What patients say

Real accounts of the consultations and treatments received at the practice.

  • ★★★★★
    I came to Dr. Nițulescu with a knee problem that had troubled me for months. A clear diagnosis, a treatment plan I could actually understand, and a much faster recovery than I expected.
    Maria T. Patient, 54 — knee replacement
  • ★★★★★
    Professional and empathetic. He explained every step of the arthroscopic procedure and personally followed up on my recovery. I recommend him with confidence.
    Andrei M. Patient, 32 — meniscus injury

    After years of lower back pain, I finally found a doctor who doesn’t just prescribe pills. An integrated, unhurried approach with concrete results.

    I’m an amateur athlete and an old sprain was seriously limiting my running. The PRP treatment Dr. Nițulescu recommended got me back on track within a few weeks.
    Vlad C. Patient, 38 — sports injury
  • ★★★★★
    I appreciated his honesty: he told me plainly when surgery wasn’t necessary and suggested a conservative option. That, to me, is what makes a good doctor.
