recommends physical therapy for everyone, in order to get more money from the insurance carriers. STAY AWAY! They are not about helping you recover, but milking the system!

Asks a lot of questions about all body parts. Does examines you head to toe. Talks about diet. Do x-ray and blood test.Make a real Dagnosis and get you well.
