Patient Rating
Patients consistently describe Dr. Aoki and his team as highly skilled and effective surgeons who have helped restore health and confidence. Reviewers highlight a compassionate, personable bedside manner—he listens, explains treatment plans and recovery clearly, and makes patients (including teenagers and athletes) feel comfortable and supported. Families also praise the helpful, responsive staff and clear pre- and post-operative communication that reassures patients throughout care.
Generated via Patient Reviews
The patient rating score is an average of all responses on our patient experience survey. The rating averages scores for all questions about care from our providers. The scale on which responses are measured is 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score.
Patient comments are gathered from our patient experience survey and displayed in their entirety. For the convenience of our visitors, some patient comments have been translated from their original language into English while preserving their original meaning as accurately as possible. Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy.

Professional friendly helpful and time efficient.
Dr. Stephen Aoki was extremely knowledgeable and provided compassionate care. Explaining everything and offering options to address my knee issue. 10/10 would recommend.
Dr. Aoki and his team are always very professional, kind and helpful. They have helped 2 of my children with 4 different surgeries and each visit we feel very comfortable and well cared for. They help us understand the surgical plan very well, and also help us through all check ups and recovery. My teenagers especially feel very comfortable with them. Dr. Aoki is sympathetic to their injuries and the impact surgery will have on their athletic goals. We are greatful for Dr. Aoki and his team!
I feel confident that he will help me live with less hamstring pain
Dr Aoki was amazing. Felt so heard and confident in his advice. Grateful I was able to get in and see him
Dr Aoki is a very good listener and he always answers my questions and addresses my concerns.
I appreciate the direct communication from Dr Aoki. His team and him make it a very trusting and relaxing environment. Thanks to him I am in recovery and looking forward to fixing my right hip next.
What a wonderful person and excellent Dr..
Dr. Aoki has been absolutely amazing! He has explained everything to me pre-op and explained everything that was done and how its looking post-op. He is very responsive to any messages I've sent and is willing to answer any questions I've had! My surgery experience has been amazing! Out of all my surgeries this by far has been the easiest to recover from and the best experience!
Dr. Aoki made me feel very comfortable and took time to answer all of my questions.
Very kind doctor and skill at what he does. Doesn't make me feel rushed.

Excellent Doc with a great bedside manner
Dr. Aoki took as much time as I needed for all my questions to be answered. He was sincere and made me feel at ease.
Dr Aoki would receive my highest recommendation possible. He is a highly skilled medical professional, but also a person that genuinely cares about the patient and parent.
Dr. Aoki, and the staff that work along side him have a very good bedside manner and a caring insite when helping and assessing during appointments.

Dr. Aoki is a great doctor, with a friendly and personable demeanor. He's probably the best doctor I've ever had. His diagnoses have always been spot-on and his concern for my comfort and quality of life are top priorities. He has repaired both of my hips and continues to help with my other on-going conditions. I've seen other Orthopedic Specialists for my hips and none have been willing or able to fix the problems, just treat the symptoms. Dr. Aoki addresses the whole situation, which makes him the best in my opinion! I can't recommend him enough! I am forever grateful to him for restoring my hips and my confidence in taking on normal activities again!
Dr. Aoki goes above and beyond in making sure you are happy with the care you are receiving and that you understand procedures and expectations.
outstanding care from Dr. Aoki!
So, so wonderful. A breath of fresh air in the orthopedic world. I wish all orthopedic surgeons actually showed they care about the patient like Dr. Aoki does.

Caring and responsive doctor.
Dr. Aoki is a great doctor! I and so thankful we were refereed to him. He is very kind and very patient and very skilled!

Great doc so far I have only 1 complaint and that's about pain management for pre-operation
Kind, caring, good listener
We found Dr Aoki to be an extremely caring, talented, and knowledgeable doctor! He is very considerate of his patients and explained things in an easy way for us all to understand. He also listened very well to the way our son's injury occurred, and what kind of activities he wants to continue with. We feel very good about the type of procedure he performed (our son is still growing, so we wanted to find a Dr who specializes in ACL repair surgery for children/teens). Very grateful we got in with Dr Aoki and really appreciate his entire staff!
Absolutely amazing bedside manner. Very professional and kind!
Not only is he an amazing surgeon, but he is an amazing person and so conscientious of me as a patient

A highly skilled doctor who will give you a state-of-the-art surgery. The best in his field and I will highly recommend him to others. I had pre-hab before surgery, a fantastic surgery for multiple things, and good follow-up after surgery. I'm doing so much better now and feel like a normal person again.
