Patient Reviews
The staff was welcoming and Dr. Hussain was very kind.
Very nice and knowledgeable and made sure I understood everything.
Answers all my questions, very detailed on all of the options I had for my issue
Excellent experience. Dr Hussain explains what problem is and recommends treatment.
Very efficient staff. Procedure went smoothly, but felt somewhat rushed. Would have preferred to go over X-rays with doctor rather than be handed paper copies that I had no idea what I was looking at.
Dr. Waqas Hussein is a superb doctor . He is very kind and compassionate and he is extremely knowledgeable . He puts you at peace the moment he steps into the room!
Dr Hussain repaired a horrible break I had on my left elbow I appreciate him and definitely would ask for him if I ever fall and break something again
My 1st experience with Dr Hussain and it was very favorable. He explained what was going on with my shoulder and was thorough on my options. Got immediate help with an injection. Will definitely see him again with any future issues.
He gives great patient care. I donΓ’ΒΒt think I could trust anyone more for orthopedic surgery! Dr. Hussain is very knowledgeable and explains the diagnosis thoroughly.
Amazingly happy, polite, good listener, and he likes Elvis. That makes him perfect already. Truthfully, everyone was pleasant to interact with. Thank you all and God Bless. π₯° Elaine Anderson

I visited for a knee issue. I filled out form, had x-rays, got a diagnosis with a simple explanation of the issue, and given a short term and long term plan.
