Dr Ryu does everything possible to make sure the procedure goes perfectly; from preparation through surgery to recovery his no-nonsense professionalism is spot-on. I am indebted to Dr Ryu for the great procedure on my shoulder; 12 months later and feel 100%!
Dr. Ryu is the most unprofessional doctor I have seen. He wrote a scathing report about me personally after my visit several years ago. It was a personal attack on me and in writing no less. He needs to go back to medical school and learn bed side manners when asked a question and learn how to write a proper report of a patient without personal attacks.
One of the ansolute best doctors in his profession!
Over the past couple of decades I was able to alleviate the pain in my non dominant shoulder with proper PT exercises, Advil and ice until just recently when the pain presented on a constant chronic basis. Fortunately I was able to get in to see Dr. Ryu for an evaluation. Following a thorough exam and MRI it was determined that I had a complex tear of the rotator cuff tendon with portions of the tear exhibiting full thickness retraction, along with a bone spur to aggravate things even further. In other words it was a really ... read more
Awesome! He is very professional and gets to the point!
I destroyed my left shoulder rotator cuff after an accidental fall. Dr. Ryu at our first meeting seemed less than willing to want me as a patient based on the severe damage done to my left shoulder rotator cuff. He kept advising that the process/recovery could be painful and that the final result would not make my shoulder 100% as it was prior to my fall. He was very straight forward, not overly friendly. Doing my due diligence I consulted with another orthopedic surgeon who was well known for taking care of most of the sout... read more
If you want a surgeon who knows what he is doing Ryu is the guy for arthoscopic knee repairs. He will tell you what he can do to help you and if you follow his post op instructions to the letter, you will be well on your way to getting back to your pre-injury activities! He replaced a torn ACL and not only was my post op phase near painless, his very exact instructions paid off and I was back to spin classes, hiking, and exercise in about 5 months. Very happy -cheers to healthy knees and amazing surgical outcomes by Dr. Ryu ... read more
My knee was so bad I couldn't kneel without pain so I went to see Dr. Ryu. He examined me and his diagnoses was right on and after the MRI conformation he suggested repairing my knee and after three weeks I am back to normal with no pain or problems. Dr. Ryu is the best in his field and well worth the wait.
Dr. Ryu needs to go back to Medical School and learn about better bed side manner with patients.
