First time meeting Dr Rajaee today. We had an appointment at the Tarzana office. Brought my mom in for her knee (and after leaving also her hip). First impressions from our visit is that I like him and what he has to say about my mom's knee & hip. I love the fact that he took x-rays first thing when we arrived and that we were able to do them there and not go to another facility. He read the results immediately and went over the findings. For now, he gave her an injection in her hip to see if that alleviate any of her pain. We go back in six weeks for a follow up. I am very happy that I found Dr. Rajaee. Not only for my mother but for myself if I ever need anything down the road. So far, I'm good right now lol :-) Staff was nice and friendly. Wait time was no issue. read more

Dr. Rajaee is wonderful. Very kind, honest and conservative. I thought I needed surgery and he told me I could wait. Really liked his office personnel as well. ***** read more

I have had both of my hip replacements done by Dr Rajaee (2021 and 2025)! It was a very positive experience both times. The most recent one was better than the first! Pre-op education, pain management, same day discharge, home PT( by GrandCare) were exceptional! What I appreciate most about Dr Rajaee is that he had not recommended surgery on my second hip until he thought it was the best time (telling me: if I was his mother he'd recommend holding off -- this was 2 years ago). On the day of this recent surgery He told me that he'd do his best. It was what I needed to hear -- we may expect it, but it matters to hear the surgeon say it, especially when it is so routine for them but not for me!! read more

Dr. Rajaee is a skilled and compassionate surgeon. I had a total knee revision (kneecap replacement) with Dr Rajaee and couldn't be more satisfied with the results! I would recommend Dr Rajaee to anyone looking for a surgeon for knee or hip issues. Five stars! read more

Sean Rajaee, MD - Kneecap replacement, three months post surgery. - Orthopedists Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This is a review of a consultation with Sean Shahriar Rajaee of Cedars Sinai. I have severe hip arthritis initially diagnosed from a regular X-ray from an orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Michael Banffy, at Kerlan-Jobe Clinic (a Cedars Sinai affiliate). This was an unexpected diagnosis at the age of 45. I was referred to a joint replacement surgeon at Kerlan-Jobe. Both Kerlan-Jobe orthopedic doctors said that an MRI was not necessary due to the severity of my arthritis. I then scheduled a consultation with Shahriar Rajaee, and he ordered an MRI. Since the Cedars affiliate doctors told that me that an MRI was not needed, I was not too sure about getting this test done. I subsequently saw a surgeon in the San Diego area who told me that although I needed hip replacement, I did not need an MRI. I even looked up a few websites including the Mayo Clinic site for joint replacement surgery. It appears that an MRI is not necessary for diagnosis or treatment or surgery planning when severe hip arthritis is already obvious. Since there was no clear benefit to the patient, it seems like this test was ordered primarily to generate revenue.

THE BEST CARE AVAILABLE! I had a total right hip replacement at the end of May 2025. Having 7 major back surgeries over the past 30 years certainly made my experience less mysterious and I was very pleasantly surprised overall. The actual surgical and healing experience has thus far been much much easier than anticipated. Dr. Rajaee is a highly skilled surgeon. I was walking without any cane less than two weeks post operatively. Granted I am 60 and much younger in age than the typical patient, however, my vast Ortho history makes everything more challenging... My experience was greatly hampered by the challenges posed by my insurance co. They were determined to deny my claim and after more than six months of back and forth it was approved. Dr. Rajaee, Dan and the entire team at Cedars helped throughout the process and dealt with some really unreasonable and ridiculous antics health insurance companies subject us to.. I could not possibly recommend Dr Rajaee and Cedars more... read more

After the surgery, which left me in pain now for the better part of two years... I've never heard back from them after calling 2-3 times right after the surgery. Dr Rajaee is very much concerned about his ego. Not so much about his patients. I'm now needing revision surgery and I'm having it done by the VA. read more

