Dr. Sean S. Rajaee is an Orthopaedic Surgeon specializing in minimally invasive hip and knee replacements, with a strong clinical and research interest in advancing technologies within total joint arthroplasty.

A minimally invasive open procedure that can relieve you of pain, correct your leg deformity, and eventually help you to resume your regular daily activities. To be clear, although the procedure is done through a minimally invasive approach, you will still require an incision (length varies by patient) in order to perform the procedure and place the hip implants.
An outpatient minimally invasive open knee surgery that can relieve you of arthritis pain and eventually help you to resume your regular daily activities. Partial knee replacement is for patients with arthritis limited to only one compartment of the knee.
The surgery resurfaces the bones of your knee joint by taking out the damaged cartilage and replacing the ends of the bones with artificial metal components that reproduce the anatomy of a normal knee.A plastic component rests in between your knee joint that allows your knee to move smoothly again.

Through a combination of the latest perioperative and surgical techniques, we offer patients the ability to recover from surgery in the comfort of their own homes. Many research studies have been done showing that most patients undergoing total joint replacement have improved recoveries in their home compared to staying in hospitals or in rehabilitation facilities.
Sometimes patients develop problems with their original joint replacement (knee or hip) and may require revision surgery (otherwise known as a REDO). Typical problems requiring a revision may include: loosening of implants, fractures, wear and tear of the parts or infection. Revision total knees and revision total hips are complex problems and Dr. Rajaee has the fellowship training to tackle these problems with the best technology and techniques.

My wife's hip replacement was a miracle. Dr. Rajaee and his office are incredible - so responsive, kind and helpful. As for the doctor, he is very clear in his explanations and descriptions plus he really listens to his patient. I'm so impressed with the whole experience. And, the best part is that my wife's hip feels amazing. Her recovery was very quick and exactly as described by the doctor (maybe even faster). We would give Dr. Rajaee the highest recommendation possible.

Dr. Rajaee came highly recommended and I would like to add my voice to those sentiments. I had a full hip replacement a few weeks ago and feel better than I have in well over a year. My only wish is that I had come to him sooner. You don't have anything to worry about if you're in Dr. Rajaee's very capable hands.

Dr. Rajaee treated me successfully for my right hip replacement in mid
September 2021. My recovery is smooth and steady, without any incident. My joyful discovery is that I regained my gait and can walk without limping. I am so thankful to Dr. Rajaee for performing my right hip replacement and giving me back my freedom. My scar is a minimal smooth line.
I thank Dr. Rajaee for his surgical expertise and caring attitude, and
kind bedside manor. I shall without hesitation consult Dr. Rajaee
again for my knee or left hip problem if ever needed. Thank you

So very happy with the outcome of my recent knee replacement surgery by Dr. Sean Rajaee and his team. Couldn’t ask for better care. Explanations of the procedures were clearly outlined by Dr. Rajaee and Physician Assistant Dan Marcellino. The surgery at the Cedar Sinai Hospital was expertly done and the post op care was excellent. My recovery is coming along nicely and I’m already walking around some of my favorite nature trails. Again I want to emphasize my appreciation to Dr. Rajaee and his team for a job well done. Sincerely Christopher Cesar

From the moment I met Dr Rajaee on June 18 for a consultation, I've had an extraordinary experience. I was diagnosed with hip dysplasia 7 years ago by a different doctor after the birth of my second child and told to "go walk in a pool and come back when you can't sleep". I was told the only remedy was a hip replacement, and I was devastated.
Over the following 7 years, I did walk in a pool, try physical therapy and have an unsuccessful cortisone shot in Feb 2020 (by yet another doctor).I had given up on doing anything but stay in pain, then my GP (Dr Ara Thomassian) referred me to Dr. Rajaee

It was indeed, my very good fortune to find Dr. Sean Rajaee, Orthopedic surgeon at Cedar Sinai. I had come over from Hawaii to find a more progressive surgeon, having suffered a deteriorating hip for 2 years.
I had done my research and knew I wanted an anterior muscle sparing, minimal replacement, and was also stubborn about wanting minimal anesthesia.
I waited 3 months for an appointment with one doctor who my friend had referred me too. It was a disappointment to say the least. He would not listen to my concerns about general anesthesia, it was the just the way it had to be

I had my right hip replacement surgery on the morning of September 1st. I am in my 4th week of recovery and will be returning to (office) work on October 4th.
I was very nervous about having something (foreign) put into my body but Dr. Rajaee talked me through these concerns into a comfortable state of mind that I couldn't schedule my surgery soon enough.
Dan Marcelino PA was also instrumental in keeping me informed and at ease each step of the way.
The staff at Cedars were so informative upon arrival for my surgery.
I can not believe how relaxed I was that morning. Both Dr. Rajaee and Dan

LOOK DOC, I CAN ALREADY DANCE THE CHA CHA!” said I at my three-week post-op visit with Dr. Rajaee. I had asked him to set the remote control for my new hip to tango. Jesting aside, my hip replacement experience with Dr. Rajaee could not have gone better. I moved to LA for 6 months specifically to have him do it at Cedars-Sinai. But, from the front office’s Tracy to surgery scheduler Jessica, to P.A. Dan (the Man) Marcelino, and so many others, Dr. Rajaee and his team sailed over the many bumps in the road we encountered.

I have just past the two month mark since my Total Hip Replacement surgery performed by Dr. Rajaee and I could not be happier. I had delayed the surgery while enduring continuing and increasing pain and wished that I had done it sooner. I was limping and had progressed to where I needed a cane to walk. I am 58 years old and now have my normal life back again!
I spoke to Dr. Rajaee after reviewing xrays confirming what was needed in advance of the surgery. He and his team provided a clear understanding of what to expect throughout the process. His admin staff including Tracy and Jessica were very
