I was given a referral from my primary care doctor. I absolutely would consider dr. Ramkumar again if another knee injury occurs. The surgery itself was surprisingly not painful at all just sore for obvious reasons. Dr Ramkumar is honestly the best surgeon. I have only high praises for him and also Margo. She is so sweet and is so supportive. She gives helpful advice on what to do after surgery and if you’re struggling with medications or with after surgery care, by emailing her she will get to you with in the day and I love that! Best orthopedic team!

As a Div 1 Track athlete with bilateral hip pain before meeting Dr. Ramkumar no one I went to could accurately tell me what was going with my hips. After the first visit with Dr. Ramkumar he explained in detail what was going on and what my options were, from there I decided that I wanted to go through with getting a bilateral hip arthroscopy. He explained exactly what was going to happen during the procedure and about the recovery process before hand so there were no surprises. The procedure went great and I would say the recovery went even better. There was minimal to no pain within the first few days and I was walking the day of the procedure. It has now been around 4 months since the surgery and with the help of physical therapy and strength training my hips feel way better than they did before and I am able to run pain free again. I am very grateful to Dr. Ramkumar for playing a major role in my journey of getting back on the Track.

Dr. Wassef puts patients over profits. Dr. Wassef saved my life. First hip replacement surgeon in AZ put rod in hip wrong where rod shaved my femur every time I walked until he cracked femur. The images of my femur clearly showed how it happened. Dr. Wassef rebuilt. Built to last.

For almost half of my life, pain was not something that happened to me. It was the backdrop against which everything else happened. I am 23. Since I was 13, I cannot remember waking up without stiffness/pain in my back. Pain has a way of changing shape over time, beginning as a symptom but becoming part of your identity. Somewhere along the way, I stopped hoping to feel better and accepted it as part of my life. As a former UCLA Division I tennis player who has always loved being active, I spent years searching for an answer: physical therapy, massage, cupping, acupuncture, strengthening, injections, imaging, and countless evaluations across the world. I never got a clear diagnosis despite seeing several orthopedists, and was told to consider chronic pain syndrome, with exploratory spine surgery as a last resort. Every opinion carried the same message: learn to live with it. Meeting Dr. Prem Ramkumar was the first time someone wasn't just listening to my symptoms; he was trying to understand my story, asking why instead of accepting the limits of what had already been tried. As a former D1 athlete, I'd worked with plenty of physicians, but he treated me with the same precision I've learned he gives medal-winning Olympians and Stanley Cup champions he treats professionally. I felt like one of his VIPs. It changed everything when he diagnosed me with hip impingement after a careful battery of tests, since my presentation was atypical. It was the first time I had an answer, and a solution. What will stay with me forever is not just the surgery itself, but the morning after. I sat on my bed and waited for the familiar stiffness in my lower back. It never came, and to this day, it still hasn't. I biked 130 miles the first day after surgery!! I began physical therapy on day three at his office, and weaned off my crutches and brace within a week. Since then, I have moved through daily life without pain. The absence of pain has been remarkable, but what surprised me even more is everything that was restored: I sleep through the night, my mind feels quieter, and the constant background noise chronic pain creates has disappeared. My mood and energy are better, and I'm standing taller. My wearable's resting heart rate and sleep scores reflect it too: my body is finally healing, not merely enduring. It isn't just excitement, but disbelief; my brain keeps searching for the pain it's so accustomed to finding. Then, little by little, I realized it isn't temporary relief. It's freedom, for the first time in a decade. People often think surgery changes your body. With Dr. Ramkumar, it also changed my relationship with the future. For years, every decision carried an invisible calculation: could my back handle this, would I wake up unable to move? Pain quietly dictated where I went and who I believed I could become. I didn't realize how much space it occupied until it was gone. Today, I believe this surgery will make me a better athlete than I was. So many others told me this wasn't possible. Dr. Ramkumar never accepted that answer. That speaks to his character: his persistence, his curiosity, his genuine commitment to patients who've spent years searching for someone willing to keep looking. He treated me as a person whose story deserved to be understood, not another MRI. As someone who now works in medicine, I've learned he believed in me when no one else would. Medicine is often described as restoring function. Sometimes it restores possibility. No review could fully express what he gave me: mornings I had forgotten were possible, confidence in my body, and a future no longer defined by limitations. If you have spent years searching for answers, feeling unheard, or wondering whether anyone will look beyond the obvious, I cannot recommend Dr. Ramkumar enough. My experience changed the course of my life, and I will always be grateful he refused to stop asking why, and fixed me. Additionally, Margo, his NP, matches that same excellence. Her clinical sharpness was matched only by the genuine care she brought to my recovery.

My first appointment with Dr. Estess for a knee injury. I was not kept waiting long. The doctor was thorough, understanding, and patient, and put me at ease. Did not rush through the exam and took time to answer my questions, and gave me clear explanations. Also, very nice office and excellent staff.

