Dr. Paul Saadi, MD

As a surgeon myself there's only a few people I'd let operate on me. Dr. Saadi is one of them and I'm glad I did it. Felt better the very next day. His office staff, Sharon and Karen, are super helpful too and always pick up the phone...a rarity at doctors office. Awesome doctor and staff!

You don't get seen when you are scheduled. I am usually seen 30 to 40 minutes after my appointment. I don't mind waiting if it is for a good doctor, but this doctor performed surgery on my neck, told me the pain would be relieved, but here I am 7 months after the surgery and I am still in pain. I went to see him, and he did not believe, because after all, Drs. are perfect, right, they don't make mistakes, and he sent me on my way with a referral for physical therapy. He was very dismissive and rude. Some of the staff is also rude. In summary, this doctor does not like being told that whatever procedure he performed on you didn't work. He is not professional about it. He takes it personally. And this is why I don't recommend Dr. Saadi.

There are not enough stars to rate this amazing surgeon. My sweet 73 year old mom’s shoulder was basically all torn up with severe arthritis. The pain was unbearable and greatly affected her life as a grandmother of three active boys. She first went to another surgeon that told her to go to rehab because essentially she was too old to get a reverse shoulder repair. He told her the surgery would take 6 hours and lots of blood loss. I took her to Dr. Saadi and his knowledge was incredible. His confidence about doing her surgery and using special imaging techniques immediately made us feel better about the situation. It only took him 1 hour to do the surgery!!! Within 1 week, my sweet mom was getting back to her normal self and playing with her grandchildren!! It was a miracle. Being a medical professional (actually a physician) myself, I can not recommend any other orthopedic surgeon more than him. Thank you Dr. Saadi!!!

Dr. Saadi provided comprehensive explanations, answered all questions, and gave sufficient time to cover everything! I did not feel rushed and have a great sense of relief about my upcoming knee replacement surgery.

I waited in the lobby about an hour before being seen. The Dr was not personable and I could hear the ladies in the front, referring to pt’s by the insurance they had. I wouldn’t go back here again.

Ii was a long time pt. Of his a good doctor for 15yrs. .because of insurance that's only reason I had to leave him .what a great Angel .I will be back end of the year thanks again Della Hampton

I do not have words to describe how poorly I was treated after Dr Saadi did my neck surgery. I have suffered severe nerve damage and endured a lot of pain. He dismissed my complaints and was heartless in listening to my health problems. He was nice until after the surgery. But when I encountered problems after he did the surgery he seemed not to care. He would not listen to my complaints and issues. He talked right over me and I could hardly explain anything to him. And he never focused on the fact that I was hurting badly. I felt like he just did not care. And I had such a hard time dealing with the pain. And other doctors did not want to care for me because he had done the surgery. I suffered greatly before I found a DR that would help me. Never again will he do anything for me. And those of you who allow him to operate, I will just say you better pray to God that you have no problems after the surgery. My after care was terrible. And I was treated rudely, not only by him, but also by some of his staff.

Dr. Saadi took a long time to explain what I should expect. He was very thorough and I really appreciated that. Some doctors act like you already know everything when you walk in. He was able to answer all my questions. The recovery took longer than I anticipated, but then again the doc said I had the worst knee he had ever seen in my age group (50). It was from an old football injury in the 80s and subsequent injuries as well. I would recommend him.

After traveling nearly 100 miles to see Dr. Sadie I was kept waiting about an hour. The front office staff was not polite and Dr. Sadie was arrogant. I will never go back to him again.

One of the best, if not THE best doctors I have ever been to. On time, courteous, excellent surgeon and cares about his patients. Great staff also.

Dr. Saad has performed 6 surgeries on me in the last 3 years. Neck fusion, 2 back fusions , both hands for corporal tunnell, thump fusion. Every surgery was a success. I would recommend him to anyone who needed a surgeon.

