"There really are no words to describe the exceptional care that I received with Dr. Harpreet Basran and his staff. Dr. Basran and I have established a wonderful rapport with one another from the beginning. I have been able to share wonderful stories of my family with him as well as not so wonderful. He listened very patiently and compassionately when I told him about the death of my father. He also listened patiently and very happily when I told him about the wedding of one of my sons the engagement of the another son and the upcoming birth of our first grandchild! He is truly a gem amongst gems! I just had my six week post-op for my second shoulder surgery and you can always tell with him that his response is incredibly genuine and how happy he is with your recovery! He is always incredibly thorough with all of my exams as well. You never leave there with a question in your mind about how you were doing. I will not go anywhere else for myself or my family whenever we need orthopedic care! Every member of the staff is friendly professional and kind! And when you are uncomfortable and in pain that is the most wonderful welcome ever! When someone treats you patiently and kindly and compassionately when you are in pain. I recommend Dr. Basran to absolutely everybody! I really cannot thank him enough for getting me through 2020 with two shoulder surgeries! He is absolutely the most wonderful doctor ever!" – Cat C.
