Patient Reviews
Jan 30, 2024
Dr. Hame has a maternal, loving, mother quality to her. She is warm, friendly, caring, doesn't discriminate whatsoever. She is actively involved in teaching residents and medical students, and is the highest ranked female surgeon in orthopedics for UCLA. This is a tremendous journey that she has climbed in a male dominated industry. She is LGBTQIA friendly and welcoming, and has a deep compassion for veterans and the disabled. Now, here's the truth about her approach. She is by the book. Doctors are required to do 'work up's' in a patients chart, mainly due to insurance companies approving surgeries. You first start with physical therapy, then a cortisone or HA injection, then surgery. So for all knee meniscus tears and ACL injuries, and other non-life threatening injuries, I am talking to you. For hip injuries, the same applies, unless it is medically deemed life threatening. Don't blame the doctor for following protocols. Blame your health insurance company.
Maternal and Loving Doctor! Simply the best! UCL — Jan 30, 2024
