Left the visit before I was done asking questions- I literally had to follow him into the hallway. No advice on pain management or activity restrictions. Just said 3 weeks was reasonable and to get an mri that may or may not show something and if it doesn’t then there really isn’t anything they can do and just wait because the pain and limitations should just resolve.

Dr. Henshaw made my nervous 17 year old, football player, feel comfortable before, during and after his surgery. After a lengthy recovery, my son is pain free and has recovered 100%. Dr. Henshaw also did both of my shoulders and I have been pain free for years. I highly recommend Dr. Henshaw and his entire team.
