Ramkumar, MD, MBA > I highly recommend Dr. Prem Ramkumar. He is a talented surgeon who performs arthroscopic hip surgery. After other orthopedists recommended that I have arthroscopic hip surgery, I had a difficult time finding someone who actually performs it. When I finally saw Dr. Ramkumar, he listened patiently to my story of pain and frustration. He is personable and knew exactly what I was describing and how to fix it with this minimally invasive procedure. I am now four weeks post surgery. Just three small scars and I’m walking normally and doing great! I have to mention how organized he is with so much information and guidelines on his website. And the couple of times I had questions, he responded right away. I couldn’t be more pleased with my experience and results. A.

Ramkumar, MD, MBA > I had a very pleasant experience with Dr. Ramkkumar. I was in life altering pain for over a few years. I thought it was sciatica but it ended up being bone on bone left hip. He had me scheduled for a complete hip replacement the following month. Immediately after surgery the pain in the hip was gone and was sent home the next day . On my very first post surgery visit with Dr. Ramkumar , I walked in under my own steam....pain free and no cane. I can't thank him enough. He gave me my mobility back. Also my freedom to do the things I enjoy. D.

Ramkumar, MD, MBA > Thank you Dr. Ramkumar for your amazing talant. The surgery you performed on my new hip is better than I expected, like a dream come true. I never knew I would be walking so soon pain free. After the surgery my new hip feels right at home by following your Recommended pre-surgery exercises and after surgery physical therapy 😀 You are the best! D.

Ramkumar, MD, MBA > I’m 6 weeks post-op from a surgical hip dislocation surgery performed by Dr. Ramkumar. With this being my first surgery, I was very nervous. Dr. Ramkumar made me feel extremely comfortable by thoroughly explaining the process including possible outcomes. The procedure was very successful and couldn’t be happier with the outcome! I no longer feel the pain and discomfort that I was feeling prior to the surgery. He personally checked on me multiple times after surgery. His dedication to patients is above and beyond my expectations. His post op protocols ensured my recovery would go smoothly. My situation was very unique and I’m so grateful Dr. Ramkumar was the one performing the surgery. I highly recommend anyone who is in need of hip or knee surgery to seek him out. You will not be disappointed with the results! R.

Ramkumar, MD, MBA > I recently underwent a hip resurfacing procedure performed by Dr. Ramkumar, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. From the initial consultation to post-operative care, Dr. Ramkumar took the time to thoroughly explain the hip resurfacing procedure, addressing all my concerns and ensuring I felt confident in the decision to move forward. The surgery itself was a success, and the pain relief I now experience is beyond what I had hoped for. The post-operative care provided by Dr. Ramkumar and his team is exceptional. They monitored my recovery closely, providing clear instructions for rehabilitation exercises and ensuring I had all the necessary support during my recovery period. I highly recommend Dr. Ramkumar to anyone seeking a skilled and caring orthopedic surgeon for hip resurfacing. I am grateful for the positive impact the doctor has had on my life through this transformative procedure. D.

Ramkumar, MD, MBA > Dr. Ramkumar is a one of a kind master of his craft. I can’t say enough good things about the man, but I hope my story sheds some light on his skill, character, & may help someone else who like I did, feels confused, afraid, & is unsure of the future before them. > > I met Dr. Ramkumar during the hardest time in my life, & yet trusting him as my surgeon has surpassed all expectations. I can honestly say his guidance and support have been the best experience I’ve had dealing with the US medical system in my entire life. > > I’m a 25 year old professional multi-discipline extreme sports athlete. (Cliff Jumping, Surfing, Snowboarding, Parkour, Freediving, etc.) This year, after over a decade of training, I suffered the worst injury of my career. I fully tore BOTH my ACLs (and a bit of meniscus). The tears happened 3 months apart & although I had an MRI, the first ACL tear had been missed by a previous physician which is what eventually led to the other knee getting injured in the same way. > > When I walked into Dr. Ramkumars office to get the second knee injury looked at he felt both of my knees by hand and without even seeing the MRI yet, told me he was confident I had torn both. After looking at my MRIs he immediately spotted the tears. > > He’s new, but he’s cutting edge, doing techniques that a lot of the older surgeons aren’t, because they’re more comfortable with the techniques they learned back in the day. He broke down my injury & the details of my recommended surgery in English instead of usual medical jargon, told me with confidence he could get me back to being an elite athlete again, & I’ll never forget what he said after suggesting the patellar tendon graph… > “listen man this is the Ferrari of ACL replacement surgeries. I’m gonna fix you up” > > Since then Dr. Ramkumar has been attentive & invested in my successful recovery. Texting me with updates, checking in every week & giving me loads of advice. > > Since I’m one of the few Bi lateral ACL tear patients around, (meaning I tore both at the same time) he went the extra mile to consult colleagues in the east coast with more experience to make sure he had as much information as possible before recommending anything to me. > > I have felt confident in every choice he’s made, I’ve now done the first surgery, and am already a week ahead of my recovery timeline, 20 days post surgery I’m walking around semi-normal, 90° flexation, full extension/toe touching, and getting exponentially better each day. > > I have no doubt that in proper time & consistent PT I will be back to the level I was before any of this. > > I couldn’t recommend someone higher if you’re suffering from a hip or knee injury, especially if you’re an athlete where a full 100% recovery is vital to pursuing your passion & returning to what you love most in the world.

With her advanced age and complex health concerns, this surgery was a major decision for our family. We are incredibly grateful for the expertise and care that made it a success. > > It is difficult to put into words how much this outcome means to us. When someone you love faces a major surgery, you want a surgeon whose skill you can trust. Dr. Ramkumar earned that trust and our wholehearted recommendation. > > Thank you, Dr. Ramkumar, for making such a meaningful difference in our loved one’s life. Five stars hardly seem enough. M. Avila Rating: 5/5 · Source: Google · Date: a week ago [Reviewer’s Google activity](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/112745469212515675409/reviews?hl=en) Source link type: reviewer activity Attributed clinician: Prem N. Ramkumar, MD, MBA > Prior to having my hip arthroscopy. I was in excruciating pain daily. Having gone my whole life up until this point without any prior surgeries, I was nervous about this procedure. However after sitting with Dr Ramkumar and learning about the surgery I felt much better and dare I say excited to have this done. Everything from his explanation of the surgery to the planning of everything prior to the day of surgery was flawless, all of my prescriptions were ready for me to pick up two weeks before surgery day so there was no worry about not having them on time. His team was super helpful and was available to answer any of my questions that came up before surgery day. They gave me a great website with all the info I needed including a medication schedule. I fully expected to be in pain post surgery but this was the easiest recovery with literally no pain. At most I had mild occasional discomfort that was easily treated with Tylenol. I attribute this to the doctors detailed planning and post op instructions so clearly laid out for me. Even my physical therapy was done in house and was top tier. I would have this surgery again in a heartbeat and my choice will always be Dr Ramkumar. I can’t thank him enough for helping me get my life back! B.

Ramkumar, MD, MBA > Dr. Ramkumar is an exceptionally skilled surgeon. Despite my grandmother’s complex medical history, he was able to successfully perform a total hip replacement, giving her not only improved mobility but also a renewed outlook on life. > > We wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Ramkumar to anyone in need of orthopedic surgery. He is not only an incredible surgeon but also a compassionate physician who genuinely cares for his patients. He truly goes above and beyond to advocate for them and ensure they receive the best possible care. Our family is incredibly grateful for everything he has done for my grandmother. B.
