What can I say other than Dr. Mehalik is amazing. He really listens to you and provides treatment that addressed my injury. I can’t recommend him enough to anyone with a shoulder injury. Also he is very cognizant of not “over treating” jiust for the sake of an office visit or copay. No matter how busy he is.which is usually very busy, I always feel like I’m his most important patient. Me and my rotator cuff are lucky to have found him!!!
