I would highly recommend Dr Cronin. He knew exactly what I needed surgically and also, listened to my concerns. Both at the consultation, day of surgery and with all he did on my shoulder the pain afterwards was minimal. I'm looking forward to my recovery and would definitely use Dr Cronin again!

2nd Pre Op appointment due to original scheduled surgery date canceled by the Dr. I chose to schedule out further due to some scheduled travel.
