I am writing this review 2 weeks after my rotator cuff surgery. The doctor went out of her way to…read moreshow care and concern for my condition before and after the surgery. While I am not qualified to comment on the quality of her work during surgery (and I was anesthetized while that was being done anyway) her reputation as a surgeon is tremendous. I will try to remember to revise this review when I get six months out from surgery but, so far, (knock wood) I could not be happier. I know some people have expressed difficulties with her staff. Like any Doctor who is considered to be at the top of their field, you are going to wait a while. Otherwise, I found the pre surgery process to be reasonably organized and far from onerous. I will try to remember to come back in six months an add to this review but, so far, I am very thankful that Doctor Laroque sas my surgeon.

Dr. Wardwell and his team stands out as one of the most brilliant, innovative, honest and effective…read moredoctors I have seen in my life. He was highly recommended to me by my acupuncturist who has seen him several times for therapies to heal long standing back and neck injuries. Dr. Wardell has an extremely impressive and well rounded background and education which enables him to understand underlying issues and causes in a way that most doctors do not. I have recommended him to so many people who have chronic illnesses and pain/injuries who are unable to get relief by traditional methods (cortisone injections, PT, surgery). Not only does he have a deep understanding of any medical issues I've asked him about, his approach is always focused on getting to the true cause and healing them vs a band-aid approach used by so many doctors. His treatments / approach are all quite reasonably priced and has helped people avoid major surgeries that would be much more costly and not actually fixing the underlying problem or condition. I feel that Dr. Wardwell has a strong sense of integrity and ethics and treats his patients with genuine respect, never pushing profit over the best interest is his patients. I have been trying to recover from a severe case of Bells Palsy 7 years ago which I was told by some of the top doctors in the field that I would never be able to heal from it, and the only options were Botox and invasive surgery in my face. I'm so thankful that I have found PRP (plasma rich protein injections, same used in "vampire facials") therapy with Dr. Wardwell which has already healed and improved my symptoms in 3-4 months post PRP therapy. My other doctor who has been treating me, who is the head of plastic surgery at Stanford, was amazed as the most recent progress and never heard of PRP being used to to treat Bells Palsy, which is quite sad. I'm getting the word out. If you are looking for a doctor who will truly get to the bottom of your condition and treat you with the utmost care and respect, I highly recommend Dr. Wardwell. Randy on his team is also very welcoming and accommodating whenever possible. Do not hesitate to schedule a consult if you're thinking about it! You won't regret it.

Dr Wardwell is a magician. I came to Dr. Wardwell after dealing with achilles pain for 7 years. I'd…read moresee at 4 different doctors and most just told me to rest it or do PT - neither of which were a long-term solution to the pain. Within 5min of being at Dr. Wardwell's practice, he had imaged my achilles via ultrasound, diagnosed it as partially torn and had a proposed treatment plan - PRP and stem cell injections for my back, achilles and foot. He doesn't just treat the injury, but treats the full body, focusing on the the root cause to prevent re-injury. 4mo later - I'm back to running and am not limited in any activity. More importantly, I'm not hobbling out of bed every morning (which previously, I was resigned to doing for the rest of my life). I'm so appreciative for Dr Wardwell and the huge quality of life he has given to me. Also shoutout to Randy, who runs the office and is such a pleasure.

Crystal, my physical therapist, was amazing. She spent 30-40 minutes each session assessing my progress, working on what needed attention, and what exercises would be best givien how I was feeling since our last session. She modified my exercises with the physical therapist aides for every session to maximize the areas of need to accelerate my recovery. The physical therapist aides were also great. Each aide provided 1-on-1 attention to walk through each exercise. Many were also working toward getting their own physical therapy degrees. The front desk is one of the most friendly and competent front desks I've come across anywhere. In addition, they also provide a 24/7 full service customer portal with a wide range of online services above the usual invoice payments and insurance details. You could cancel or reschedule your appointments in real time, send messages or ask questions, check your upcoming scheduled appointments, and more. You can also subscribe and sync to your own calendar (Google, Apple, etc.) which will sync new and updated appointment details along with physical therapist name, date and time. There's really no need to call to make changes unless you want to talk with someone. I highly recommend this place if you need quality physical therapy care.

I appreciate Dr. Akizuki's willingness to investigate possible reasons for the pain, rather than telling me it's just something I will have to live with. Although pain management may end up the sole recourse, I value his thorough approach, which builds trust. Everyone I have worked with in his office (Claire, Alyssa, and Katlyn--so far) has been unfailingly kind and professional. As a team, they inspire confidence.

See below for images showing my clavicle before and after Akizuki's surgery. The "after" image…read morereveals what multiple surgeons have described an unnecessary and irregular bone resection. One renowned surgeon who reviewed the case stated: "The x-rays show no reason to do a distal clavicle excision and what he did was scallop your bone. I would never do this to a patient." When I confronted Akizuki about the damage and injury, he denied any responsibility and claimed that my body must have somehow spontaneously eroded the bone on its own, an explanation that is medically implausible. This outcome was never discussed or consented to. It reflects a profound lack of surgical judgment and care. I continue to suffer pain and shoulder dysfunction as a direct result. This was only one of a number of unnecessary procedures that he messed up. Since my procedure, I've learned that I am not alone. There are multiple ongoing lawsuits and medical board complaints alleging fraudulent and negligent behavior by Akizuki. Feel free to DM me to join a group of angry patients eager to make sure he poses a danger to no one else.

He exchanged the plastic liner with one 2 sizes smaller, removed part of the meniscus that was not removed during the knee replacement, and removed scar tissue. Within a few days I was amazed at how great I felt! I'm now six weeks post-op with no pain, bend to 120 degrees, fully straight, and no swelling.

I've been a GSports patient for two chronic injuries 10 years apart, and I highly recommend GSports…read morebased on my experience. My first injury was a stubborn and very painful foot problem (posterior tibial tendinopathy) that left me hobbling around for a year and a half. I started physical therapy basically out of desperation, but after about 4 months with G Sports, I was completely recovered, was able to return to my prior level of physical activity and exercise, and have not had an issue with foot since. My PT for this injury was Dr. Justin Jellin, who was outstanding. More recently, I came back for a hip problem that didn't improve at all after 6 months of trying to manage it on my own. The injury was bad enough that I had significant trouble driving and doing basic household chores. I have young kids, so I do a fair amount of driving and picking-stuff-up, so it's hard for me to overstate how irritating this injury was. I started working with Dr. Gee in May 2026, who has also been outstanding, and have made a significant recovery so far. In addition to creating a great rehab routine, Dr. Gee has been using shockwave therapy to help with my recovery. It's hard for me to know how much of my current recovery is due to the exercises I've been instructed to do vs the shockwave treatment, since I'm doing both concurrently, but I did notice a huge improvement in my symptoms immediately after the first shockwave treatment. After 3 months, I've gone from significant and constant pain to more like on-and-off local irritation (I'm often pain free for several days in a row). I'm back to driving and my normal daily activities without problems. I'm still making noticeable progress every week and hope to get back to my prior exercise routine in the next few months. The office/front desk team has also been great. They're incredibly friendly and have been extremely helpful when I've had to make changes to my rehab schedule. Overall, I highly recommend GSports for physical therapy. At this point, if I have another injury in the future, I wouldn't even consider going anywhere else.
