About Shahram S. Solhpour
Recognized as one of Southern California's top orthopedic surgeons, S. Shawn Solhpour, M.D., specializes in successfully treating knee and shoulder pain, whether caused by sports injury or early or advanced arthritis conditions. In addition to creating exceptionally high outcomes (as reported by the California Joint Replacement Registry), he has repeatedly won the Patients' Choice Award from a leading national consumer group for his near-perfect patient satisfaction scores.

Before joining St. Jude Heritage Medical Group, Dr. Solhpour completed his orthopedic residency at Harvard, followed by fellowships in Biological Joint Reconstruction (Brigham & Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School), Sports Medicine and Shoulder Surgery (University of Pittsburgh Medical Center), and Trauma (Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School).

Providence Patient
Dr Solpour always cheerful and professional.
Providence Patient
The fact that I had Dr Solhpour for my surgeon and he is not only a wonderful surgeon he cares about ones well being. His main concern is that the patient gets their life back. He is a rarity in this world especially since I was turned away by many doctors saying there was no problem. He has a wonderful bed side manner and a great smile. Now there were a couple scheduling problems. I had to drive approx. 3 hours to see him and I was late by 15-20 min. Due to an overturned truck. Well we were almost there and they said they couldn't see us. I was not happy. The drive itself is very difficult and painful. Another time they wanted us there 1 hr early for ex-rays which were hand written by the scheduler. After waiting an hour when 12;30 comes around it turned out we didn't need ex-rays. Well the doctor himself apologized and said he would make sure that would never happen again. I definitely recommend Dr. Solhpour even If I had to fly a thousand miles to see him.
Providence Patient
Im glad you asked. I think Dr. Solhpour is fantastic. He is caring, prepared, honest and has a great deal of dedication and integrity. Prior to this appointment I had to go downstairs to get X-rays. Though I did not need any water or snack, I was particularly struck by what a kind gesture to have water, crackers, masks and hand sanitizer for patients waiting. It just said "we care" and demonstrates thoughtfulness. The staff in xray were also incredibly friendly and engaging. Well done! I was disappointed to see the $[ID] valet service charge, mostly feel it disadvantages people who have a medical issue or disability that makes it hard to trek from the parking lot.

Providence Patient
Dr. Solhpour is very professional, and is a caring doctor. Often times, most doctors are always in a hurry, but I feel that this particular doctor cares for his patients and their welfare.
Providence Patient
Always a good experience when I see Dr. Sohlpour
Providence Patient
This is my orthopedic surgeon; was there for total knee replacement surgery follow up. He did listen to my concerns about pain; gave me a cortisone injection-which has helped quite a bit! The only "bad" experience was the initial wait time of 45 minutes. My opinion is that the office needs more help-more doctors, more medical assistants to help keep a timely flow of patients. My doctor is marvelous and I would have waited even longer to see him specifically.
Providence Patient
The care at Dr Solhpour's was very good. They obtained a much needed referral the same day so I could get a procedure that I needed.

I am extremely happy with Dr Solphour. I waited too long to find the perfect doctor who did an amazing job on both my knees. Just to describe the amazing work he did on my knees, I could walk 5 to 7 miles a day on cobbled streets on my recent travels.Thank you so much Dr Solphour. You are truly a great doctor. I am truly grateful to you especially when you took the challenge to do the replacements when other doctors refused to do them.I will always remember you in all my travels.
