Great evaluation of problem and solution.
Dr Paul did my Reverse total shoulder replacement and I am so very pleased with the range of motion I have only 4 months out from surgery.
Attentive, professional, glad we have access to top notch surgeons like this in Cookeville
Took his time to understand my shoulder pain. We sat down and walked through all my PT, and Chiro steps before coming to him for more answers.
Excellent service
Very personable and friendly, great bedside manner, so to speak.
He was excellent! He listened to me and he really paid attention to what I said! I'm always grateful when Dr.s and Nurses act like they really care! It makes you feel better knowing someone really wants to help! Thank you All ! Everyone there was kind and considerate!
Very knowledgeable. Made me feel very comfortable with asking questions and understanding what his assessment was. Highly recommend Dr Pahl!
Have highly recommended Dr. Pahl ...my husband has not had any pain in his right shoulder since he came out of the operating room after having reverse shoulder surgery...even with PT he never really had pain...just a feeling of some pressure with certain exercises they performed...well pleased and will continue to recommend Dr. Pahl
Every understanding and really listen to the ongoing right thigh pain i am experiencing for over 2 months