Paul Saadi should be reviewed by his peers and whatever governing board of physicians to whom he reports for his inability to relate to his patients in a professional, understanding and comprehending their actual spoken words manner. He does not allow one to complete a sentence before interrupting with what he assumes will be his reply. He dismisses anything that is adverse to his surgery or will skew his record of statistics. His staff is incredibly rude and harasses the patients as well. He continually argued with me, was not well versed with my case, my ongoing concerns and contributed to my lack of healing versus aided my healing. His demeanor is one of chiding as to a child or being condescending to an inferior. When inquiring about how or when certain muscles, scars, etc. would be hurting, healing, etc., the reply was vague or totally scoffed at as though I was wasting his time in asking. His standard reply was, "My surgery is completely successful". I needed to address an associated issue involved with my healing to which he kicked up his rudeness to an arrogance that was truly laughable. He resorted to insulting not only my explanation of pain level and the condition of my muscles, but the ability of my very competent physical therapist of 27 years. I find it very sad that my rehabilitation schedule has been deterred due to this man's mannerism or lack of proper physician's etiquette standards. One should very carefully watch for signs of these childish characteristics prior to choosing this man to be their doctor.

Dr. Saadi was the "On-Call'' orthopedist who operated on my 89 year old mother when she fell in her nsg home, breaking her hip. We have seen him 3 months now. Mom's fine because Dr. Saadi was conservative, thorough, and took his time with advancing her weight-bearing status. He fully explains everything to her, not just me. Office staff at Forest Park are kind, even being patient with our nsg home not always being promt in getting her there. I have found everything he predicted to occur to pan out. He is wise. She is ambulatory now with some weight bearing limitations still in force(his patient and conservative tx of her is to wait on her to heal well at first, not later, after a 2nd or 3rd fracture) When evaulating your orthopedist, outcome is all you care about. Consider this, how many 89 year old nsg home patients recover their mobility following hip fracture?

I would not recommend Dr Paul Saadi for any kind of surgery. I know surgeries do not always give the results we hope for. I can accept that. But i have a problem with how I was treated once my surgery went bad. My condition ended up much worst and I had severe nerve pain long term & a busted shoulder. (I still do not know how that happened). My neck, shoulder, right arm & hand still have problembs & my surgery is a year & a half old. I went back to Dr Saadi 3 times hoping for help. Instead I was told all of my issues were just a little nerve damage. He acted like it was nothing. My pain level was a 10 daily but he did not appear concerned. His way of handling it was by saying he believe I would regain at least close to 100% use of my arm & hand within a 2 yr period. I had lost complete control as a result of A neck fusion he gave me. He had no bedside manner & an uncaring attitude. He said before surgery that he would take care of me & make me better. When things did not work out as planned I was kicked to the curb & refused appointments when I was crying in pain. Needless to say my opinion of how he treated me is lower than a snakes belly. His entire personality changed after my surgery. I felt he, as well as his staff, was rude & uncaring. There is a lot of negative details I could share but I' ll just share this one. My insurance approved 5 days for in hospital care for my neck fusion. Things did not go good after surgery so I was kicked out the hospital in one day. It was awful what I experienced with excruciating pain. He nor his staff cared. My life will never be the same as a result of his surgery. I suffered severely. The sad part is the lack of compassion I received. I will just say beware! I am stii messed up!

Dr. Saadi is an amazing, caring doctor and surgeon. He explained everything to me in a way that I could understand and he made it possible for me to go from constant pain and a fractured patella with alot of cartilage damage, to Cross Fit workouts three times a week! GO TO THIS DOC!

Dr Saadi performed a total knee replacement on me and explained the procedure step by step and it was a total success. I am back on the tennis court in less than a year.

Excellent doctor. Very caring and thorough.

I had a total knee repalaced by Dr Saddie and had a wonderful reult would recommend in fAct i have!!

He treated me like I was dirt! AFTER doing a major surgery on me, of which I began to have severe issues a few months later, he tried to basically just avoid the issue, say there was nothing wrong, and that I was a stupid idiot that did not know my own body. I will NEVER go back to this jerk, nor would I even send my puppy to him. No bedside manner, no follow up, and he does not care whether you hurt, whether he did not fix the problem, or whether you may have a new issue. After giving him enough of my time and money, and I am still suffering every day of my life with severe pain, I now must start over finding a new doctor. I guess my case was too complicated for him. Plus his assistant is just as rude and obnoxious. Plus he never looked at records that I have sent to him that were in my charts.

This doctor spoke to me like I was an idiot and a drug addict the entire time! He wouldn't even go over my results from the doctor that sent me to him. Needless to say, I will never go back. If I could have given him a 0 on this I would have!
