He is always looking out for my best interest that will keep me walking with the least pain possible. He has never pushed any kind of treatment plan on me and always tells me the pros and cons of treatment he recommends. Very good bed side manor also. I love the orthopedics at NGPG! Can't think of a negative thing to say!

I was confused at times, but that was my problem. Dr. Sharif would direct me back in the direction I needed to go in answering his questions. I know I can call the office if I have other questions or concerns.

Overall, a wonderful experience with both providers. Dr. and Dr. Sharif. I cannot say enough good things about the level of care I have received. I am very pleased with communication and follow up. I had a death in my family causing me to change my pre-op visit. Everyone was super helpful and accommodating. Like I stated earlier, I cannot say enough good things about the level of care and information I have received. The surgery center was an absolutely delightful. The cleanliness was superior than any place I have ever been a part of.