I'm 5 months out from my total knee replacement and only wish I had done it years ago. Dr Rajaee and his team were excellent. Answered all my questions and followed up with me as needed. I expected that I would have more pain than from my prior ACL surgery and pleasantly surprised I didn't. I followed their pain management regiment and was off narcotics in 2 days. Walking a mile in three weeks and currently I can walk 4 miles with out pain. Get the Romtech device as they recommend - total game changer. If your suffering from chronic knee - GET-ER DONE form Dr Rajaee and get your life back. read more

Hip replacement was outstanding the office was great. Dr Rajaee is a great surgeon with a great team

Amazing surgeon, amazing nursing staff, and amazing hospital (Cedars). I'm seven weeks post TKR and the recovery has been easy. I was home the same day of surgery, used a walker for one day, and was walking with no problem the third day on. Back to work on day #15. Dr. Rajaee is cutting-edge, compassionate, and dedicated. He's the best! I highly recommend him and his staff!!! read more

I cannot say enough about the doctor and his staff. My surgery went really well and they have been so incredibly attentive and supportive during the entire process. He is one of the best surgeons around, but the intangibles are the things that you never know until you actually have the procedure. I had full knee replacement surgery and I'm gonna have to do it again and I will without question go back to Dr. Rajaee, and his staff. I'm extremely extremely happy and would recommend him to anybody I know. read more

Dr Rajaee is an outstanding orthopedic surgeon working with state of the art technology & materials. I would recommend him to every one I know for hip or knee surgery. I am a 68 year old woman with osteoarthritis resulting in bone on bone damage to my left hip that was starting to severly limit the amount of physical activity I enjoyed. After extensive due diligence, I met with 2 highly recommended Los Angeles based hip replacement surgeons and elected to proceed with Dr. Sean Rajaee for my left hip replacement surgery for many reasons. I am so pleased with my decision. Dr Rajaee and his team of Physician Assistants, anesthesioligists, nurses & staff were incredible. Five weeks post surgery, I am walking 4 miles/day commuting to work (70 miles/day) in my manual stick shift car. My recovery did not require any severe pain medication allowing me to default to only Tylenol. He is a remarkable doctor who made the entire process from beginning to end seamless, streamlined, stress-free and very patient friendly. The staff followed up regularly pre & post surgery providing assistance anticipating everything I might need to make this journey easy. His affiliation with Cedars Sinai was also an important factor as a first in class medical center. My outpatient surgical experience at Cedars reinforced this fact. read more

Had a Hip replacement with Dr. Rajaee in June and 8 weeks later I am cleared to resume tennis and working out! No more hip pain and my back pain has almost completely disappeared! I know everyone's experience is unique, but I can attest that my recovery resulted in much less pain than I expected and I was up, climbing stairs and on the road to full recovery the same day. His entire staff at Tarzana hospital from intake nurses, anesthesiologist and recovery were also exemplary. I guess you can say that this review is also a thank you note to Dr. Rajaee and his team! read more

I couldn't be happier with Dr. Rajee's total replacement of my right hip. I'm nine weeks post-surgery and moving exceptionally well. I am looking forward to the twelve-week mark to ski. The professionalism exhibited by Dr. Rajee and his team made me feel comfortable from the initial assessment to surgery and on to recovery. They were all easily accessible and patiently answered every question without making me feel like they had someplace better to be. read more

Dr. Rajaee has rare qualities. He's an excellent surgeon with a wonderful bedside manner. If you need a hip or knee replacement, he's the surgeon to use. read more

I was so apprehensive about my total knee replacement. I had heard that the first two weeks after surgery were unbearable. This was not the case for me. I was sore and stiff, but the pain was not that bad. The whole process was done well. My initial diagnosis ( with xrays) was very clear. I knew what to expect. The hospital provided a zoom meeting that laid out the details of the pre and post surgery. Post surgery physical therapy and a romtech machine contributed to a smooth and speedy recovery. I'm eight weeks out, am walking comfortably and even riding my bike. Dr. Rajaee and his PA were great communicators. I couldn't be happier. read more

