“Dr. Das was very impressive. It takes a lot to earn my respect and trust, and this mans depth of knowledge, approach in explaining my health issues and laying out my options in a 30-minute visit was exceptional. Most professionals are bored with their craft, can’t express empathy and have lost the passion so desperately required to be successful in medicine indeed. I’m delighted, no luck, to have Dr. Das guiding me through this challenging time.”

Dr. Das then had x-rays taken we’re by when they processed he showed me and explained the areas where I might be having problems. He suggested a treatment which I allowed and will see him in six weeks and if the problem still persists we would talk about alternate ways of handling the problem area. Great job thank you, and I would also like to say that the staff was friendly and professional.”

“Dr. Das was the first surgeon to actually listen to the issues I was having with my hips. I had seen 3 other physicians that ignored my pain and didn't look into the matter any further. I drive the 4 hours to see Dr. Das, who then explained to me what was wrong and walked me through what was going to happen next. I had surgery on my right hip in April and I have been amazed at the difference in my quality of life. Dr. Das has been thorough and professional every single time I have seen him. His assistant, Debbie, is caring and fantastic with any and all questions I have had along the way. I would drive 30+ hours if I had to, that's how great my experience with Dr. Das has been.”
