I was referred to Dr. Nawab by another orthopaedic doctor, which says a lot for him. Dr. Nawab did a partial knee replacement and cleaned up the arthritis in my knee. From 1st visit to last everything went smooth. It was outpatient surgery which I was happy about. The recovery was really good. The first week was kind of rough but it rapidly got easier. Used a walker @ 1 week, then a cane for few weeks, started therapy in home for 2 weeks then therapy at their location.

Dr. Nawab was extremely helpful and caring. He has a great personality and cares so much about his patients. I would recommend him to my closest friends and family! Thank you Dr. Nawab!

I started experiencing knee problems back in early March 2017 during football conditioning. I saw the doctor and he recommended me to Dr. Nawab. I explained what I was feeling in my knee to Dr. Nawab and he knew right away what was wrong, I had OCD. He performed 2 surgeries on my knee, one arthoscopic and one open surgery. Each of my surgeries went exceptionally well and I progressed and recovered very fast. He took very good care of me and I had no problems at all after any of my sugreries.

Dr. Nawab did two partial knee replacements for me. I had one in November and six weeks later had the second one done. That was two years ago and both knees are doing great. I am walking without pain, I don't take ibuprophren anymore. I would highly recommend this type of procedure if Dr. Nawab thinks this is the way to go. Don't be afraid of a partial because it works and recovery time is short..

Dr. Nawab is the best orthopedic knee doctor I have seen. I have had 14 surgeries over the last 20 years and I thought I would never thought I would go longer than 2 years without a surgery. He provided me with a diagnosis that not other doctor had even mentioned and helped me avoid knee replacement at a young age. After my surgery with him I doing things I never thought I would do again. He was honest and extremely caring, his bedside manner is second to none. He is the best!

I started having knee problems in April, 2016. By Feb. 2017, I had already had a partial knee replacement and I was walking 4 miles a day. In August 2016, Dr. Ellis said I was a prime candidate for partial knee replacement. I then went to Dr. Nawab and we scheduled surgery for Dec. 8, 2016. I just returned from my one year appointment, and Dr. Nawab said my xrays looked great. I am so glad that I did not have the full knee replacement. Recovery time is almost cut in half with a partial.

Dr.Nawab and his staff are the best! He's a very wise, articulate,kind and patient doctor. Answers all your questions thoroughly. He gave us every confidence we chose the right doctor for my husband's knee replacement.
