John L. Masonis, MD - ORTHOCAROLINA HIP & KNEE CENTER

I am 10 months in recovery from a full knee replacement and have been experiencing less than optimal results thus far. After consulting with my original surgeon, I sought a second opinion from Dr. Masonis and I am so happy that I did. He was able to identify a placement issue from my original surgery and provided very detailed explanations as to what my issues are and how he felt he could successfully remedy them. I live 4 hours away from Charlotte, but will definitely travel any distance to have Dr. Masonis perform the necessary surgery on my knee.

I am very impressed with the level of attention that I received in my pre-op consult for a left hip replacement. Dr. Li spent a long time going over my MRI’s and X-rays, explaining them in detail to my wife and I and answering all of our questions. Then Dr. Masonis spent a long time answering another list of questions we had about the upcoming procedure itself. We never felt rushed or patronized. (In my initial contact with the Ortho Carolina office, I had experienced some hiccups in making sure my medical records were received, as they were transitioning to a new computer procedure. Pro tip: forget the phone or email and communicate with staff over the MyChart app.)

Dr. Masonis was great!! I have a history of hip and leg problems since birth. Dr. Masonis completed my total hip replacement with the addition of lengthening my leg to make my legs the same length. Now I am able to get back to my favorite job as a firefighter and enjoying my life without pain! Thank you!!
