Dr. Stabile was very knowledgeable and answered all of my concerns. He was very professional. Dr. Stabile did total hip replacements on both of my hips. I can walk with no pain.

Mako total knee replacement in 7/21 was a great decision. I was sent to Dr. Stabile blindly by my HMO. Having 3 prior spinal surgeries I was confident if I didn’t like what I was hearing I would ask for a transfer of care.
Well what I heard was encouraging. A few months later I’m being put under at Eisenhower Medical Center and woke
Up with a new titanium knee
Recovery was easy. The horrific pain I was braced for never developed. I put the work in before the surgery and a
Month after the operation Physical Therapy said u was ready to leave the best.
Sure there have been some bad days and. The swelling will continue for a bit but….
Best decision regarding my healthcare ever!!! I highly recommend Dr. Stabile, the Mako robot and Eisenhower Medical Center

on December 18th Dr Louis Stabile performed a robotic hip replacement surgery. Before I went to see him I had been limping around in pain for a year because my hip was bone on bone, no cartlage left and many bone spurs. I now have a perfect hip. Dr. Stabile was so friendly with me and answered all of my questions and so upbeat about the surgery. His knowledge, experience and youthful attitude is exactly what I needed to have this surgery done. I am so grateful to you Dr Stabile. It has only been two weeks and I still have some pain but with more movement and slowly getting back to my exercise routine, the pain will continue to decrease. The girls in the office have been so helpful and caring. I can not thank everyone enough. Dr. wants to see me again in 8 weeks but has told me I am ready to start working out again, but no running yet. So I will take it slow and continue my results in 8 weeks for those of you wanting to know about the surgery. Thank you Dr. Stabile.

I had a hip replacement 10 days ago and I have the highest praise for Dr. Stabile. It's amazing but I walked without a walker or cane two days after the surgery. A close friend, a retired vascular surgeon, came to my office visit with Dr. Stabile and questioned him on his techniques, knowledge and more and rated him as an excellent surgeon for my hip replacement. His comment was "he is so passionate about his work". I'm looking forward to fully recovering and back to Pickleball in just a short while thanks to Dr. Stabile.

Hip replacement Jan 2 2018. I put this off for 5 years (fear) But the pain finally got to me. Dr stabile explained the procedure and how it would turn out. It turned out perfect. In the hospital 7am on the 2nd out 10am next day. Pain is gone and back playing golf. I did some research and talked to someone that had the same surgery with same results so if you need hip replacement I would highly recommend Dr stabile. The best. Would have given more stars if I could.

I was impressed with this Doctor. He took specific x-rays of my knees so he could see the difference between the one that had been injured and the normal one. He explained things to me and was courteous and polite, not like the orthopedic doctor I had seen previously. I will be going to Dr. Stabile for all my orthopedic care.

My total R Hip Replacement by Dr. Stabile was Oct. 2017. I suffered terribly for over two years. After having several consultations locally as well as in Los Angeles, I chose Dr. Stabile for his amicability, knowledge and confidence that put me at ease for my first surgery experience. I am quite a quirky guy, so I appreciated Stabile’s patience with me and my 10,000 questions pre and post-op. Focus on the positive reviews. Stabile is a pro. I trust he’ll fix my knees. Hip Results? Awesome!

I can not speak more highly of Dr. Stabile. I had a dislocated hip and it had been dislocated for a very long time. I was considered a high risk patient as I also have Cerebral Palsy. Dr. Stabile was very confident and assured me that he could help me. He answered all my questions and I did not feel rushed during our visits. I am recovering from surgery now and my pain level has gone from a high 10 to little or no pain. I highly recommend Dr. Stabile. I did my research and this man is the best.

Dr Stabile was so rude from the moment he stepped in the room! He didn't acknowledge my wife even after I introduced myself and her--twice! He didn't listen or show any concern as to my complaints or history. He repeatedly interrupted. He did not speak in a way that a lay person could understand-- I could barely follow even with 25 years hospital nursing experience! It was like listening to someone recite from a medical text book . I wouldn't recommend him to ANYONE!!! DO NOT GO!!!

Was in a really bad motorcycle hit and run. Shattered my right foot, left palm, and right clavicle in 4 peices. I was a humpty dumpty of patients, 3 years later, not a single problem. I am forever thankful to Dr. Stabile. 3 surgeries, a couple follow ups, and I was good to go. No prolonging issues whatsoever. I would highly recommend him to anyone on this green earth! Thank you Stabile, even your sarcasm lol.
