Dr. Makani might be a great surgeon, which he is. But he really did not listen to me about my problems with my shoulder surgery. I asked about a cortisone shot in my shoulder because I was still experiencing substantial pain in it. He said he didn’t recommend it. He then removed all work restrictions. He seemed more worried about the DOL and the time I had been in physical therapy than me the patient. I am 65 years old and I am sorry that I have not healed as fast as he expected me to. It would have been nice if he had spent more time to learn what my job entailed. I now will have to retire.

Dr. Makani is the best of the best. He goes above and beyond to make sure you understand everything. He is the most thorough Dr I have ever been too. The office is well run and friendly. The icing on the cake..he was the NE Patriots Dr. when Brady and Gronk played for them..and has signed jerseys in the waiting room..I'm hooked, if you think you deserve the best, this is the place to go!!

Great doctor. Great care. Great experience. Dr. Makani and his staff need more than 5 stars! I am so happy that I found Dr. Makani to see me, and diagnose my extreme knee pain. The staff went above and beyond to fit me in and get the ball rolling on some xrays of my knee, and then schedule an MRI. So impressed with this WHOLE office!!
Dr. Makani has outstanding credentials, outstanding reviews, and an outstanding staff!! Best orthopedic office i have ever dealt with!!
