Brett Wasserlauf, MD

[Highly satisfied with] Doctors attention to detail.

08/16/2019

Dr. Wasserlauf wants to be cautious because in addition to breaking my shoulder, I also fractured a vertebrae in my neck. He clearly answered all my questions.

08/14/2019

All the staff was friendly and welcoming and reassuring. Sheren and Kristin prepared me very well. Another staff person fitted me for my sling and showed us how to put it on. Dr. Wasserlauf was clear, concise and reassuring. [Single best thing is...] Testing the shoulder day after operation with sling off doing exercises. Very grateful and pleased with outcome!

[Single best thing is...] Not only was Dr. Wasserlauf concerned about my orthopedic progress but instructed me in overall conditioning needed to return to my sport.

From beginning to end my experience with Dr. Wasserlauf has been wonderful. He was very honest and up front with me about what the outcome might be after another surgery. Dr. Wasserlauf took a poorly repaired knee and repaired it so I have no pain or swelling. Everyone tells me I'm walking better than before the accident! Dr. Wasserlauf really knows what he is doing and I would highly recommend him to anyone needing surgery on their knees. Dr. Wasserlauf was very cautious and didn't rush the rehabilitation. I'm not the most patient person in the world, but I'm glad he put the brakes on me and let the knee heal slowly.

05/14/2019

Very professional. No wait.

05/10/2019

Doctor clearly explained the cause of my knee problem, showed me the x-rays and ultrasound, and explained my options for treatment. When I walked in I had a lot of pain and swelling, doctor removed the fluid and gave me an injection and when I left knee seemed 100% better.

07/08/2018

It amazes me that one little shot stopped the pain and it only took a few days to take effect. I had been in pain and not able to move my shoulder 100% for 6 months. During my first visit I had been provided a shot of cortisone in my shoulder because I was diagnosed with frozen shoulder. In a couple of days I had no pain where prior to that I had been in pain for 6 months. This was my follow-up visit and I told him I didn't have any pain. He had me do a series of movements with my arms and he advised that I still didn't have full range of motion which made sense. He provided that I should have physical therapy. I really didn't want to go to PT because I have before, about 20 years ago for my foot, and it never helped. But I went over and I set up appointments with the physical therapist across the hall from dr. Wasserlauf and they have actually been helping so I'm glad that I followed his advice and got the PT, I have a follow up scheduled in Aug. For him to reevaluate my range of motion.