Dr. Rajaee is a fabulous surgeon, a compassionate doctor, and a warm and welcoming human being. I had a total hip replacement with him at Tarzana Medical Center. Everyone on his team is excellent at their jobs. Dr. Rajaee is in that sweet spot of young enough to know the latest techniques and technology, and experience enough to know what he's doing. Run (ok, walk) to his practice! Susie Wolfson read more

Dr. Rajaee performed a total hip replacement for me about 2 months ago. The operation went quite well and I have experienced very little pain and did not need opioid medication (though it was available). My post operative progression was rapid; I was walking unaided and driving 3 weeks later. I had home visits from nurses and physical therapists who helped my recovery. I did not experience any problems with my incision. I did have some leg swelling which was minimized by elevation and icing. I strongly recommend Dr. Rajaee and his team for hip surgery. read more

Dr. Rajaee is a skilled professional of the highest quality. Not only does he care and have a huge heart but he is genuinely concerned that you consider all aspects the the surgery to ensure a successful outcome. Dr. Rajaee has a Physician Assistant, Dan Marciano which informs you of every detail of the surgery and the healing process thoroughly with you so you feel comfortable and confident throughout your surgery pre op and post op. Dr Rajaee's entire staff is friendly and helpful and considers your needs in this process. The surgery was easy and I was able to walk out to the car right after surgery with a walker. I had little discomfort the following week and grew stronger each day. Dr. Rajaee arranged for me to have a Physical Therapist at home to help me through exercises to stimulate my healing. The hip replacement technique is frontal and the scar is minimal and healed quickly after surgery. I cannot tell you how grateful I am to Dr. Rajaee that I am able to walk again with no pain. You will not regret the surgery. It allowed me to return to my life with strength and determination to succeed again in pursuing my dreams and not let physical ailments stand in my way. Thank you, Dr. Rajaee for making me feel whole again. I never knew I would be as strong as before and able to walk without pain and anxiety of falling. God bless you and your staff for getting me through one of the most difficult times in my life. read more

Went to Dr.Rajaee for knee problem. He read MRI and told me I had a bone bruise and to walk with a cane or a walker. I then started to ask him some questions and was told "If you have questions make another appointment" and he and his entourage walked out of the room before I could say a word. He might be the best in the business but his attitude sucks. I won't recommend him to anybody. If you want to be treated like crap go see him read more

If a 10 star rating was possible, I would be happy to rate my experience with Dr. Rajaee and his staff a 10!! The care and dedication exhibited before and after my TKR has been excellent. Dr. Rajaee is compassionate, explains things well and is an excellent surgeon. My physical therapist (40 years experience) stated my replacement was one of only a few that he considered "Perfect"!! read more

I had total hip replacement with Dr. Rajaee and recommend him at the highest level possible. I had a great outcome and was treated wonderfully throughout the process. Everything was thoroughly explained and with kindness and patience. First rate surgeon. read more

The best in my opinion staff very kind He s a fine dr assured me that I will be fine read more

