    Everyone he does surgery on needs a second or third surgery. He does something while doing surgery…read moreso that you will have to have another one. He is a cash cow for your insurance. Everyone I met while doing physical therapy had to have a second surgery. Every patient had to have a second surgery. My carpal Tunnel surgery hand Hurst worse since I had surgery I'm sure he did something so that I would need another surgery. Find another doctor.

    I broke my wrist earlier this year. After going to St. Mary's ER, the doctor said I needed surgery…read moreand referred me to Dr. Pathi. Dr. Pathi assured me that my wrist would be "100 %" after surgery and physical therapy. This could not be further from the truth. He completed my surgery incorrectly and disfigured my wrist. I needed a plate and screws, he put them on top of my wrist, they should have been underneath. I needed bone grafting, he said he did that, I'm not to sure that he did. My wrist was dislocated from my hand and was starting to veer to the left. He offered to do a second surgery to remove the plate and screws and to shave the bone down on my wrist KNOWING IT WAS WRONG! SEE ATTACHED PHOTOS! If I could post my phone number to help YOU. I would. I went through so much pain both physically and mentally with the surgery that he did. I consulted two other very competent surgeons that specialize in the hand and wrist and they were both astonished at how my wrist looked. I chose one of those surgeons, and TWO SURGERYS LATER, my wrist is on it's way to recovering the correct way. Please do yourself a favor and stay away from this surgeon. He is incompetent of doing invasive surgery's. Last but not least, his office staff is rude. I was told I couldn't have a copy of MY x-rays because of HIPA laws. THEY'RE MY X-RAYS! I asked for a copy of the paperwork that I had filled out and signed. No response. The customer service with his staff and the incomitance of Dr. Pathi himself is shocking to say the least. If you need a competent surgeon for upper extremities (hand to shoulder), call Dr. Rose in Newport Beach. He is amazing.
