Dr Ansari repaired my left shoulder 2 years ago with great success. Now I am scheduled for repairing my right shoulder. Though I am not looking forward to the recovery,I am certain the results will once again be positive. In addition to a great surgeon, he surrounds himself with an outstanding staff!!!

Surgery went well, we were told exactly what to expect. The staff in the Cumming office are very nice and do not mind spending time with you so you are well informed and ready for surgery and therapy. Highly recommend this office and Dr. Arsari.

Dr. Ansari is very personable, caring and attentive. He listened to our questions and was happy to answer them. He seemed genuinely excited to tell me that I don’t need surgery and that we would treat my broken shoulder with non surgical methods
