Developmental Dysplasia - this condition appears in infancy, where joints are dislocated and are unable to properly develop. Legg-Calve-Perthes Diease - this condition occurs when there is restricted blood flow to an area of bone, leading to cell death and collapse of the bone. This may lead to early arthritis and permanent hip joint damage.
Dr. Dee helps patients get through a wide variety of conditions so that they can regain full mobility and return to their regular activities. These devices can help decrease pain, swelling, and inflammation after surgery. Even without the devices, you will have numbing medication injected at the end of surgery which typically lasts 3-5 hours; this will give you enough time to return home and start taking your oral pain medications.

Oh my where to begin! First I'd like to say I wish there was something I could do or say other than a simple thank you, but Thank you Dr. Dee and his wonderful staff who have done nothing but move mountains and part oceans for me. Making me feel like a part of their family with all the love and care they've shown me while being a patient of theirs. Dr. Dee is nothing short of Miracle worker and a Blessing.
He brought my Knee back to normal in what feels such a short time. I know I still have more to go but I can walk and do the things I love again all because of him. I came to him a year ago with with a knee injury that revealed to be worse than just ouch it hurts. I had everything an athlete or service member would fear. Meniscus tear, Acl/Mcl tears, A hole in my cartilage of the knee which is called a divot I believe.
All in one knee. I was a little worried and saddened by the news but Dr. Dee assured me that he would be able to get me back and going again. He also is the first Dr. to use a new method of surgery in which he used donor cartilage to cover up the hole I had in my own cartilages instead of the old method in which they poke your bone to cause bleeding so that your body repairs naturally.
As you know cartilage does not grow back. Because of all of his work and passion for helping out the community in under a year I was able to jog and do light work around the house, some light exercise and even basketball. I thought my life was over and Dr. Dee brought me back to life. If you are looking for Care please give them a call just as I did, and I'm glad I ever did. Thanks again Dr. Dee!

I had left shoulder surgery October 23 2018 at Robotics Outpatient Center - Roc LA. I had left shoulder impingement syndrome long head of the biceps rupture, rotator cuff disease, acromioclavicular joint degenerative disease and a labral tear and extensive posterior labral tear and posterior complete humeral avulsion glenohumeral ligament tear. I personally was concerned about having surgery because I never had any surgery before in my life but I have to tell you that the surgery went really well, I had no pain what so ever I went to every physical therapy appointment and I have 100% range of motion I have the upmost respect for Dr Dee I think he is a great Dr.
And I would recommend him to anyone and I have. My recovery time was exceptional, I went back to work at light duty in 2mos and full duty 2 mos after that, I've been water sking snow sking and throwing chains at work with absolutely no problems. I give Dr Dee 5 stars most definitely

Dr Dee and his staff Kristy are amazing! Clean facility friendly service. Dr Dee assessed me and gave me an injection in the right spot I've been pain free for two weeks and my ROM in my shoulder is WNL's now! Hopefully ready to return to sports when he gives me the go ahead. I would highly recommend visiting this facility for sports related issues.

Dr. Dee is an exceptional doctor and I cannot thank him enough for healing my shoulder. After a major snowboarding accident, I was left with several labral tears, a partial rotator cuff tear, and MDI, which involves labral tears as well as capsule-ligaments that have been stretched and are loose. Since capsule-ligaments are thin and can heal loose, like the elastic band of a sock, it can be difficult for the MRI to gauge how loose they are.
Therefore it is the job of the physician to diagnose and treat it appropriately. After 6 months of physical therapy in an attempt to refrain from surgery, my shoulder was still dislocating and was very loose when doing normal tasks. At this point, Dr. Dee made the call to perform surgery. Surgery is not an easy choice to make and and although my recovery was long and required a lot of dedication and hard work in physical therapy on my end, I could not have asked for a better experience.
I felt supported and encouraged throughout the entire process and was given everything I needed for a full recovery. Now my shoulder is even stronger and more functional than it was before. To enhance my recovery, I also received several regenerative injections from Dr. Dee which seemed to help significantly, especially with pain, inflammation, and range of motion.
The injections are definitely the medicine of the future and I'm so grateful Dr. Dee is at the forefront of it! Because of Dr. Dee I am able to live a healthy, active lifestyle with no restrictions, which I didn't think was even possible!

I cant say enough about my experience here. Obviously, nobody wants surgery. However, Dr Dee and his entire staff made me feel very comfortable, gave me more knowledge then I every expected and simply put, treat you like family, not just another patient. If you ever need help like I did, or sometime of this nature, I would recommend anybody and everybody to Dr. Dees clinic. There a absolutely awesome!
