What sets Dr. Sharareh apart is his ability to combine clinical expertise with a personalized approach. He didn’t just treat the symptoms—he found the root cause and crafted a thoughtful plan that worked. After following his recommendations and treatment, my shoulder is pain-free, and my range of motion is better than it’s been in years. I’m incredibly grateful to Dr. Sharareh for restoring my comfort and helping me get back to doing the things I love. If you’re dealing with any kind of orthopedic issue, especially shoulder-related, I can’t recommend him highly enough.
Dr. Sharareh is a wonderful doctor. He’s extremely knowledgeable and also very humble and smiles a lot. I’ve had probably 10 surgeries over the years from sports (52yrs old) and this was the best I have ever had in results, small scar, and a quick recovery. A very youthful energetic guy but experienced and just a positive person to deal with. Definitely feel lucky to have had him as my surgeon. Just a good person.
I saw Dr. Sharareh for a broken clavicle. He was helpful from the first appointment through my surgery and all the follow up. I have another issue with my other shoulder dislocating and I’ve begun working with him to solve that. I could not be happier with Dr. Sharareh. He not only did an excellent job fixing my collarbone. His bedside manner is the best.
Dr. Sharareh, Ben is a very knowledgeable, kind, informative and patient doctor…he really listens and tackles any problems immediately and fully informs you and prepares you for any future outcome. In my case, Dr. Sharareh performed surgery and did a great job repairing my torn rotator cuff and torn bicep. In this fast paced environment(medical & health)… we need more doctors like him. I am very pleased to have him as my doctor.
Dr. Sharareh was very professional, helpful, and knowledgeable. He provided me with options and recommended a path for me based on my goals and injury severity.
Dr. Sharareh is an outstanding orthopedic surgeon. He is very responsive, thorough and genuinely listened during every encounter from preop to recovery. The surgeries and outcomes went well. I am almost at baseline and very pleased. Highly recommend … superior!!!!
Great visit with Behnam Sharareh MD at Ventura Orthopedics. He was friendly and attentive to my issues, making sure to check out all possible causes. He took the time to explain the mechanics of my shoulder and how I could alleviate the discomfort. Would definitely recommend!