Sean Rajaee is an exceptional and gifted surgeon, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. He has my complete confidence and admiration. In a strange twist of fate, in just over a year I find myself writing a review of Sean immediately after Emma L for a second time. While her "review" of Sean Rajaee is unbelievably unprofessional for a medical practitioner, it is also mean spirited and full of dog-whistles. To date, I've only written one incredibly positive review of Sean. This is my second. Emma has written six critical reviews in total. Interestingly, only one of us has been operated on by Sean, and according to Emma it ain't her. Enough of her. In 2022 Sean replaced my arthritic right hip. His expertise, and that of the team at Cedars Sinai ensured that I have not had any - and I mean any - issues with my hip. It's like it was never replaced. Totally seamless surgery and recovery, with absolutely no pain a year later. This year my left knee was giving me significant pain and affecting my everyday life. Fortunately, Sean identified that the arthritis was limited to only one compartment of my knee, and that a partial replacement was possible. This meant that the surgery would be less invasive and the recovery much quicker. Sean also noted that the knee would still feel much more natural than if I had a full replacement. At six weeks post-surgery, I am completely pain free and loving having my life back. He was absolutely correct. Not only was his surgery done with great expertise and success, like my hip replacement it was done as an outpatient procedure. I was walking without any support within two weeks, and my knee really does feel completely natural. I was lucky in that the arthritis in my knee was limited, and there's still a possibility that I will need a revision at some later stage, but if there's a chance you can have a partial rather than a full replacement then go for it. The team Sean works with is also superb. They are each so talented in their fields, attentive to all the details, and wonderfully kind. They took away every ounce of stress from what can be a nerve wracking time. There are so many people to thank, but in particular I'd like to say how grateful I am to Dan Marcelino. Magic. Again, read the reviews and I think you'll find a common thread. Sean Rajaee is quite the best person to have on your side when your hips and knees aren't! read more

I was scheduled yesterday (after a 3 month wait) to have a revision of a hip replacement that was supposed to be done by Dr Rajaee and an assisting doctor. Both doctors confirmed they would be in the OR and we took 3 months to plan for that reason. The first replacement failed because the other doctor in his office did not do it correctly. I arrived at Cedars, they began to start my IV and I overheard another patient saying the doctor that was supposed to be assisting was doing another major surgery with another patient. I asked the nurse if both doctors would be still be on the case. She said she was having the doctors speak..Dr Rajaee came back and said that the other doctor would be in the room but could not tell me for how long. I asked to speak with the other doctor, because I had gotten super nervous that what I was told was now changing real-time. Dr Rajaee returned and said if you are not comfortable or trusting of him and that the other doctor may not be in the room that we should cancel the surgery. I told him "This is not a trust issue" that I had questions and trust both of the doctors implicitly but wanted my questions answered. His response was "Clearly you do not trust me so I am canceling your surgery"! I have never in my life seen such an unprofessional approach from a doctor to a patient who was nervous purely because he was changing the game in the last few seconds. This was a MAJOR surgery and to be treated with such utter disrespect when all I had was questions is less than unprofessional, it is boarder line unethical. Be careful with this doctor and be sure you are getting what you are promised but he clearly has no concept of patient/doctor care. This was never a trust issue, I was nervous and just wanted answers.. read more

This is a fabulous surgeon. He performed a knee replacement for me 3 months ago with great success. Two weeks after surgery I was able to walk without a cane or walker. 6 weeks post op, my knee was almost normal. The whole team at Cedars was efficient, responsive and empathetic. The day of the surgery, the whole process was like a fine oiled machine. If you are looking for a surgeon who listens to you and does not push you into surgery (I had to talk Dr Rajaee into finally giving me a knee replacement) this is the man. I had seen 2 other surgeons prior to finding Dr Rajaee and they wanted to do surgery right away. I loved the fact that he was honest from the beginning. When the time is right I will go back for the other knee. read more

Dr. Rajaee is excellent in his patient care and skills! His office employees are caring and professional! I recovered from my hip replacement in 5 weeks with very little medication for pain. Communication was prompt and thorough at all times. I highly recommended Dr. Rajaee! read more

Happiness is a new left hip! I was very pleased with my total experience at Cedar Sinai/Ortho Center. Not only was I fortunate enough to be under the care, skill and expertise of Dr. Rajaee, but the entire office team, Jessica, Tracy, Dan Marcelino P.A. who took such great care during both pre-op and post-op. My healing has been faster and better than expected - only after 6 weeks! I highly recommend Dr.Rajaee for any hip and knee issues. Again my experience proved to be very positive and successful. Thank you again Dr. Rajaee! read more

