Sandeep Mannava, MD, PhD

We brought our 16-year-old son — the captain of his baseball team — to this practice based on a family recommendation. The evaluation process stretched from June until October, when an MRI was finally approved and revealed a torn labrum that had occurred months earlier. We are grateful that the surgical repair itself went well. However, the delay in reaching a clear diagnosis means he will miss his senior baseball season — something that can never be replaced for a young athlete and his family. If your goal is a timely diagnosis and a clear path back to competitive sports, I would encouragefamilies to carefully evaluate all of their options and consider seeking care from practices that move more decisively with imaging and treatment planning. In our experience, waiting too long for answ

After 2 other surgeons tried to repair my shoulder unsuccessfully Dr. Mannava did a full shoulder replacement. I have better use of it than I have had in at least 6 years. I am back to nearly full range of motion and had little to no pain or discomfort during recovery. I will never let anyone else work on my shoulders or arms. It was truly life changing. Do yourself a favor and don't put off getting the treatment you need from him. He is clear friendly and honest. He fully involves you in all treatment options. He is far and away my favorite doctor

I went to Dr Mannava with some knee pain years after having meniscus surgery (that he did not do). An MRI showed another tear, yet due to my pain symptoms being on the opposite side of the knee from the tear, he recommended PT instead of a second surgery. I was impressed by his recommendation since it was not self-serving. PT ended up resolving the pain. Dr Mannava also took the time to listen to my medical history and outline the options and risks. I highly recommend him.

We absolutely love Dr Mannava!! He operated on my son when he broke his tibia and fibula and he did a great job with him. He is so down to earth and we felt very comfortable with him. He would answer every question we had when we would done follow up appointments! I would refer him to anyone that needed an orthopedic surgeon!

My husband had shoulder replacement surgery. Dr Mannava is very friendly, willing to talk, explains things clearly. Highly recommend him.
