Jim Chun-Jen Hsu

Dr. Hsu performed Tommy John on my right arm in 2010. My elbow healed and I was able to get back to throwing a baseball BUT I regret taking his recommendation to use a tendon in my right forearm to rebuild my elbow ligament. I trusted Dr. Hsu’s experience that this technique would not result in diminished function of my forearm and wrist. I should not have. Since my surgery, I have significantly reduced function in my right wrist and forearm - my grip never got back to full strength, I experience fatigue after using my forearm muscles for a short time (gripping, twisting, scrubbing, hammering), I can't do curls when lifting and my right wrist sometimes pops randomly and it’s REALLY painful. Hand doctor says I am developing arthritis because of the instability. I regret going along with Dr. Hsu's recommendation. The tendon was in my arm for a reason. Dr. Hsu should know better than to remove a perfectly good body part. This is bad medicine.

Dr Hsu was very good in explaining my knee problem. He was confident that he would be able to take care of my torn medial and lateral meniscus. 10 days post surgery and I can already feel the difference and am walking without a limp. Overall I am very pleased with him and his expertise.

He has operated on both of my shoulders due to injuries. I wouldn’t let anyone else operate on my shoulders!

I visited several orthopedic surgeons to get opinions after I injured my Knee skiing. We in Seattle are lucky to have many experienced surgeons who do many procedures per week, so all were excellent. What distinguished Dr. Hsu was his open communication style that brought me into the decision and offered me options in a clear, unhurried way. I chose him to do my procedure (ACL Replacement) and he was able to fit me into his schedule rapidly. My recovery has been fantastic.

Perfect- 7 surgeries and counting. I am a full time professional athlete. I have personally had 3 surgeries with Dr. Hsu. One was minor, the other two were major (2 knees and one shoulder). I was initially referred to him by both my physical therapist and the head trainer from my university. Both said they see the best outcomes from him. Specifically, they said that he is very precise in his work. So not only are his repairs excellent, but he does minimal damage to surrounding tissue. I h
