Friendly, listens, and explained his thought.process to us.
He was straight forward with the issue and he smelled really good
Excellent demeanor, knowledgeable, and committed.
Sharp, efficient and great people skills. Can’t ask for anything better than that. In my humble opinion.
I cannot enough good things about Dr. Brolin. He performed total replacement shoulder surgery on me and my experience was great. He thoroughly explained everything clearly, took time to answer all of my questions and is extremely personable. He relieved my fears about surgery and recovery by communicating clearly preoperative and postoperatively. I only had a few days of well controlled pain and 2 and half weeks post-op, I have no pain. Thank you Dr. Brolin. You without a doubt are a very talented surgeon.
Very informative, addressed all my concerns,
Always friendly and considerate wonderful surgeon
