    Rasmussen J Linda, MD - Day 7...look! I can stand up and hold my sight on surgery leg!!

    This is a look back of my partial knee replacement of my right leg since 7 years ago. Although I…read morewas 69 years old, the recovery speed was quite good. I felt very weak on my first day and only able to walk about 20 feet. But I felt no pains on day 1 and spent first night in the Castle hospital with sound sleep. On second day I felt much better and continued to be pain free. Walk about 150 feet and attend the lunch meeting with other patients to share post op experiences. I worked with the resident physical therapist and easily reached ROM at 90 degree, then I made my first mistake to accept the urge from p. t. to continue increasing the bending angle to 98 degrees. I felt a sharp pain and injured something I thought. This injury might cause excessive swearing of my knee. At 3 pm, I was sent back to home. Since I did not feel much pains, I did not take pain medicine after returning home. This is my second mistake. I felt very sharp pains after mid night. Then I started taking pain medicine, but it was too late. Pains came like waves and I could not sleep anymore. My stomach got very upset from Oxycodone, so I switched to less effective drug tramadol which only partially block my pains. On day 5, the pains subsided a lot so that I stop taking prescribed pain medicine. Only took tylenol before knee bending exercises. The first two weeks I did not push myself too much as my leg excessive swelling was hard for me to bend too much. After 4 weeks p. t., my ROM was only 100. After 8 weeks, ROM was about 115 and I stopped going to p. t. sessions. I continued to do home exercises to bend my knees. Eventually I got ROM 120 after 5 years post op. A very long journey but I am very happy and grateful to Dr. Rasmussen. After 3 weeks post op, I could drive and walked without assistance to do my daily activities such as shopping or going to beaches. However, I experienced some pains deep inside my knee for a very long time if I walked more than one mile. Dr. Rasmussen thought this pain was caused by scar tissues inside my knee. Luckily the scar tissue problem suddenly disappeared after 5 years. Before the surgery, I asked Dr. Rasmussen, what is the success rate of a knee replacement? She replied to me, 100% success rate from me. Her confidence gave me comfort and calm feeling. Indeed, if you have a healthy body and prepare yourself with pre op exercises, you have nothing to worry about. Please trust Dr. Rasmussen and having a peaceful mind is also very important for a speedy recovery.

    20 years ago Dr Rasmussen performed a full hip replacement on me, at the time I was a 50yo male in…read moregood physical shape. I recovered quite quickly and never had any problems. Circumstances returned me Happily to Oahu where I got the opportunity to see Linda again for the other hip. Absolutely changed my life at 69. It has been 8 weeks since my surgery and I am able to work out again, swim with no pain. I know it sounds silly, but just going for a walk without pain is beyond words for people who know. I would SO recommend Dr. Rasmussen (and her team at Castle). I know there are many Orthopedic Surgeons out there, but when you find one that is this good all I can say is THANK YOU.

    I had an appointment with Doctor Bossian in the Kailua branch and he is by far the nicest doctor I…read morehave ever had! He was so patient and gave me his time to address any concerns I had. I went in for an annual checkup and was not expecting a sincere doctor who cared to talk through any little or small concerns! And since he was asking so sincerely, I did end up talking with him about a few other medical issues that I wasn't going to bring up. Ended up getting a few answers and a diagnosis that have helped me since. He also has a great way of explaining things in layman's terms without it being condescending. Overall a great experience and I thank him and the staff at Kailua for being on my care team! I wanted to provide a review of my recent two experiences at the Kailua Straub Clinic because when reading the negative reviews on here, it was not the same experience that I encountered. The staff at the front and in the back were wonderful, patient, kind, and caring. I also thought it was great that their lab has saturday open hours which is very helpful if you don't have time during a weekday to complete lab work! Another plus is parking is convenient and plenty either in their plaza or nearby.

    After seeing an orthopedist in town and being told I needed to have physical therapy, I was really…read moresurprised to learn that I could get PT at the little Straub clinic in Kailua. Score! It's walking distance from my work, and I wouldn't have to take over an hour of time off for round-trip transportation into town for PT. Granted, there are physical therapists right in my office building, but my doc from Straub recommended his own PT...and since the PT specialist had attended my doctor's appointment, I felt like he was the best option. At any rate, the Kailua Family Health Center, where the Straub PT is located, is a bright, cheery office located above Red Bamboo and other retail stores right in the heart of Kailua Town. It's been very peaceful and quiet every time I was there for PT, and all of the front desk ladies were so nice and friendly It's clean, clean, clean, and did I mention convenient? I don't have a lot of doctors who practice at Straub, but if you do and live on the Windward side, see if you can get your services taken care of at this place!

    My experience with this dr is horrible. I waited too long so I had to take my pain killer which is…read moreOpioids. The assistant I gave her my medical records that I brought myself including dr Kurano report but she said she had enough records which I noticed is from the insurance. It was all negative reports From previous PT from Malakai O Malama that I don't need pt . But the new Pt I was going with at premier medical group in Kaneohe was much better. They have all kinds of machines such as traction etc compared with the former which I choose for convenience because it's not even a block from where I live. That was a big mistake Back to dr report there are some errors like I got my MA degree wrong it's BA. I have Cirrhosis wrong I had Cyst on my liver. Then dr Kurano who specialized in RA told me I need to see physiatrist but his report that my injury originated from Arthritis and he couldn't tell if it came from work since I told him my mother have arthritis in her hand. The injury came from carrying 8 hours of carrying heavy stuff for three straight days and got aggravated twice. The third one landed me with emergency because the Janitor did not put a signage wet floor and the it was soaking wet which did not even squeeze the rug. I jerk my body to avoid falling. I could have died. Anyway, physiatrist recommended PRP but this dr against it because it's not have fda approval. In the meantime it was being used by a lot of dr as technology developed. Anyway,The assistant asked my documents and then told me that "Oh Im glad I have made copies " but only a few. It will give you a rating but reports seemed to favor insurance carrier to save some money. I learned so much about the dark side of IME. Some lawyers called them Insurance Medical Exam instead of independent. So now the insurance are using the report against me. This is the third IME I had.!The one I googled and had a bad comment which my lawyer able to changed. The second it was use four times because three times 0 ratings and insurance loves it. The fourth is 5 rating but only lumbar not thoracic. Finally, I got 5 with this dr but report is different than the last one. When I googled this dr Endicott he had one star rating and asked my lawyer to go to another dr in Honolulu club his name is Dr Peter Diamond my friend went there he received a report he deserved And I heard he have excellent reputation but my lawyer said he can't do anything because the insurance recommended it unless I have to pay my own which could cost up to $5,000.