Dr. Prem Ramkumar is amazing. I recently had my second total knee replacement from him. He is kind, considerate, knowledgeable, current with the latest technologies, all around, the ideal doctor for a joint replacement. Less than one week after surgery I feel the progress I’ve made. My physical therapist was impressed that i could slide my knee into almost 90 degrees 4 days post op. I’ve never experienced a more caring and responsive doctor. He responds to emails very quickly and answers all questions. He understands his patients and is never dismissive. Unrelated to my knee replacements that Dr. Ramkumar completed, I mentioned hip pain I am experiencing. Not only did he refer me to a colleague he respects but he phoned the colleague to discuss my situation. He asked to be kept in the loop to see me through my hip issue. I am so impressed with his kind and compassionate demeanor. I was impressed with Dr. Ramkumar after I first met him, but even more so impressed after I looked at how many studies he performed, research he completed, and papers he published. In speaking to so many about him, the overwhelming consensus seems to be the same, Dr. Prem Ramkumar is top in his field and a lifelong learner.

I first learned about Dr. Ramkumar because of his reputation for taking care of elite athletes, including Freddie Andersen, one of my favorite NHL players. As someone who has always been very active and views sports and movement as a major part of my life, I was immediately interested in his approach. My experience with Dr. Ramkumar showed me why he has earned a reputation among athletes. He has an exceptional ability to understand the demands that active people put on their bodies and combines that perspective with deep orthopaedic expertise. He was incredibly thorough, thoughtful, and took the time to explain things in a way that made complex issues easy to understand. What stood out to me most was his commitment to helping people maintain an active lifestyle. He doesn’t just look at an injury or condition in isolation — he thinks about the person, their goals, and what they want to get back to doing. That mindset is especially valuable for athletes who want to continue performing, competing, and doing the activities they love. Following his guidance, I have felt a renewed confidence in my ability to stay active and continue pursuing the things that are important to me. He helped me better understand my body and gave me the perspective and confidence to keep pushing myself and do things I wasn’t sure I would be able to do again. Dr. Ramkumar is the type of orthopaedic surgeon athletes should seek out — someone who understands that getting healthy is not just about reducing pain, but about getting back to the activities, goals, and performance levels that matter most. I have tremendous respect for his knowledge, his approach, and the care he puts into helping active people get back to doing what they love.

I was taken by LB Fire to Memorial after falling backward off my paver-covered porch and walkway, sustaining 4 fractures to my femur and making my 2012 hip replacement unstable. I was seen by the orth trauma team and referred to Dr. Ramkumar. He came to my room in the hospital, explained what was on the xray and CT scan. We planned for surgery after July 4th holiday. He went over potential benefits, complications, plan of care, etc. I was acutely aware that not too many ortho could do the complex repair. I had surgery, stayed 3 nights. Pain managed. Excellent care from all hospital staff, dept. My first post op appt with Dr. Ramkumar was positive, with wound vac and staple removal. Fracture healing was 2.5 weeks ahead of schedule! PT to be started in the next week at his office. I have to say when I called the office on a Monday morning at 8:01 a.m. to report wound vac battery died, I had a response within 1 minute. I found out that Dr. Ramkumar responded to me, issue resolved. I have positive outlook for my future, as a result.

I am a 32 year old very outdoorsy girl who had an MPFL reconstruction done in 2025 by Dr. Ramkumar. I chose to have this surgery because I had dislocated my knee cap on my right leg multiple times doing different things, including walking. There was 6 different structural problems that made it so my chances of dislocating my knee were higher than your average person. In 2024 I dislocated my knee cap slipping on ice and tore my quad tendon. That same year I Dislocated it another 3 times. i had sloughed off so much cartilage that, not only was my knee super unstable due to my MPFL being stretched out, but also I had really bad arthritis. I decided to get an MPFL reconstruction and also have stem cells placed in my knee joint from my hip to help with the arthritis. I chose Dr. Ramkumar because of his expertise in MPFL reconstruction; it is a super specialized area in orthopedics, not many surgeons are skilled In dealing with patellofemoral instability. Dr. Ramkumar is, and he Changed my life. I am now able to hike 10 days in a row, 10 plus mile hikes, thousands of feet of elevation gain and be thriving. I run on the trails so happy to have a working knee that feels like a knee should feel, stable, without pain, strong. I also hiked el Teide, The tallest peak in Spain. It stands at 12,128 ft, you gain over 4,500 Ft of elevation. It was one of the coolest days of my life. I have also snowboarded an entire season ( before that I spent two seasons unable to hit the slopes because my knee cap kept dislocating or subluxing). I love the slopes and Dr. Ramkumar helped me get back out there safely. I have been surfing as well and work as an ER nurse running around every day at work. I could not recommend Dr. Ramkumar more if you need knee surgery. Not only is he a brilliant surgeon, he also has amazing bedside manner and is very responsive when you have questions pre and post op. His office helped me With my disability paperwork so that I could be out from work to recover from Surgery and are super easy to get a hold of as well. Thank you Dr. Ramkumar for helping me get back to doing what I love :)
