Dr. Sharma is a very attentive and personable doctor. It never seems like he is in a hurry ... which was the manner I was used to from many doctors.

Scheduled the appointment with Dr Samir Sharma, but Dr Kavita Sharma saw us. She wasn’t able to diagnose, and asked Dr Samir Sharma to help

He was in a hurry and spent about a min for the total consult with minimal physical examination. He immediately asked for an MRI before even looking at the injured area.

Having Dr. Sharma as the consulting doctor today means a lot to me, by which I mean that he is an extremely rare kind of good doctor who is knowledgeable, experienced and confident and also at the same time is very willing to explain and address patient's concerns and questions with his highly professional skills and experience. God has surely blessed me through Dr. Sharma today. All my concerns were addressed with full explanations in a friendly and professional manner. Just wish there are more doctors like him around.

I have yet to have surgery done by Dr. Sharma, so this review is solely for my consultation/office visit. I didn't have to wait long, maybe 15 minutes in the waiting room, 5 minutes once my vitals were taken. Dr. Sharma was professional, and informative. He let me know exactly where my issue was, examined my knee, and gave his recommendation. I was able to schedule my surgery as early as 2 weeks after my first visit. So far, great things! Hoping my surgery leads to more positive reviews.
More than 1 year agoStephanie C.Verified patient
Great, friendly doctor that takes the time to examine your injuries rather than just rely on what's printed on mri/xray reports. Patient enough to explain the injury and why it occurred. Also answered any questions I had. Was able to schedule a surgery the same day :)
January 21, 2016Michelle H.Verified patient
I recently had a minor knee surgery, and operating doc was Mr sharma. Mr Sharma seemed very interested to get to know my problem in my first visit. Unlike my previous run in with another Doc, Sharma is very knowledgeable.
The staff too were very helpful in insurance formalities, frequent reminders.
Only shortcoming i noticed is,
You cant pay the fee online. We are asked to furnish credit card details for any payment that you owe. Or you need to travel to the medical facility to pay which is time consuming.
December 21, 2015Vishwanath C.Verified patient
Kavitha aand Samir were very nice people and obviously qualified doctors. They diagnosed my problem, talked me through it, and gave me exercises to do after I received treatment. It was a pleasure to go there this morning.

Initial visit for a consult on left knee issue. Very positive impression of Dr. Sharma. Have scheduled MRI and will be back in a few days for follow up diagnosis. Office staff very helpful to this new patient.
July 2, 2014Robert B.Verified patient
Very kind and professional staff. Dr Sharma was precise, confidant and reassuring. I was expecting really bad news and he made me feel so at ease and relieved that he could treat my condition with minimally invasive procedures. Overall- extremely pleased.

April 8, 2014Abhi S.Verified patient
It took an hour to get in to see him and my appointment was at 9am. You would think he wouldn't be so far behind so early in the day. Other than that, he was great. Friendly, knowledgeable and compassionate.
February 21, 2014Initials hidden
He was good, but he should have given some thought and used his experience to diagnose before recommending an MRI, which turned out to be normal.
he said everything is normal in my knee, which is a good news, but I still have some discomfort in my knee and he has no idea why..so I went here for the sole purpose of diagnostic and I don't know what the problem is.
might me this happened only in my case as he appeared to be professional and well knowledgeable .

Dr. Sharma was down to earth, friendly, attentive and helpful. I am glad I chose him to consult with. I had only expected a 2nd opinion but was offeered help. That was a great and pleasant surprise.

Dr. Did not try to make money of me, he took care of my problem right away. I love the X-ray machine there that you can see things right on the spot.
December 30, 2013Dieutri L.Verified patient
Dr. was very precise and listened to my concerns regarding my knee. He was able to have me get an MRI the same day, and follow up appointment will be a few days out.
September 25, 2013Initials hidden
Quite knowledgable and experienced, more so than some of the other highly qualified ortho doctors I've seen. Empathetic too, but listening ability/time spent with patient can be improved.

He was straight to the point and was suggesting me on what to do for getting better results. I need to wait for some time to see his suggestion make a difference to my problem.

Office was excellent. Came in once and never had to go back. My knee feels like new after a cortisone injection. Love the staff.
September 8, 2011JG
So far I am very pleased with Dr. Sharma. I was able to get an appointment online just a few days beforehand. As an athelete, I was pleased and relieved to see that his office is in a Sports Medicine clinic. That is a huge bonus for me. My needs were assessed immediately and Dr. Sharma was direct and to the point. I left his office with a MRI order in hand and look forward to his review of my case. His office staff were very friendly and efficient and medical staff took the time to listen and ask questions.
