Dr. Iyengar performed my rotator cuff repair and I couldn't be happier. Throughout my experience, he got to know me and addressed me as an "individual" rather than just another patient on his caseload. He took all my questions and concerns into consideration and weighed in my lifestyle when giving medical advice. I highly recommend Dr. Iyengar as an MD and surgeon and can't thank him enough for getting me back to the recreational lifestyle I love.

Dr. Iyengar did an amazing job with my mother’s shoulder surgery. He was always so thorough with her follow ups. The staff at alpine orthopedic left a bit to be desired.

I saw Dr. Iyengar after my shoulder had been hurting for several months. Dr. Iyengar and team were able to diagnose the issue, discuss with me my options, and ultimately perform surgery based on my decision.
Dr. Iyengar and team were extremely professional and I felt very comfortable going through what could be a very apprehensive experience. I was well informed what to expect during every step and all the staff I interacted with was very courteous.
I'm now 12 weeks through recovery from my shoulder surgery and feeling fantastic. Though recovery from any surgery is never fun, I am glad I made this decision and I would do so again in a heartbeat.
Thank you Dr. Iyengar and team!

I went to see Dr. Iyengar about a shoulder issue that was continually causing me pain. Dr. Iyengar was very attentive and immediately started to help me figure out the issue. So many doctors seem to give you the run around. He was straight to the point and helped me figure out what the real issue was causing the pain. He and his staff helped me the entire way with scheduling and making sure i was comfortable. He and his office go out of their way to make sure all is perfect. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is having issues. Don't put it off! They will take great care of you!

Had a shoulder replacement a little over a year ago. Came home the same day and had no pain for the first couple of days and even after that very manageable. My arm and shoulder have great movement in all directions. I highly recommend Dr. Iyengar!

Dr. Iyengar is an excellent people person. Couple that with his obvious medical knowledge, and that equates to a positive experience (given you're there because of a health issue-a negative). I highly recommend him to future possible patients.. Very impressed...

I did not anticipate the benefit and value of having a shoulder replacement. To say the least, 2 months after surgery my shoulder is pain free and usable again. Dr. Iyengar was very positive about the outcome and I believed him....thankfully. His abilities showed in his work....Thank you Dr. Iyengar

This guys canceled my surgery the day before after taking my money. Completely no empathy or regards for me as a patient. Told me to find a new dr the day before surgery. Completely heartbroken from the treatment of him and Alpine orthopedic group.

Dr. Iyengar is both a wonderful doctor and a wonderful person. He displays amazing professionalism, but also creates a welcoming environment. My most recent visit, while just a checkup, still was enjoyable due to his presence.

Dr Iyengar performed a total shoulder replacement on me one year ago. every thing went as well as one could wish. I have been able to almost eliminate the use of pain killers. my range of motion is almost full.
He is a very personable and caring surgeon, very thorough. this was my second replacement surgery. recovery was fast and relatively pain free. If I had another shoulder to do He's the man.

All I have to say about Dr Iyengar is totally positive! I went in needing to find help and a solution to an extremely painful shoulder resulting from a fall. The doctor was absolutely phenomenal! I had such pain that I wasn’t able to sleep in bed for months… The pain was so bad it would bring me to tears many nights. After all the appropriate tests were completed the doctor found significant damage to my rotator cuff. As soon as I could get on the surgery schedule Dr Iyengar very professionally and successfully repaired the mess in my shoulder! I’m not saying that the recovery was easy… It wasn’t… But the end result, after following all of the doctors orders, has been magnificent! Dr is a very kind and patient Man, As well as being highly talented in his field! At age 76, I am now able to live a pain-free life ... Actually sleeping in my bed… And able to go outside and walk my 2+ miles in the morning again… Thank you so much Dr. and all the staff in the office and Surgery Center??

My primary physician recommended shoulder replacement and sent me to see Dr. Iyengar. That was 3 years ago and I still have real shoulder and minimal pain with use of my shoulder. I can sleep at night and I play tennis almost daily. He is my hero who gave me my life back. I am indebted to him plus he is a Lakers fan! ??

Dr Iyengar did a full shoulder replacement on me. He and his staff were congenial and professional is every way. I had very little, if any, discomfort and recovered quickly to much better shoulder health than before the surgery. I would highly recommend this surgery, and very highly recommend Dr. Iyengar. It was a "piece of cake".