Dr. Rajaee has replaced both of my hips over the course of the last year and I couldn't be happier with the results. I'm almost four months post-op from the second replacement and am walking better than I have in two years. I would trust him with any procedure I need completed in the future. Don't hesitate to take him on as your doctor. He's one of the great ones. read more

I'm so very lucky to have found Dr. Rajaee! I've been an orthopedic mess since I was a child and have had to have many surgeries and also have come across some pretty crappy and very pompous surgeons in my lifetime. Dr. Rajaee is just the best of the best, I had to have a 2nd hip revision surgery which is a very scary prospect in of itself and feeling confident in a surgeon is extremely important..... I was completely relieved to have found Dr. Rajaee, he's very patient and answered every question I had, addressed all of my concerns and explained everything, he gave me as much time as i needed and never rushed me out the door. My surgery ended up being more complex than expected and I'm so thankful that Dr. Rajaee and his skills were at the helm! I highly recommended him, he's everything a Dr. and surgeon should be! read more

Dr. Rajaee is a skilled and caring physician who I would recommend to others who are considering knee surgery. My grandma was advised to consider knee replacement surgery, but because of her fears around surgery she continued to refuse the procedure. Dr. Rajaee was very patient, understanding, and caring. He spent a lot of time talking to my grandma about her concerns and allowed her the time and space to make a decision. My grandma decided to do the knee replacement surgery, which was a success. Before the surgery, Dr. Rajaee's team (Jessica, Paulina, and Dan) was very thorough with explaining the details of the surgery, answering all questions we had. The care and treatment in the hospital was excellent, Dr. Rajaee visited daily and listened to my grandma's concerns while she was in the hospital and made sure she was well accommodated. She was able to start walking the day of the surgery and despite the post-op pain, she said she was in much less pain than prior to the surgery. It has now been about a week, and my grandma is eager to do her second knee replacement surgery with Dr. Rajaee. read more

Well where do I begin regarding my experience with Dr. Sean Rajaee and his Orthopedic talents! I originally set out with another healthcare service with an entirely different team of doctors that did not include Dr. Rajaee. The latter team was dismissive with regards to my safety and health, and didn't give me that reassurance I needed to feel prior to entering into a surgery such as hip replacement with CHF as an underlying condition. After securing cedars Sinai medical center as my healthcare provider, I selected a team of doctors to manage my health such as a primary care physician, a cardiologist, and electrophysiologist AND a Orthopedic specialists to perform my left hip replacement, which was Dr. Sean Rajaee! If you're looking for someone who is personable, professional, a master in his field, considerate, caring, sincere and pays attention to details; then Dr. Rajaee is Your Guy! And for the ladies he's easy on the eyes!. Additionally, Dr. Rajaee's assistant Daniel Alcantara PA-C Marcelino is A valuable addition to the care you will receive from Dr. Rajaee's office. He too is very knowledgeable with an aim to please attitude. All in all, you can't go wrong with this team for your Osteopathic needs and the Mastery of skills Dr. Rajaee displays. Hell, The incision itself from the hip surgery itself is almost and soon to be invisible. What more could a girl ask for!!!! I Highly recommend, and i am hard to Please ! read more

My wife has been suffering from rheumatoid arthritis for 21 years. At the beginning of 2020, the pain in her hip bone got worse and worse. Her rheumatoid doctor recommended getting a hip joint replacement surgery. We had to make sure we found a doctor who had a perfect record. I asked many friends and family members and finally found Dr. Rajaee, through a recommendation from a doctor who practiced at Harvard, Dr.Rajaee's website is very informative, so we were able to learn about the non-invasive hip joint replacement surgery that had a possible faster recovery time with less pain. Dr. Rajaee and his office staff are very friendly and nice. They explained the entire process in detail; we didn't have to worry about the process. As for Dr. Rajaee he is very clear in his explanations and descriptions, plus he really listens to his patient. He also paid detailed attention to both knees my wife is suffering as well from. My wife and I are so impressed with the whole experience. On surgery day, the Cedars Sinai hospital staff and Dr. Rajaees surgery team were incredibly nice and attentative. The surgery went well and she only needed to stay for one night and was able to come back home the next night. The recovery went as promised. On the fourth week, she was able to walk short distances without a cane. We believe that non-invasive methods--not cutting through muscles--help with a quick recovery. Now, three months later, she is walking without a cane. My wife and I strongly recommend Dr. Rajaee, for your hip joint replacement surgery. The whole experience was so wonderful. read more

