What Patients Are Saying...

I highly recommend Dr. Daruwalla. I was very nervous about having surgery on my thumbs and he put me at ease and was very professional and kind. My surgeries were successful and the pain is gone. The entire staff is wonderful, from making an appointment, to the check-in, medical assistants, nurses, anesthesiologist & Dr. Daruwalla. He gave me options for treatment and I felt he was helping me make a decision, not making the decision for me. He answered my questions with thoughtfulness, and I trust him to care for me in the best possible way.

Dr. Daruwalla is absolutely one of the best physicians I have ever had the pleasure to encounter. He is personable, witty and extremely knowledgeable. He also made me feel very comfortable about treating the problem that I had come to him with and also went out of his way to schedule an appointment for me that was convenient and timely. I am grateful that I am having surgery with him and highly recommend him.

I was treated with the most attentive, careful, considerate and respectful manner by experts in their field. Dr. Daruwalla is an excellent surgeon and an approachable human being. The entire staff was great during my hand procedure - caring and not perfunctory. I’ve recommended Seattle Hand and Dr. Daruwalla to friends. It’s also rare for a doctor to take time to thoroughly explain procedure and to call and check to see how you’re doing after surgery. It is very much appreciated.
