I really the Dr. He is clear and speaks english rather than medical. He is also gentle and not quick to rush to surgery. Thank you
My shoulder is healing well ! I’m surprised that it’s so fast . I just wish it was explained more in deal . What is going to happen and what is expected After surgery . I didn’t get a hand book I guess . So I babied my shlder instead of working it .i wish he wasn’t in such a hurry I wld have like to ask more questions. Other wise the pain was very minimal.
