Dr. Puri is a kind and superb surgeon. He performed two hip replacements for me, and the results have been excellent.

I was so impressed with Dr Puri and also the younger doctor who was training. They were both so kind and I did not feel a bit rushed at all. Surgery was recommended for my hip, which didn't surprise me due to the cartilage loss - but I appreciated them telling me to take time to consider everything. I have decided to do the surgery due my pain, and I feel reassured about that decision from my consult visit.
