"I owe my life to Dr. Navasartian. In September 2023, I developed an extremely painful and swollen shoulder, which would ultimately reveal itself as a once-in-history case: a rare strep infection with a staggering 95% mortality rate. Dr. Navasartian, after assessing my symptoms and reviewing an MRI, immediately recognized the severity of my condition and directed me to the emergency room. Within moments, he performed a procedure to relieve the unbearable pressure in my shoulder, allowing it to drain for nearly 30 minutes. His quick action led to an immediate, life-saving surgery where he meticulously cleaned out the infection.
From that point on, for 28 critical days in the hospital, Dr. Navasartian took command of every detail of my care. Each night, he researched tirelessly, collaborating with the infectious disease team to explore every possible avenue for my recovery. There was a point where I felt only hours away from a grim outcome, but Dr. Navasartian’s dedication, relentless pursuit of solutions, and deep compassion kept me going. His determination was contagious, inspiring the entire care team. I can confidently say he saved my life multiple times during that critical period.
Over the past year, Dr. Navasartian has continued to monitor my recovery with the same exceptional commitment, ensuring my health every step of the way. He is, without a doubt, a gift from God. His skill, care, and unwavering support have given me a second chance at life, and I will be forever grateful. Dr. Navasartian belongs on the Mount Rushmore of orthopedic surgeons, and I believe he is one of the best surgeons in the world — his work is beyond that of any ordinary mortal."

Went to several othros and all wanted to replace my knee without questions. Dr Bakhos was very realistic and said if the symptoms were not too bad I really did not need a replacement and could continue to get along with cortisone shots a couple times a year as needed. Since I remain very active, this seems like very good advice.

I just had my two-week follow up visit with Dr. Borzio following a total hip replacement due to a fracture from a fall. I don't think I've ever had an experience at a doctor's office like the one I had at the Orthocenter yesterday. I walked in for my appointment and was immediately sent for an x-ray, didn't even have a chance to sit down in the waiting room. Following the x-ray I was sent to an examination room, and was immediately seen by Dr. Borzio. He and his entire staff are professional, efficient, and friendly. It is a testament to Dr. Borzio's skill as a surgeon that I was up and on my feet a day after the surgery, and a little over two weeks in am able to walk around practically unassisted (although relying on a cane for balance). I am so grateful to Dr. Borzio and his staff and would highly recommend them for any of your orthopedic needs!

To Whom it may concern,
I was recently seen at RMC-ER for an acute flare-up of a chronic shoulder injury that I have had for years. I have seen other specialists in the past for this problem, but I was given misinformation.
I was directed to see Dr Navasartian for a follow-up to my emergency room visit. He is a terrific man and wonderful specialist. He spent an hour explaining to my girlfriend and I what my problem is and what my options are for treating it. The options were not exactly what I wanted to hear but at least I left his office knowing what must be done and why.
After my visit I felt like I hit the game winning home- run having chosen him as my specialist. I will highly recommend him to anyone who has shoulder issues and I will be forever grateful for having been put into his care.
Sincerely,
Jeffrey Johnson

Dr. Bakhos has the best bedside manners of any doctor I have ever been to see. He is very patient, answers every question, does not rush you and makes you feel very comfortable. I am very lucky to have had him do my hip replacement. i was driving in less than 2 weeks. My pain level was very small 2 days after surgery.

Dr Costa performed my knee surgery in April 2024 to correct 58 years of bone on bone damage caused when all my torn cartiledge (and possibly the ACL) were completely removed back in the 1965 era with nothing done to replace it at the time. The lower leg below the knee was rotated severly with a very noticeable bowlegged result combined with significant bone wear in the knee joint, causing the side ligaments to be acutetly stretched. I now have a properly aligned lower and upper leg. Starting the day after surgery i used the ROM bike, and at day 5 commenced walking leading up to 800+ yards daily by the end of week 2 without notable pain and great stability. Dr Costa has a wonderful patient relationship which created my confidence in getting the sugery done. I am so glad that I did as it has changed my life. Dr Costa also previously performed knee surgery for my wife and after 3 weeks she had no pain, full range of motion and no rehab needed. As a reult, we view Dr Costa as an honorary family member and recomend that he be canonized to commemorate his wonderful gift to people in need of the very best knee surgeon on the planet. Our absolute highest recommendation.

Dr. Costa is an extraordinary doctor/surgeon. He performed my bilateral hip replacement with amazing results. I had the miracle of mobility the same day as the surgery after needing a cane to walk prior to that. He is very knowledgeable, kind, and compassionate.
He is currently treating my knees and will absolutely be replacing my knees when necessary. Dr. Costa is definitely the gift that keeps on giving!
