Dr. Syed Ashfaq Hasan, MD

I am so grateful to Dr Syed Hasan and his team for their compassion and expertise. I fractured my shoulder last Jan and needed a replacement . The Chair of Orthopedics, Dr Henn set me up to see the head of his shoulder surgery team- Dr Hasan. Now, six months the later, I am glad to say that I am greatly improved. My surgery was expert and so was Dr Hasan’s close follow up care. I count my self fortunate to have been cared for by Dr Hasan and the Maryland Orthopedics team. - Richard Colgan, M.D.

I had severe arthritis in my right shoulder. As I fell down a flight of steps I fractured my humerus and shattered other bones in that shoulder. My primary care physician recommended Dr. Hasan. He did an awesome job of repairing my shoulder. This was a very difficult shoulder replacement as the pieces of bones were too small to use the traditional method of replacement. Somehow Dr. Hasan repaired or replaced the damaged bits and pieces of my shoulder. I now have a pain fee and well moving arm and shoulder. Dr. Hasan is very nice and professional. He listened to my questions and patiently answered them. He made sure i had the proper pain medication for this major rebuild so I was pain free during recovery. Now that I'm on the mend, I'm scheduling a replacement of my left arthritic shoulder with him. I'm my opinion Dr. Hasan is a masterful doctor and a fine gentleman. I was lucky to be referred to him. Thanks for reading, David Hnat

"I recently had surgery with Dr. Hasan and couldn't be more pleased with the results. From the initial consultation to post-operative care, the expertise and attention to detail were impeccable. This was the first time I’ve ever had to have surgery & it went smoothly. I genuinely feel that I received the best possible care, and I am grateful to Dr. Hasan and the entire team for their exceptional professionalism and compassionate care. Highly recommended!"

After almost a year of dealing with constant pain and being told by two surgeons that my shoulder could not be operated on, I finally found found. Dr. .Hasan. When he came into the office he made me feel that my problem wssc his most important priority. He looked me in the eye and told me he could fix my pain and he did. He is by far the most competent.surgeon I have ever met. But although that is impressive, what is really remarkable is that he is also very kind and gentle. To have all those traits and one doctor is absolutely unbelievable.

Dr. Hasan's surgery on my massive rotator cuff tear has been successful all around! His surgery, regular care after surgery, and recommendations for PT and activities. I have full mobility now and am working on strengthening it further. His help, skills, and advice have at all stages in this ordeal have been invaluable!

Dr. Hassan has replaced both of my shoulders. The first completed March of 2022 has completely restored range of motion to my left arm. Prior to surgery any movement with that arm involved pain. I anticipate the same result with my right arm, surgery completed mid-January 2023. Dr. Hasan and his team do any excellent job of keeping me and my family informed of what to expect throughout the process.I am amazed that because of the technique of Dr. Hasan and his team I have had little to no post-surgical pain in both cases.

Dr Hasan did a great job on my shoulder. When nobody else could help me he did. After surgery on my shoulder it works better than it did prior to surgery. I feel he was very empathetic and he definitely listened to what I had to say. Not many doctors do that anymore. I highly recommend him.

I found Dr. Hasan after I'd had a bad experience for a rotator cuff repair. It was a year after my surgery and I already had a tear in it. Meanwhile I was experiencing pain very similar in my other shoulder. Eventually I had surgery on the second shoulder by Dr. Hasan. It was an entirely different experience, even though the technique and surgery was nearly exactly the same. At 3 weeks post surgery I had less pain and more ability than I did at 3 months with my other shoulder surgery. Knowledge is great, but there is something to be said for technique. I am so pleased to have met him and to have had him do my surgery. While it is a lengthy recovery and takes hard work by the patient in therapy, I believe it is due to the successful surgical attention and post care treatment I received. Thank you Dr. Hasan!

I fell and seriously fractured my arm and totally blew up my right shoulder. Dr here where I live told me that it was too bad to be fixed here and referred me to Dr Hasan. I'm so thankful he did. I received top notch care by Dr Hasan and his staff. Would recommend Dr Hasan to anyone.

I fell on the ice and broke and dislocated both shoulders. Dr. Hasan did the surgeries to fix my shoulders. He had to do total reverse replacements on both my shoulders. He did an amazing job. I think I was one of his toughest cases. He was always completely honest. Always told us what to expect - even if it could be bad. Which I extremely appreciated. He didn't sugar coat anything - which is what I needed and wanted. I wanted honesty so my family and I knew what to expect. He has a good personality and bedside manner. I couldn't have asked for a better doctor and surgeon. I followed all his instructions throughout this past year and am healing wonderfully!! He gave me my life back when I wasn't sure I was going to get it back (losing the use of both arms was very difficult). For that, there are not enough thank you's in the world. I would highly recommend Dr. Hasan to anyone and everyone.

This doctor treated my rotator cuff tear and now I can move. He took care of me when I was in pain.

Dr. Hasan had explained my total reverse shoulder replacement in great detailed. I wrote down a series of concerns I had about this operation after I had watched several of them online. He took the time to answer all my question, also in great detail, which satisfied my main concerns. The surgery went very well, my time at the hospital was without much pain and the following weeks at home where a lot less painful then I was expecting. One mouth later I have some more PT to do, but I'm surprisingly doing much of my everyday activities. Dr. Hasan is who I would recommend to my close family members and to my best friends.

This guy runs the most arrogant practice I've ever had the displeasure to be involved with. I made an appt., for an aching knee that I can now barely walk on, a week out. His office calls me the day prior to say he only sees patients 50 and under! They then want to know if they can pawn me off on one of his cohorts!! They had a week to let me know what this daisy's preference is!

Dr Hasan is great I put this off for year's. Doc explained everything and everything went as described.

Excellent doctor!!! Dr. Hasan successfully treated me for a rotator cuff (and calcium deposit) tear and a bicep joint tear. He has excellent bedside manners and takes time with his patients.

I had 4 surgeries before finding Dr Hasan...he was very thorough as he did not want to risk an infection..after 4 years of not being able to raise my arm, I can now touch the top of my head, get a plate out of a cabinet...I had less pain with the reverse shoulder replacement than I did with any of the other surgeries..I cannot thank Dr Hasan and his staff, along with the surgery team at Kernan..enough!!! Excellent communications, caring and wonderful folks!!!!

Could not have been more pleased with the entire experience. My shoulder injury was very extensive requiring over 6 hours of surgical repair. I felt informed, prepared and relaxed throughout the time with the staff.

Had already had 4 surgeries to my shoulder before coming to Dr Hasan. He was very thorough in his exam and performed tests . He then came up with a plan of a reverse shoulder replacement. I can now touch the top of my head and begin functioning like a two armed person should. This has taken me 4 years to get to where I am...his portion was 9 months total!!!

Excellent Dr., staff and facilities. Would (and have) highly recommend.

AFTER SURGERY TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER I AM NO LONGER IN PAIN AND MY MOBILITY HAS INCREASED SUBSTANTIALLY. THANKS TO DR HASAN.
