Spoke with Dr Qadir on my visit and he gave me options that I could do for the pain in my wrist. From conservative to surgery and I went with his advice on the more conservative side to see how it heals. He was very pleasant to meShow moreet and speak to.

Dr. Qadir and his staff are very professional and have taken excellent care of my broken leg. Everyone in his office treated me with the utmost respect and kindness. I highly recomend him for anyone looking for an excellent "bone" doctor.
Dr Qadir and his staff especially Leixi, Jose, Ron have excellent interpersonal skills and are candid responding to patients questions
Very informative and professional
I had an excellent experience with Dr Qadir. He has me all set up to address my back pain with one of his Associates.
A+
Dr Qadir is amazing, and embodies all the qualities that make for a truly committed man of medicine. After leaving the office, for the first time in a long time I felt the self worth to fight to get my life back.
I had a complete hip replacement on one side in May 2023. Years of arthritic wear had come to a point where I had trouble walking and the joint was worn to a bone-on-bone contact stage. During three consultative visits Dr. Qadir and his staff conducted a full diagnosis and took the time to explain options, the necessary hip replacement procedure, and answer my numerous almost technical questions. The outcome has been astounding to me. I went home approximately 3.5 hours after start of the operation, and was off the walker and using a cane at home after three days. After a month I walked up Enchanted Rock and around the park, and after five months I hiked Big Bend National Park (longest hike was 14.5 miles). All along I had less discomfort than before the surgery. After approximately 6 months the operative side has felt as natural as the not affected other side. Dr. Qadir is a well known and renowned surgeon who also performs emergency and trauma surgery and reconstruction, with hundreds of surgeries of experience. I give him the highest recommendation and urge you to select him as your surgeon as well.
He confirmed an issue I had and described treatment.
Wonderful practice! Worked me in when I needed urgent attention.
Dr Qadir was very attentive as he listened to how I hurt my right knee. I had slipped going down stairs and apparently had bruised my right knee. Dr Qadir suggested X-rays be taken just to make sure there was no further damage.
The Doctor didnt come in the room and address me about my Injur which I feel is unprofessional, but the rest of the staff was nice.
Very nice DR that makes you feel at ease
Greatest care. Dr Qadir was the best. He talked to me and told me exactly what was going on with my knee.
Great staff. Always friendly and concerned. Always so helpful, never feel rushed and the PA, Roxy is awesome. Would highly recommend Dr Qadir and staff.
Very friendly staff. Very professional.
Very knowledgeable, kind and listened to what I had to say
Dr. Qadir repaired my torn rotator cuff in January. We tried the non-surgical path first, with physical therapy, but Dr. Qadir wasn't happy with my strength after a reasonable time and recommended surgery. Surgery was done really well, arthroscopic with 6 incisions, and I opted for the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection. I have no basis for comparison, but my recovery, range of motion, and strength are better than expected for 9 weeks post-op. Dr. Qadir, while not being a shoulder specialist, is a trauma surgeon who has repaired many rotator cuffs. I felt he was the best surgeon for this type of repair. He answered all of my questions honestly, and his staff was also quick to respond to post-op questions. NOTE: My injury was due to a fall and affected my supra- and infra-spinatus tendons.
Dr Qadir is wonderful and his staff are all amazing ! I fell and shattered my arm went to surgery emergently and he pieced my arm back together - the bone was shattered in little pebbles and he put me back together with full function of my arm. I am so grateful & thankful that I had a great surgeon. THANK U DR QADIR ❤️
Just a follow-up to a previous partial knee replacmest that went excellent.
He takes time with his patients and listen to their concerns.
Answers all questions and is very competent.
Every step from beginning to end was explained clearly. Recovery has been remarkable. No pain from any part of the implant. PT was sent to my home for the first two weeks post surgery. Wounds healed excellently. His expertise is excellent!!! Recommend highly!!!
Dr. Qadir replaced my left knee in February 2021. Since then I had no issues at all. Also, the staff is very good.
Great Doctor
