Dr. Snyder has been amazing! We were so blessed have been referred to him. He is the perfect fit for my son. He prepared us for all the pros and cons of recovery and has been so encouraging every step of the way. My son plays all sports and his favorite is golf. With Dr. Snyder's sports history, he truly understands!

His skills are fantastic. My left shoulder replacement feels fantastic just after 2 weeks post surgery. He has the best bedside manner of any doctor I've ever visited. The two of those go hand in hand and alleviate any fears you may have about this surgery.

The best all around. Dr Snyder did a reverse shoulder replacement on my right shoulder and today he repaired to tears in my left shoulder. Best decision I have ever made. Thank you to his great team.
