Dr. Mark Shekhman, MD

Dr. Shekhman explained the process of a total knee replacement so that my husband and I understood what was going to happen. He answered any and all questions that were asked. Also, he was truthful about the pain and how much work it was to get better. At 13 weeks post-op, my knee hasn’t felt this good in over a year. I would recommend Dr. Shekhman to anyone thinking about this surgery.

I knew I wasn't in good shape but was afraid of the finality of having hip replacement surgery -Dr Shekhman had MRI as well as Xray information of my hip joint and with my wife present told me in a firm but confident manner that I needed my hip joint replaced - now 3 months after the surgery I'm able to walk longer distances and help around the house more and be more independent .

Very personable and knowledgable.

Very professional and Personable, yet business like when necessary.Would recommend in a heartbeat.

Dr. Shekhman is a very good surgeon who performed my Left Hip replacement on May 9th 2024. He was very cautious with me due to other cardiac issues, and had me stay over night for additional observation. The surgery was a complete success and I would recommend him to anyone in need of a Hip replacement. He was very professional and personal. If I ever need a Right Hip Replacement I would go to him first. As a point of reference; I am 12 weeks out of surgery at this time and feel great, and I am wondering why I waited so long. I have returned to golfing and am pain free.

Procedure went well. Had a physical therapist come in 5 visits in 3 weeks. She helped me with the proper way to do my list of exercises. Week one: walked with a walker. Week 2: walked with a cane. Week 3: walked without assistance. After Dr. Shekhman review it was determined that no more therapy was necessary. I'm back to playing golf & mowing the lawn. Thanks Doc.

Dr Shekhman performed both surgeries for me. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need. He and his team are extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. Excellent surgeon!

I recently underwent total hip replacement with Dr. Shekhman and I would highly recommend him to anyone. He was very professional and thoroughly explained the entire process to me beforehand. He was also very friendly and professional. It is only just over two weeks past surgery and I am able to drive again and the recovery and physical therapy are going very well.With regards to Orthopedic Associates, every employee was helpful and welcoming. Also, I experienced no delays in waiting and everything was on time. Thank you for everything.

Left knee replacement 11/28. 4 days later significant bleed through on dressing. Got to office for second dressing and noticed a small opening at base of incision. Bleed again and back for another dressing. When I questioned him, his response was “everyone is different- too hard to explain “. Seriously? Three days later I ended up in HH ER for 4 days with severe cellulitis and massive antibiotic treatment. Then rehab for a week. I have no doubt the infection entered my leg through this open area. During all this, I never once heard from him - not even “I’m sorry this happened to you” obviously to me he is covering his behind. This trauma has eliminated my ever having the other knee done. He’s probably a good technician but no humanity there.

Pre knee replacement appointment. First time meeting this insecure, arrogant, ignorant, god complex guy. Mostly concerned with the finances of surgery of which he felt compelled to share with me throughout the visit. I’m not looking for a good bedside manner just not a close minded ignorant doc. I don’t really waste time righting reviews but this guy was by far worst med worker I’ve ever met. If you’re looking for someone with accountability if there’s an issue I’m sure this isn’t your guy.

Dr. Shekhmann is perfectly professional, competent and straight forward.He explains very detailed, in front, and after surgery. He is very patient and goes beyond everything I experienced. I fully trust him and would choose him any time again.

Very good. At about 80% or better 9 weeks after surgery.

Great results..very informative at all stages. Follow directions and you will likely do well(each patient is different of course)

Perfect in every respect!

It’s been 1 year since surgery and couldn’t be happier to have my active life back. Biking, skiing and brisk walking resumed and couldn’t be happier. Office follow ups are thorough to ensure a continued successful outcome.

Hips and knees are his specialty. I had two total hip replacements in the last 3 years with hood outcomes and a good office and hospital experience.

Visit verified both hip replacements are performing perfectly.

My mother went to see him for her severe hip and back pain and he dismissed her and told her that she needs to go back to work. She's a City bus driver and told her that he wishes he had an easy job like her to sit down all day. Unprofessional, rude, no compassion. Furthermore, he told her that my mother's orthopedist does not what he is talking about regarding her condition. Stay Away from this Doctor!

Second hip replacement by Dr. Shekhman and his support team. The whole process was smooth and seamless. A patient portal was integral to the success, providing videos and exercises customized to the need. Highly recommend engaging in a visit and perhaps surgery if needed. Worth every bit of time invested to be able to walk painlessly within 2 weeks. Thank you to all involved.

The surgery was successful and the physical therapy, both the home visits and the other visits to the physical therapy unit on Western Blvd, that followed the operation was affective.
