Dr. Alani made my rotator cuff surgery as easy as possible. From my first appointment to the surgery and through post-op, he’s been extremely attentive, making sure that I’m healing properly without a lot of pain. His bedside manner is second-to-none as you can tell he really cares about his patients and he’s always very friendly while also taking the time to explain what he’s doing and why, which definitely helped me have a better understanding of treatment options. I can’t recommend him enough. I live in League City, but his knowledge and care were more than worth the drive out to Sugarland.
