"I had two shoulder labrum repairs within 10 months of each other back in 2008. Dr. Khalfayan performed the second of the two. Not only did the work done by Dr. Khalfayan prove far less painful than my first labrum repair, it also proved more stable. Dr. Khalfayan also took the time to add waterproof seals over all my incisions. For anyone who has ever had to shower with a makeshift water seal over surgical incisions, you know just how valuable this was. On top of my shoulder, Dr. Khalfayan performed two surgeries on my elbow to clean out arthritic bone growths that had chipped off. Outside of the operating room, I found Ed to be unique in his communication skills. He spoke candidly about injuries, their potential long term effects and the probability of the realization of these effects. He always seemed to have an interest in my long-term well being."
