Dear Dr. Woodson, Once again I thank you for the expert care you have given me in my second knee replacement. I am so happy with the outcomes of having “new” knees and being able to get back to my activities and mobility. It truly is a gift that you have given me.
BOSI Orthopedic Specialists
The Beginning
In 2017 Dr. Christopher Woodson and Dr. Raymond Klug founded Beach Orthopaedic Specialty Institute (BOSI), the premier orthopedic provider to Orange County, Greater Long Beach, and the South Bay of Los Angeles, CA. In 2021, Beach Orthopaedics welcomed Dr. Johannes Bernbeck who has over 30 years experience in spine surgery. In 2025, BOSI expanded its team with the addition of Dr. Armin Arshi, an orthopedic surgeon specializing in hip replacement and knee replacement and reconstruction. The vision of the practice is to provide the highest quality evidence-based orthopedic care in the area within a personalized and efficient office setting.
Top-Notch Treatment
BOSI’s orthopedic surgeons are all fellowship trained. In addition, they are passionate about clinical outcomes, exploring the newest innovations in orthopedic surgery, clinical research, and explaining treatment options to patients in a systematic fashion. Non-operative modalities are the mainstay of treatment for most patients. When these treatments fail, surgery is carefully considered and personalized for each patient.
State-of-the-art Office
Our office facility is state-of-the-art with in-house x-ray, ultrasound, biologics, bracing, casting, and all facets of orthopedic care. Patient rooms have been thoughtfully designed with large wireless imaging screens to allow for careful review of radiographs or MRIs with patients and families. Beach Orthopaedic Specialty Institute is conveniently located adjacent to the Los Alamitos Medical Center.
A Personal Approach
The goal of Beach Orthopedic’s surgeons is to help patients make the best informed decisions regarding their treatment. The staff at BOSI is exceptional and hand-picked for their years of experience, compassionate personalities, and outstanding work ethic. Our friendly office staff is like a family and takes pride in guiding patients every step along the way from the initial check-in process all the way through your recovery.

Testimonials
I am writing this review for my 85-year-old mother. I am a recently retired chiropractor with 35 years of practice experience. I feel this lifetime of experience has given me a little extra insight when reviewing a physician, particularly when regarding the spine. My mother had lower back, buttock and leg pain which left her unable to walk without bending forward. She could only walk if she was bent forward, using a walker or hanging onto a shopping cart for support. She was unable to stand up straight without experiencing sharp, shooting pain in her buttock and leg. This is called a “Shopping Cart Sign”, which indicates severe spinal stenosis. As you can imagine, I had lots of questions for Dr. Bernbeck. Many of them more technical than the average person would be able to ask. Usually, I would get a second opinion. However, I was so satisfied with Dr. Bernbeck’s demeanor, and his honest, straightforward answers to my questions, that we decided to go forward with the procedure without a second opinion. We could not be more happy with the decision. Following the procedure, Dr. Bernbeck responded quickly to adjust pain medication to keep my mother comfortable. There was usually a return call within two hours. It is now four weeks after surgery. My mother walked a mile yesterday with no pain. There is still some off and on soreness, which Dr. Bernbeck told us we should expect for a few more months. Overall, this was an excellent experience, and I would highly recommend Dr. Bernbeck to any of my friends or colleagues. My review – 10 out of 10.
The care I received from Dr. Arshi was exceptional. I can’t speak highly enough of Dr. Arshi. He was not only knowledgeable but also took the time to address all of my questions and concerns, while always being available via calls or texts. He did a great job on my two total knee replacements. I experienced a very fast recovery, with no issues and I am now walking pain free. I highly recommend Dr. Arshi.
You made such a difference, and it is so deeply appreciated. Thank you for everything.
Dear Dr. Klug and Staff,
Thank you all so much for being there for me during this pandemic. A special thank you fo Dr. Klug for doing what you do and helping so many people along the way. You guys are all great!!!
No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted. Your allowing me to continue another (at home therapy) for a second session meant so much for me. Milton’s Alzheimer’s is a struggle to monitor.
Thank you phrase is simple and the words are few, but behind them are a whole lot of appreciation.
Dr. Woodson, Thank you for two very pleasant hip replacement operations. The freedom that comes from being able to walk, hike, and do aerobics is incredible. I also never thought I would be able to sit cross-legged in this life again, either! Your work is so much appreciated. With grateful thanks.
I have just had wonderful care and have had a good relationship with “ENTIRE” staff and Dr. Woodson. Thank You for such good care of my shoulder and foot when I needed it taken care of. You will be highly recommended by my family. Thank you Dr. Woodson for such excellent care of your patients. If ever anyone need a good Orthopaedic Specialist. Yes i will sure recommend you. Again, Thank you for your care.
thank you for “fixing” me.
Dr. Woodson, I can’t believe that it’s been a year since you did my double knee replacement! You did an amazing job, as I am now receiving my quality of life back! I’m retired now and am enjoying my life again. Thank you so much for giving me that gift. I’m so grateful.