Dr. Rajaee is an awesome Doctor. when I first visited Dr Rajaee from Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, CA., he immediately gave me hope on a bad situation. I had previously had a left knee replacement from another doctor six months earlier, that left me in pain and unable to move, and walked with a bad limp and I never felt like I was going to heal. After, several positive appointments, we scheduled a revision knee replacement surgery. On surgery day, I was extremely nervous, scared!! But Dr Rajaee and his staff were comforting and kind. The surgery took about five hours and when I woke up, I felt like a new person with very little pain. I was able to stand that evening and it felt amazing. I am now two months in from the surgery and I am able to walk without a cane or walker, I can go up and downstairs easily. I can now drive. I can bend my knee to 105 degrees and I can straighten without problems. It is a truly miracle. I am so grateful to have met and allowed Dr Rajaee to fix my horrible bad knee. I thank God for him, because I truly felt like I was stuck in a rut forever. I promise you, if you need help with your knees, please call him first. You'll be totally grateful like me. read more

Dr Rajaee is a top rated physician for a reason, he is the best at what he does. He spends more than ample time explaining your options and answering questions and concerns. I also appreciate the fact that he tried alternative treatments before recommending surgery. I've just had a partial knee replacement, 3 weeks post, and I am ahead of schedule in terms of where most people are at this point. Dr Rajaee and his team go above and beyond, are caring, professional and efficient. I highly recommend him. read more

After four years of adjusting to a life of pain and inconvenience I decided to get an MRI and the results were what I had feared all along. My hip had degenerated leaving me no choice but to put my life as knew it in the hands of a complete stranger, my life-altering surgeon Dr. Sean Rajaee. From the week leading up to my first office visit to elevator ride up to the sixth floor was a challenge driven by anxiety but the minute Dr. Rajaee entered the room my posture and position welcomed the idea of a hip-replacement due to his genuine and sincere disposition. Now, I'm not gonna lie. From the moment I saw this young handsome doctor, I thought no f__cking way is he cutting me open but after a couple of visits my ebb and flow of anxiety had subsided because of the confidence he instilled in me and my ability to recover. The thought of losing apart of yourself is a scary thing and I felt like I had completely betrayed my body, my temple, the shell that held up for the past fifty years could longer sustain itself without professional help. Upon arrival at Cedars-Sinai I was greeted by a wonderful staff that were thoughtful and funny which was very relaxing right up to surgery and the next thing I knew, I was awake asking had the surgery been performed and she replied "Yes, it was a success," and I went back to sleep. Shortly after my nap, Dr. Rajaee paid me a visit and reassured me that surgery was a success and not worry and explained to me what to expect during post operation and if ever I had any concerns to call him. I did and they were there for me. Three weeks later I am no longer using that sexy walker and I'm walking on my own. I am very very very thankful for Dr. Rajaee and how he continues to help me regain the confidence and trust it takes to renew my temple that I felt I betrayed. DUDE! THANK YOU read more

Excellent well trained professional at a great institution Cedars-Sinai. Highly recommend.

