Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I’ve had three shoulder surgeries with Dr. Dedhia. He’s an amazing surgeon and a compassionate person. He always takes time to talk to me and explain things to me. Highly recommend!

Dr. Dedhia - knowledgeable and personable
Dr Dedhia greeted me and hubby. He explained my leg bone break, showed me my CT images, and gave me surgical options. Kind and to the point!

Successful Arthroscopic Knee Surgery..
Dr Dedhia treated me for a knee issue. Initially, I had it drained and received a cortisone shot. While it did not resolve the issue, it got me on track. Following an MRI, a meniscus issue was identified. Surgery was scheduled within 2 weeks. The surgery went well and I had no pain after the surgery... and minimal swelling. I was walking without pain immediately. I scheduled 6 weeks of PT, (not with OSNI) which again went well and without pain. When my initial need for medical assistance started, I called Dr Dedhia's office. My appointment was scheduled within 2 days. That was far better than I had expected. I could not have been more pleased with the entire experience and the results.

Shoulder replacement
Saw Dr. for existing shoulder problem , reviewed my options with him. Decided on shoulder replacement surgery. Surgery went well , outpatient, home in a few hours ! Horror stories of pain irrelevant as I had very little after surgery. With rehab in St.John office new shoulder doing well ! Many thanks to Dr. Dedhia , his staff , and group of therapists in St. John for their help.

Got my life back
After 10 yrs of going to doctors regarding my shoulder pain and being told “ you have arthritis take ibuprofen” I finally decided to see a specialist and was lucky enough to find Dr Dedhia. He was the first doctor to believe my pain might be something more . 2 MRI’s later I was informed that I had 2 completely torn rotator cuffs along with other tendon and muscle tears . I couldnt believe it. I had heard from friends that shoulder surgery was worse than open heart surgery (quote from someone who had both) but Dr Dedhia assured me if I followed the plan I would have a better quality of life. This was the plan: 1. I needed a good doctor which he believed he was 2. I had to be a good patient and follow everything they told me to do 3. I needed a therapist that would push me but would also no when to hold back I followed everything . I had 2 surgeries within 4 months. Dr Dedhia gave me my life back . TOTAL FUNCTIONAL PAIN FREE SHOULDERS! I would recommend Dr Dedhia and his team

Dr Dedhia repaired a bad rotator cuff tear in March 2018 due to a fall. This is my dominant shoulder/arm. After physical therapy, 4 months of light weight lifting, I am back to playing a vigorous game of tennis starting January 2019. Thanks so much.

Unfortunately I was referred to Dr. Dedhia due to torn rotator cuff. His bedside manner is awesome and he really care about your progression. I would highly recommend him as a doctor. As a nurse I have worked with many physicians and he rocks a physician.

I saw Dr. Dedhia for bilateral knee pain. After x rays determined no cartilage in my knees he suggested conservative methods to relieve my pain before rushing in to surgery. Unfortunately, those did not work for me and he performed a partial knee replacement. I am attending physical therapy and am making improvements. Dr.'s concern for me was comforting and I plan to have him operate on my other knee.
