Benjamin E. Stein, MD

"WOW! Man oh man! Dr. Stein is the greatest Orthopedic in the universe.... Seriously, he has to be the best in Washington DC . His attentiveness to his patients is awesome, he listens to you, and he knowledgeable and is willing to do everything within his power to make you feel better, to make you feel comfortable and to understand what's going on with your body. He will work to get you from bad to awesome-- get you back on your feet. He'll do everything to that he can to make you better. The only thing I can say bad about Dr. Stein, he's a Dallas Cowboys fan L O L. A great doctor! God bless him!"

"In November of 2017 I had a complete tear of my achilles tendon. I called a good friend and amazing upper extremity surgeon Dr. Mustapha Haque looking for a referral for my injury.He refereed me to Dr. Ben Stein. This was my first major surgery and Dr. Stein was quick, calming, and took great care of me. The surgery went well, met him several times over the course of 8 months and I was free to go by August of 2018. I also had a great PT Paulina Ochao who definitely play a huge part in my recovery. Less than a year later, I was hunting Elk in Colorado... Thank you Dr. Stein for taking care of me!"

"I highly recommend Dr. Stein and his team for anyone in need of orthopedic care; specifically foot/ankle. My experience with them was exceptional from the very beginning. Lauren, his assistant, was incredibly thorough during the consultation, making it easy to discuss my terrible ankle injury and ask any questions. When Dr. Stein explained the surgery, I felt confident that I was in capable hands. Scheduling my first surgery was quick, and despite the initial anxiety, I always felt supported. Lauren was just a call or email away to address any concerns post-surgery. The second surgery to remove hardware went smoothly after weeks of physical therapy, and I was well-informed throughout the entire process. The post-treatment care was excellent, with x-rays and check-up visits making me confident in my healing. One more great aspect of Dr. Stein's practice is the option for physical therapy within the same building, making the whole experience seamless. If you're looking for expert orthopedic care and a supportive team, Dr. Stein and his group are the right choice."

"I honestly don't have enough superlatives to describe Dr. Stein, Lauren George, or this practice. Top-flight expertise and great bedside manner, with amazing responsiveness and accessibility, are the hallmarks that combine to give me 100 confidence in the diagnosis, surgery, and aftercare I'm receiving. I went for a second opinion and Dr. Stein's X-ray and keen eye had him order a CT Scan showing 2 major additional broken bones that my first doctor had missed. In less than a week I had the surgery and a week later I'm doing great, the original pain is gone! Can not recommend this practice highly enough."

"Dr Stein is an excellent orthopedic surgeon - particularly for anyone who is an athlete or active and demands a lot from their limbs. His PA and Clinical team are extremely responsive and helpful answering any questions you might have before or after surgery. I had already had one surgery on my foot from another Dr that didn't work. Dr Stein performed the surgery successfully by doing a more comprehensive repair as he identified additional issues that needed to be fixed. Throughout the pre-surgery process Dr Stein was very clear explaining what had gone wrong and what he likely needed to do. Afterwards during the recovery phase he provided very detailed instructions on how to rebuild strength in the operative limb - from recommended items to aid with elevation, a program to progressively weight load, and a comprehensive physical therapy schedule that provided movement limitations to help the PTs provide proper care. Every step of the way from day one to month six I knew what I was allowed to do and what I should work on."

"I had ankle surgery with Dr. Stein in Fall 2018 after a hockey injury left me with multiple ankle fractures. Dr. Stein and his team were professional, sympathetic, and answered questions in a timely matter. My surgery and rehab went well and I am now completely healed. I am a very active person and even with sports and running, I am never in any discomfort or pain despite having screws and plates permanently in my ankle. It is like I never had surgery. This must speak to the strong surgical skills of Dr. Stein and the great Physical Therapy team in Dr. Stein's office. I wouldn't hesitate highly recommending Dr. Stein to anyone with lower extremity issues."

"Dr. Stein is truly an outstanding orthopedic surgeon. He reconstructed my Achilles tendon in January. I cannot say enough about how professional, responsive, and caring he and his staff have been. His PA, Lauren George is awesome. Dr. Stein is without a doubt one of the best doctors I have ever seen. I am so grateful that he was the one to do my surgery."

"Dr Stein and his staff provided top notch care of my damaged Achilles tendon. He provided ample information on causes and treatment options, was easy to talk to, and did not rush. We first tried non-surgical treatment before deciding surgery was needed for reconstruction of the tendon. At every step pre and post op, I got clear written instructions on what would happen and what I needed to do. The surgical staff were total professionals. My very experienced physical therapist said that the incision was perfect , and that the tendon was reattached with just the right amount of tension. During the months following surgery, I and my PT had clear directions from Dr Stein on appropriate movements and exercises for each phase of recovery, and he or his wonderful assistant Lauren were always available to answer questions and for regular checkups. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr Stein, who was independently recommended to me by 2 friends."