Dr. Rajaee Review July 5, 2020 My path to Dr. Rajaee's door was a long journey and I'm glad that I stuck it out. 39 years ago I was hit, run over and dragged by a truck in New York City. As a result of the accident I had a prosthetic implanted 37 years ago. Many doctors didn't want to put a prosthesis in a 25 year old man...and those that entertained doing the procedure, wouldn't use the new/experimental implement out of Germany. The prosthetic out of Germany was porous with an incongruent surface so that the patient's own bone would grow to it and through it to secure it in place. After searching up and down the eastern seaboard I finally found a surgeon that would do the procedure for me. When the prosthetic was inserted 37 years ago I was told it would last around 10 years. It did real well up until about 10 - 12 years ago. Then my own bone started cracking around the prosthesis. The pain became more and more severe as more bone continued to crack. So after 35 years, I started a concerted search on the west coast for an Orthopedic Surgeon that would take on an extremely complicated "hip revision." Hip replacements are rather common today, but revisions are not. And revisions replacing the type prosthesis I had inserted, are very rare. I met with/interviewed some 41 orthopedic surgeons prior to meeting Dr. Rajaee. Many turned me down because they had never seen the type of prosthesis I had in me and felt they weren't qualified to perform the complicated procedure...and many more failed to instill in me the confidence that they were up to the task. I must admit, I was anticipating "greatness" when I was to have my first meeting with Dr. Rajaee. He came highly recommended by two other surgeons that I knew well and trusted (yes they both turned down my case because they did not feel they were up to the task in their senior years). The moment Dr. Rajaee stepped into the room I was filled with confidence. It was quite obvious that he had read my case history; not just orthopedically...everything. His reference to specific dates, specific previous procedures and maladies were dead on right. His knowledge of his chosen discipline was and is quite voluminous. His patience in answering each and every question I had was rather welcoming. He exudes knowledge and confidence, peppered with a healthy dose of empathy. The care I have received from Dr. Rajaee and his entire team at Cedars Sinai Orthopedic Center has been exemplary. Each and every person on the team is a rock star. The care I have received as a patient at Cedars Sinai's entire facility is second to none...and I've been a patient of many a fine medical facilities. This is the second major surgery I've had in six months at Cedar's (the first was open heart surgery) and I have been treated with the utmost care each time. I can not recommend Dr. Rajaee, his team and the team at Cedars Sinai highly enough. I am indebted to them for their fine care of me. Scott Valentine read more

I I served 21 years in the United States Navy as a SeaBee in a Combat Construction unit as a builder and I had to have a hip replacement done. So came here to Cedars Sinai to have my surgery. I was Seen by Dr. Sean Rajaee and he has done a wonderful job with my new hip replacement. I'd like to thank you Dr. Rajaee for relieving my pain and giving me a new hip. read more

Last year was my husband's medical annus horribilis which culminated in his falling, breaking his hip, but not before being sent home the day of the fall because the hairline fracture wasn't evident in X-ray. The 5 weeks which followed were filled with pain and confusion due to other medical issues he was experiencing at the same time. Finally, when he could no longer take the pain, we went to Emergency at Cedars and were informed he had been living with a broken hip for over a month, and he was promptly admitted to the hospital for the fifth time last year. The stellar Orthopaedic team at Cedars said hip replacement was in order and understood that we wanted to do the procedure as soon as possible given the circumstances. Dr. Rajaee was highly recommended by the staff, and we were duly impressed by both his background and his enthusiasm, specifically when it came to hip replacement. My husband was still recovering from back surgery and other medical issues, but Dr. Rajaee was confident he could operate without complications. Dr. Rajaee conferred with his other doctors and scheduled the procedure the morning after we met him. Dr. Rajaee explained the procedure prior to surgery and provided a re-cap in Post op, showed us the "After" X-rays and discussed therapeutic options. His extraordinary surgical skills are matched by his kindness and ability to listen. My husband felt immediate relief - while he was still in Recovery no less, and his hip continues to improve with every month that passes. It is truly our good fortune to have had Dr. Rajaee perform this procedure, and we are grateful beyond measure. read more
