Rodney A Gabriel Jr, MD

Dr. Gabriel performed surgery on my right shoulder in August of 2012. My rotator cuff and ligaments were all torn to sh! t, and he made it as good as new again. In fact, my right shoulder joint is now way better than my left. This guy is a SPECIALIST. He knows what he’s doing, and I am so very grateful that I put my wellbeing (and in particular, my shoulder joint) into his very capable hands. If I had to get any sort of joint surgery again, I wouldn’t even consider another doctor. He’s the best, and that is that.

Dr Gabriel is fantastic. He has an excellent bedside manner and has helped me for years due to unfortunate accidents. He has diagnosed me despite the errors of others and has changed my life and helped me stick to my active fitness routine. This past year he has treated me for my ankle since rolling it. I know I’m in excellent hands and no matter the end result he will help me to stay on track with my rigorous work and fitness schedule. Your one of the best in your fields Dr. If your a patient looking for an excellent sports medicine surgeon and want amazing results then look no further, he is the right doctor for you!

I have been meaning to write a review for Dr Gabriel for a while now but life has kept me from doing it sooner. I had a sport accident and tore my left knee meniscus and had to get surgery. My first surgeon also from cedars did not seem very attentive so I went to Dr Gabriel after hearing of his good work from patients in the waiting room. I looked him up here and saw the negative reviews and they worried me but I still went to see him. He did recommend surgery, and I was lucky to take a cancellation for an upcoming date. He is very serious and intimidating at first but has a great personality once you get to know him. He was not mean or arrogant and was very knowledgable and answered all my questions and concerns very patiently. I did however had to wait for him over 45 mins past the appointment time each time because he was seeing patients for other Drs that were not available. My surgery went well and I healed very quickly.
It’s worth mentioning that he made himself available after my surgery when I had a bad reaction to the painkillers and helped me through it veryyyy promptly!!!
I saw him 3 or 4 times after the surgery for check ups and he continued to be very caring and courteous.
I was worried about a scar on my knee and he very confidently had told me that it would not scar and I scoffed at the time! Low and behold it did not! I am fully recovered and able to run and hike! Thanks to the expertise of Dr Gabriel.
Very highly recommend! Check him out! You will not be disappointed!

Simply put… if you want an outstanding result from your surgery, Dr. Gabriel is your guy. Top notch surgeon.

Fucking unless piece of shit, please spread the word. Took no time to talk or explain, don’t EVER EVER go to this guy. How do one contact people higher up to get this guy out of business?!? Unbelievably unprofessional stay away folks…

UPDATE: I have had not further contact with Dr. Gabriel but I encourage you to check out my reviews on Unilocal and other medical websites for Dr. David Golden (
) who just performed my knee surgery on 9÷2÷14. The differences will AMAZE you.

Don’t come here if you have a job or abide by any sort of schedule. Been waiting to see the doctor for 95 MINUTES and still no sign of the doctor! And I had an appointment which I showed up ON TIME for. THIS IS A DISASTER.
