He has now…read moreperformed two successful hip replacement surgeries on my husband, and both experiences have exceeded every expectation. From the very first consultation to the final follow-up, Dr. Cannova demonstrated the highest level of professionalism, compassion, and surgical expertise. What stands out most is his ability to make patients feel completely confident and at ease. He took the time to explain every step of the process, answered all our questions with patience, and genuinely cared about my husband's recovery and quality of life. His precision and attention to detail in the operating room are unmatched and the results speak for themselves. My husband's recovery was so smooth and remarkable that family and friends could hardly believe he had just undergone a hip replacement! Within a short time, he was walking pain-free and regaining his strength faster than we ever imagined possible. The entire surgical and post-op team under Dr. Cannova's leadership is equally impressive organized, responsive, and kind. They made the entire experience seamless and stress-free for both patient and family. Dr. Cannova isn't just an outstanding orthopedic surgeon; he's a life-changer. We are forever grateful for his skill, compassion, and dedication to his patients. If you are looking one for the best orthopedic surgeon in the Maryland area, look no further than Dr. Christopher Cannova.

She is just the nicest, kindest person ever. Stacey, advised me to go to the urgent care center when I couldn't get in to see an orthopedic doctor before the weekend.

I went to see Dr. Gazdag and he was wonderful. He was funny and an excellent professional. We took more X-rays, so if you see a light in Rockville, it is just me glowing at night.

His imaging diagnosis convinced me of the importance to move forward with hip replacement surgery. Summit Orthopedics works closely with Sibley Hospital so I was able to schedule a Monday morning surgery and overnight stay at the hospital.

Dr. Siram brought together a great surgical team comprised of the Sibley Hospital Orthopedic doctors and nursing staff and an anaesthesiologist. The first nurse assigned to my post-Op care placed top priority on Pain Control and coordinated a meeting with In-House PT/OT Team to review and practice the Post-Operative exercises. I completed 2 weeks of In-Home physical therapy with Potomac Home Health Care, affiliated with Johns Hopkins and Sibley. The PT specialist was exceptional: checked vitals; reviewed my medications; provided a home exercise plan that helped me to begin walking with and without a cane, before starting In Office Post-Op PT.

He is the quintessentially arrogant surgeon. At times, he appeared amused by my discomfort following my surgery and physical therapy. I asked when he thought the pain would subside or go away, and he said: "All pain goes away eventually." Really? At that point I thought to myself I've had enough of this self-aggrandizing schmuck -- and that afternoon I scheduled an appointment with another orthopedic surgeon. This guy radiates lack of interest in you or your pain. I don't expect miracles from a doctor, nor do I expect him or her to become my BFF -- but a do expect, and think I deserve, at least a minimal degree of empathy.

In my experience, the combination of a very competent doctor with being finely atuned to the human aspect of things is a rare thing to find. My son is the kind of person that needs to know what is happening every step of the way, and Dr Fitzgibbons not only welcomed his questions (even in after hours), but also gave praise for his curiosity. Also, the post-op included a lot of difficulty handling pain, finding the right perscription, and getting it filled through insurance...

I had to ask for someone to return to the room and walk me through what I should be doing--and they seemed genuinely annoyed that I asked. This office was full of that Old-Guard, Good Ole Boys Club energy. I have been to Orthos before and this was the worst. By far.

While I was undergoing his patient healing ministrations, my RIGHT rotator cuff had a full tear. Another surgery. If it weren't for Jim, I would have been a "Bag of Bones." I FULLY recovered from both, and returned to work full-time, and for 2 decades enjoyed work, outdoor activities, and travelling around the world. At one point, my husband was also his patient. We went to Jim because only the best would do. A few years later, I went back to Jim for PT. This time for another unrelated injury. I was in a lot of pain, and had been out of work for 9 months. This time, it was my back, and I did not want surgery. Again, Jim's healing ministrations, specifically tailored PT routine, and I was able to return to work -- first part-time, then full-time. Now, 15 years later, in a freaky mishap, I tore both my biceps as well as rotator cuffs on BOTH sides (again). Back to Jim, because surgery is not a viable option under my current circumstances. I wanted a totally drug-free and noninvasive remedy. Jim's magical healing treatment is presently helping me strengthen my back muscles to compensate for the weakened arms and to become independent again. I owe to Jim my full recovery and restoration of the quality of life in the past, and I have full confidence that this time as well I will continue to make steady progress, and once again restore full use of my limbs to regain some semblance of normalcy in my life. Jim is a deeply caring professional who puts his patients' wellbeing first. He is empathetic yet will not hold back if, in his professional judgement, the patient's preferences may not be in their best interest. He is a straightforward chap. With him, what you see is what you get. Absolutely, no nonsense! You get nothing but the best and individually tailored treatment from Jim to help you put back on the road to recovery. His Office Manager, Trish, whom I have known just as long is highly professional. With her extensive experience, she would work with your Insurance Company to make sure that you get the best treatment, get it as long as necessary, and are assured maximum allowable benefit covered by your Plan.
