Repaired my shoulder which had a complete tear and a partial tear and fixed a bone spur while she was at it. Also, repositioned my bicep muscle in the same operation. Now my shoulder is almost normal. With a little more physical therapy I'm sure it will soon be back to 100%. Very good surgeon and very professional as well as sympathetic. Highly recommended!

Dr. Long and her team are the best. I had seen her previously for shoulder issues and had shoulder surgery performed by Dr. Long. I was in recently for knee issues, which her and her team helped identify my issues, took the time to answer all my questions, and showed care and concern for the pain I was experiencing.

Dr Long is absolutely knowledgable, very easy to talk to about any of your concerns. She does not rush you thru your appointment and answers all questions you have for her. Dr Long is very caring about her patients and only wants the best to help her patients feel better. I would absolutely recommend Dr Long !

Dr. Long truly listened to me and was so helpful with all her suggestions. We came up with a treatment plan together. She is so compassionate and I felt she truly cared for me, not just my issue.
