Dr. Marushack provided excellent care. He waited until I was ready to have surgery then did a excellent shoulder replacement surgery. He made me feel safe and he addressed my concerns. My primary care provider, physical therapists both expressed to me that Dr. Marushack did an excellent job. That says a lot!!! The staff was excellent too. To the Emerge Ortho team, thank you.
