Hip & shoulder - thoroughly explained issues with both the hip & shoulder - what procedures would be best - and why took the time & did not rush - great bedside & personable. I am a great example too of Dr. Domb's hip resurfacing from 2013 - 2024 - that hip is perfect still.
DTVerified patient
Very professional.
ROVerified patient
All of visits with Dr. Domb have been nothing but amazing. His team is extremely professional and I would never think of seeing anyone other than them. Dr. Domb replaced my right hip and I'm back again to have my left replaced. I would and do recommend him to anyone who needs help in this field.
JWVerified patient
Having had double hip replacements, I can highly recommend American hip institute. The doctors and support staff are professional, thorough and responsive to the needs of the patient.

Great experience. Doctor was first class.
Rebecca C.Verified patient
Dr. Sugarman's office is located in American Hip Institution. AHI contacted me prior to the appointment to confirm my insurance information and for me to fill out the preliminary questionnaires through an online portal, which saved much of the waiting time on the appointment day. The office was very clean and nice, and the professional demeanor that the staff has shown was impressive. Dr. Sugarman was very knowledgeable and professional, explained clearly about the cause of my symptoms and diagnosis, and answered to all the questions I had. It was a pleasant visit.

Never got back to me with anything. Saw I was in pain and I waited weeks to hear anything. I called multiple times and still months later don’t know why I’m in pain. Don’t recommend if you want someone reliable
December 2, 2020Jeremiah D.Verified patient
Dr. Etan Sugarman was courteous and knowledgeable. He recommended the best solution and made sure I knew what were the next steps. Would definitely recommend this Doctor.
January 28, 2020Ashley T.Verified patient
Dr. Sugarman and his PA Shelby are truly exceptional. Personable, attentive, sensitive, knowledgeable, and pro-active. They listened to my concerns & answered my inquiries with empathy. I was comforted and confident in their abilities when Shelby said, "We believe in treating the patient, not just their symptoms." Dr. Sugarman asked what treatment has been effective to alleviate my pain and agreed to administer an injection of medicine. He used ultrasound to better target the proper point of insertion and I felt no discomfort at all. My previous doctor eyeballed the injection site and on 2 of the 3 occasions inflicted pain.
As a ballet teacher and former professional dancer, I highly recommend Dr. Sugarman & his team.
January 17, 2020Stanley H.Verified patient

June 25, 2019Kjersti O.Verified patient
The only complain is the wait time. I waited for over an hour plus for my appointment. If appointment time is not meant to be kept then there’s no point of scheduling. The doctor’s time is important so is mine.

I would come back - thanks!

He's the best ortho doctor out there, and I am moving out of state and will only use a doctor he suggests in the future. That's how much I respect and trust him.

Dr. Sugarman saw me soon after I got an xray. It was just a long wait time to get an xray as there is only one unit and 5 people were in front of me. He gave me a through examination and answered all questions I had. I highly recommend him.
January 7, 2019Initials hidden
I think he is an amazingly understanding doctor and he fully explained my situation to me with kindness and warmth but honestly is the most important thing. I trust him and am scared of surgery but would rather go into it knowing the facts than not.
January 3, 2019Kayko A.Verified patient
Doctor Eton Sugarman is truly a Great Doctor. I did the research
and I knew of his fantastic credentials. He was Friendly and very Kind to me. I came in worried about my knee fracture.. and left with a cool "Bionic-Woman" Brace and a feeling that everything would get back to Normal again. Now I have a Plan and I very very grateful that the healing has begun, and I look forward to my follow-up visit
December 18, 2018Eva J.Verified patient
Oh man! Dr. Sugarman was awesome Good handshake, friendly eye contact, you can tell he is a straight up dude. I am so glad I found him. I went to a previous dr. that I was not happy with...Dr. Sugarman listened and paid attention to my problem area. Which is my left knee and showed concern. I was losing hope because no one was listening to my problem.

November 29, 2018La Rain J.Verified patient
I thought Dr. Sugarman was excellent. He listen to my medical concerns, explained in detail his diagnosis, and discussed future issues, possible on treatment and additional course of action if needed.
November 13, 2018Scotto M.Verified patient
After injuring my knee overtraining for the marathon, I went to visit Dr. Sugarman. Getting an appointment was super easy and the experience was terrific. Dr. Sugarman instantly knew what it was ailing my aching knee and was able to diagnose and recommend a course of action and treatment all without any unnecessary x-rays or MRIs. Great bedside manner too and appeared to be very knowledgable and experienced, particularly when it comes to sports injuries. Would highly recommend.
October 30, 2018Jason L.Verified patient
Dr. Sugarman was quite patient and compassionate when I arrived feeling very overwhelmed with my recent ankle injury and resulting knee issues. His PA, the nurse and everyone else were very cordial and attentive as well.
