I had just moved to the San Francisco Bay Area and first found Dr. Faryniarz on the internet. I was impressed by her medical education at Harvard Medical School and five years of orthopedic surgery residency and fellowship at Hospital for Special Surgery in New York. My first visit with her confirmed for me that her personality, presence and obvious knowledge matched her academic background. I decided immediately that no one else would perform my massive degenerative rotator cuff repair. She performed the surgery six months ago. There was relatively little post-operative pain and I now have regained complete use of my shoulder and am free of discomfort. I can not recommend her more enthusiastically. My other shoulder also needs a completer repair and, although Stanford is two miles from here, I will drive to San Jose for Dr. Faryniarz. I have complete confidence in her ability and recommend her highly.
