Millstein, MD > Achilles rupture repair surgery went amazing. I started walking all on my own again at 8 weeks post surgery. Dr. Ramkumar and his team are amazing to work with, educated me on the process and got me back on my feet in no time. The healing process wasn’t too painful, I was most nervous about this. The team made sure my wound care was properly maintained, post operation check-ins were great and as each day progressed I was able to start walking again. I would highly recommend this surgeon! J.

My dad was struggling with severe hip pain, and we were anxious about his hip replacement. Dr. Ramkumar treated him with remarkable compassion and patience, thoroughly explaining every step to put us at ease. They used advanced Mako robotic-assisted surgery, which was incredibly precise and minimally invasive, enabling my dad to walk the very next day—a fantastic result! Dr. Ramkumar took the time to personally call me, his son, right after the surgery to reassure me that everything went perfectly, which was a huge relief and meant so much during such a nerve-wracking moment. The hospital staff was equally kind and professional, making the entire experience seamless. The pain my dad was experiencing before the surgery is gone and now enjoying life again, and he cannot be happier with the outcome. The team’s follow-up care was outstanding, ensuring his recovery was smooth. Thank you, Dr. Ramkumar, for giving my dad a new lease on life! I highly recommend Dr. Ramkumar to anyone needing hip surgery.” Top Tier, best of the best.

During my first appointment, his approach stood out: as clear, detailed, compassionate, and above reproach. He took the time to explain every option available to me, answering anll my questions, and immediately gave me confidence in his care. > > His entire support team deserves recognition. His Nurse Practitioner was attentive and reassuring throughout the process. The Surgery Coordinator made the pre-op scheduling seamless, and the front desk team was consistently welcoming and efficient. A special shout-out to the Disability Forms Specialist as well—quick, knowledgeable, and kind, which made dealing with the paperwork stress-free. > > The pre-op process was impressively thorough. Dr. Ramkumar’s comprehensive website laid out everything I needed to know—from the days leading up to surgery, to what to expect the day of, to post-op recovery protocols. That kind of accessibility and detail truly made a difference in helping me feel prepared and empowered. > > A few days after surgery, I had a minor concern and messaged his office—Dr. Ramkumar responded almost immediately, which speaks volumes about his dedication and attentiveness to patient care. > > Thanks to his clearly communicated physical therapy protocol, I am pleasantly surprised to be back to most of my usual activities just 4 short weeks after surgery. I never expected such progress so soon, and it’s a direct result of the quality of care I received. > > To Dr. Ramkumar and your incredible staff: thank you for guiding me through this journey with expertise, efficiency, and genuine care. I’m beyond grateful. K.

Now, I’m 6 weeks out from left knee replacement surgery, having had the *best possible experience* under Dr. Prem Ramkumar’s excellent care. He and his helpful staff have been with me every step of the way. His friendly demeanor put me at ease, and his knowledge and experience engendered my trust. But the best part is how well I have felt postoperatively. My pain was very well managed, and my range of motion is progressing rapidly with the help of both his in-house physical therapist as well as a handy app that has home exercises which are advanced in stages. The app also provides a lot of useful recovery information and a way to easily communicate with the office. If you need any type of knee surgery, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Ramkumar to you. I will be returning later in the year to have him replace my right knee. A+ positive experience. L.
