Dr. Bassam A. Masri

Just had a hip replacement by Doctor Masri at the UBC Hospital. I found Dr. Masri to be a doctor of few words but very accommodating when it came to my wishes as a patient. I am over weight and had a few restrictions that made it more difficult for him to do the operation. He agreed to meet these conditions and still do it. I only stayed one night in the hospital and went home the next day. The operation went very well and I am now healing and learning to walk normally with out pain. The care at the UBC hospital was excellent and Julie, Doctor Masri’s receptionist is an exceptional person who arranged everything so I could proceed with the operation and answered any concerns that I had. Hope none of you ever retire as we need good surgeons and receptionists.

Had my knee replacement over 2 years ago still frozen. Saw the rehabilitation doctor and told surgeon cut half inch off to much off my leg. $2000 knee brace later and 2 years of physio and still not walking more than a block.

My right knee is coming back to life ,i am walking straight again, the pain is way down and sixteen days after total knee replacement i like to say thanks to doctor Bas Masri for a great surgery and to the UBC staff that help me during the time at the hospital

The best knee surgeon in Vancouvrr. The whole process was so well run and informative. The results were a knee that is solid and pain free. The recovery was smooth and progressive if you follow all the instructions. Very friendly and competent staff. One glitch on my second knee Post op exam was a Fellow. She squeezed a very small pimple of infection at the top of the scar ands turned it into a large infection. Do not let a student touch your knee until Dr. Masri is there. It was hard to heal and the most painful part of my knee replacement The staff at UBC are exceptional. Thank you for two great knees.

Today I am celebrating my fourth anniversary of my new knee.I can ski again. I can dance again. I can walk again. Pain free. Drug free.I shall be forever thankful to Dr Masri and his team for giving me back my mobility.His straightforward, skilled and honest approach was appreciated.The wait times are long... but the result was unequaled.Edit: 2022 - Adding a foto of my “special place”… that I can only get to again, thanks to Dr. Masri. ❤️Forever grateful. ❤️

Dr Masri replaced my right hip in April 2021 and my left hip yesterdayExceptionally fast recoveryDo your exercises before and after surgeryOne day after surgery I am walking with only a minor limpI went to my first Physio session two weeks after my right hip was replaced and didn’t even need a cane

Just had knee surgery May 24 with Dr. Basam Masri.Everything went extremely well.Feel like a million bucksThanks Dr. Masri

Since 2014 I have had both knees (bilateral) and both hips replaced, after a lifetime of disability. For the first time in over 50 years I am pain free and completely mobile. (I was out shoveling snow this morning!) Dr Masri is brilliant and he has an amazing assistant in Melanie. If you are lucky enough to be referred to that clinic just be patient when stuck in long waits for your appointments. The results will be worth it.

Dr. Masri did an excellent job on my hip. After his surgeries he stopped by in the hospital to see how I was doing.I'm going to ask him if he can do my knee surgery too
