Sepehr Sajjad's Online Review Report Card

Had my carpal tunnel surgery with Dr Sajjad ~ so happy I had the surgery!

As a retired surgeon I chose Dr Sajjar. He was very pleasant, knowledgeable and efficient. I highly recommend him.

I had my right thumb mcp joint fused by Dr. Sajjad on 1/29/20 at the surgical facility in Waterford CT of which he is part owner. I had one follow up visit in February 2020 but no x-ray. I was scheduled to return in March, April, and May but he canceled all of those appointments. According to the receptionist, his wife would not let him see patients due to COVID. I did see him once in June which was too late to make recommendations or corrections. I am right handed, cannot write, tend to drop things, as well as experience pain daily. I'm sure if I want to correct the issues with him, I'd have to pay an exorbitant co-pay again as well as have my insurance company line his pocket - again. I believe he was delinquent is following up with after surgical care.

Dr Sajjad is knowledgeable and took the time to hear what I had to say that was going on, he had xrays taken, then when it was found not broken or fracture I then was scheduled for an MRI which found torn ligaments that needed care, I was given an option of casting to see if it would mend itself back together or surgery. He explained both options, because of my job, surgery was a better fit. I needed a faster, sure recovery period. He and his staff are a good fit for me

My father in law Ronald had surgery here and he is so happy. He has a hard time speaking English and sometimes gets embarrassed. I work and am not able to go to all his appointments with him so it gets hard at times. But he is very happy with this office. He says the girls are all sweet and always make him feel at home and help him with the translation when he needs it. The doctor found the problem and fixed it quickly and was very friendly and understanding. We both had questions about insurance and how much it would be and the Senorita as he calls her called the insurance for us multiple times and answered our questions and helped us with questions for the surgery center. I'm not sure if this is part of her job or not but we appreciate it. This office is all about the patient which is hard to find. Anyone who needs a caring doctor and team should go see this office.

Wasted 6 months of my time and diagnosed me wrong! The first visit, i explained what had happened and where it hurt. He said it's probably "this" suggested a cortisone shot for the area. 4 weeks later I returned and told him nothing had changed he suggested waiting eight more weeks. After this he suggested buddy taping my fingers and waiting another 4 weeks. On the final visit he suggested doing a a trigger finger repair surgery. Each visit was less than 5 minutes long and nothing new was done. I had a very strong suspicion that this doctor had no idea what was wrong with my hand so I decided to get a second opinion. I was shocked with the amount of things the new doctor did that dr.Sajjad did not. On my first visit with the new doctor I had x-rays and a full hands-on diagnostics done. He was able to pinpoint where my pain was coming from give me a full explanation and suggested treatment options, all in the first visit. Dr. Sajjad did none of this. Dr. Sajjad took advantage of me

Diagnosed and treated my carpal tunnel. Great experience throughout my care

This doctor has a very warm personality and an infectious confidence, runs an efficient office, and is someone I would recommend to anyone with a hand problem. I know several people who have seen Dr. Sajjad and all of them love him.

I was referred to Dr sajjad by my orthopedic doctor after a distal radius fracture of the left arm that resulted in me not being able to bend my left thumb. We figured it was either nerve damage or a ruptured fpl tendon. He says if its a rupture it may need to be repaired surgically. I said I was on no way interested in surgery. After 6 weeks I have a follow up and he seemed pretty sure that if it was nerve damage the movement would have returned by then. So he tells me to consider having it surgically repaired. I again, told him I was in no way interested in surgery. Finally I get the physical therapy I had wanted to try from the beginning. He scheduled me for six weeks of therapy. Within one week of exercise I had doubled my motion in my thumb. By the next week of therapy I had complete, full, normal motion in my injured thumb. Needless to say I was slightly upset that Dr sajjad wanted 5o have this surgery with all this recovery and possible complications involved when the PT I had wanted all along worked perfectly! Moral of the story, do not let him talk you into surgery unless you have forced him to explore every other possible option. I'm just writing this because I would never want anyone to have a surgery for something that can be cured simply by exercising it properly.

Was referred by local ER because fall from ladder and staging landed on left arm (yes, left-handed too) resulting in 3 breaks.ER had orthopedist come in to set breaks and put my arm in a splint until I could get appt. for surgery. Left wrist break was fragmented. I waited 5 days for appt. upon learning my insurance had lapsed, my level of care completely diminished! Dr barely rewrapped splint.( which unravelled an hr afterwards) pain is level 9 on scale of 1 to 10. Dr prescribed 1 pill per day IF needed for pain. Is this a joke? No, it is sadly the truth! I called Dr Sajjad from the pharmacy, it took him 3 days (business days, not weekend) to return my phone call! It was no error, I can now take 2 pills per day.Never recieved worse care and this is supposed to be a professional? I still dont have cast yet, and injury was on 7/3/2013.
