Patient Testimonials
My son, Wes broke his wrist about a month ago and we were referred to your
clinic in Katy, specifically Dr. Motamedi. We have never visited such a friendly
doctor's office (and with three children we have visited numerous clinics).
Everyone from the check-in/check-out clerk, the cast technician, to Dr. Motamedi
was smiling, enthusiastic, and friendly. Wes and I both left the clinic in a
good mood with smiles on our faces just from being around such nice people,
something quite rare when leaving the doctor with a child with a broken
bone.
We returned to the clinic last week and Wed had his cast removed
and his wrist x-rayed. Wes commented "Everyone seems to really enjoy their job
there. Even the x-ray guy was smiling and that has to be a pretty boring job!"
quite the comment for a normally disgruntled 15 year old teenager. Please inform
your staff in the clinic of their outstanding patient service!

Wow, it's been 7 years
since you performed the ACL Alograft surgery on my knee. I do have to admit I
was skeptical however, I am playing soccer at full speed, I've ran 6k marathons
in 42 minutes, I'm a third degree black belt teaching in my own dojo...
(lashorei.org) and I owe it all to your ability.
I truly wish that you
remained in Los Angeles but nonetheless thank you. At least now I know where to
go if I need work done.

My right shoulder was in constant pain and I could not raise my arm above my
head without excruciating pain. Dr. Motamedi diagnosed me as having subacromial
bursitis / supraspinatus tendinitis. He gave me a corticosteroid injection in my
shoulder and I have returned to completely normal function without pain.
The staff at Richmond Bone & Joint Clinic was very friendly and helpful.
The office was very organized which made for a very smooth and efficient
visit.
Dr Motamedi had a great bedside manner and was very easy to talk
to. He explained possible diagnoses, discussed potential treatment options, and
what he would like me to do should I not improve. I did, however, improve very
quickly and have Dr Motamedi to thank!
