Trust can be as important of a quality as skill, and Dr. Bonner possesses both. As I prepare for my future rotator cuff repair or replacement surgery, I trust that I am in the best hands possible width Dr. Bonner!

Addressed my shoulder issue with patience, professionalism and proficiency. He repaired my right shoulder in 2020 and I’m now seeking help for my left shoulder. I would not think of seeing anyone else for shoulder issues because my right repaired shoulder functions 100 percent.
Thank you Dr. Bonner.

It was great seeing Dr. Bonner and getting calming statement that surgery can be put off, until necessary. No rush, since I’m undergoing other issues at this time.

Dr. Bonner listened to me and never tries to recommend to get surgery before trying less invasive approaches such as physical therapy and injections.
