Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Safran is amazing
I had a visit with Dr. Safran. He went above and beyond to help figure out what my issue was. He took the time to explain the issue which was particularly difficult to diagnose and most importantly, proposed thoughtful options which ultimately led to my hip impingement being fixed. Thank you Dr. Safran!

I had my 4th hip arthroscopy with Dr Safran. I felt that doing a 4 hip arthroscopy after 3 failed attempts was insane, but he talked me into doing it. The arthrogram showed a diminutive labrum. I had severe instability and pain. He made no attempt to fix the labrum and came up with a bogus AAIS diagnosis. It did not work at all, and I chose to have THR ASAP after his failed surgery. THR gave great results. I skipped revision arthroscopy on the other hip as I knew the results would be unsatisfactory. With THR in both hips life is back to normal. The THR results would have been even better if it were not for the damage done in arthroscopy.
