I am very grateful for Dr. Vezeridis , I can’t thank him enough for his dedication to getting me healthy again.
I was very satisfied with Dr Vezeridis who performed a “reverse surgical operation on my shoulder”. He explained how it would be done and what I should expect after it was completed. I was comfortable asking him questions prior and post of the surgery and 9 mos. Later I am feeling very well even though this surgical procedure requires a full 12 mos. of recovery! I highly recommend Dr. Peter Vezeridis .
