Dr. Sama and his staff are outstanding! My elderly Mom shattered her femur and he, along with his PA, Joe were responsible for repairing her leg PERFECTLY. She has since broken her wrist and once again received caring, excellent treatment. I also see him for knee injections which have postponed surgery for almost 2 years! Dr. Sama is very efficient, knowledgeable and THE MOST CARING Dr. we've ever met! THANK YOU!

Dr Sama not only provided stellar surgery but was very knowledegable and informative prior to the surgery. He was able to alay my fears and provide me sufficent confidence to go ahead with the procedure. Since I had taken the time to get other opinons I was clear after his assement and confident that he was the best choice. I will be grateful for the rest of my life for his acumen and humanity.

I cannot speak more highly about Dr. Sama!! He is patient, kind and spends an incredible amount of time explaining what will be done. My elderly mother was 90 when she badly broke her left elbow due to a fall. It was a god-send that we were taken to Wellington Hospital and Dr. Sama became her surgeon. She had surgery done with a plate and 9 screws. Dr. Sama made sure that I was informed of every step along the way and kept my mother calm. We never once doubted that he was the best doctor to take care of her. The staff at Wellington hospital trauma ward regard Dr. Sama as an amzing doctor and boss. The staff was very attentive and caring and it was because they were treated so well by Dr. Sama and wanted to be sure that they took excellent care of his patients. If I could give Dr Sama 10 Stars, I would!! Thank you

When I broke my leg on July 4th he was the only surgeon who would operate on it. He operated orthoscopically and did and excellent job. I never had a time where he wasn't available and he put my family at ease. I would recommend him to anyone. He is the best.
