“(Above) you will find my scorecard from the same day displaying my overall score of 85.  My shoulder feels excellent and I have regained full range of motion.  I have been in suny Palm Beach Gardens Florida for the past month, enjoying being able to play golf on the weekends thanks to you.  Thank you again for a job well done!"

“Hi Doctor Thanks to you I'm still going & having fun.

More than 300 of the best masters level alpine skiers of the United States and Canada raced in Sunday River this past week for the 2006 USSA Skier Edge Alpine Masters National Championships in downhill, Slalom, giant slalom, super giant slalom. It was the culmination of the racing season for these racers who have qualified for the Nationals by being the best in their respective divisions of the United States Ski Association, each of which has a quota for these races. Masters are skiers over the age of 21. There are 14 classes devided according to age, in masters racing. The Masters Nationals at Sunday River had two competitors racing in class 13-14 over the age of 85-99 the oldest being 90. There was 38 ref. competitors over the age of 70. Most are between the ages of 40 and 60.

Thanks to you I raced in good health in all the events but completed only  the three needed to capture the combined championship in clas s 11 ages 75 to 79. I led in all the downhill training runs but made a mistake in the race and landed in the fence. Yes I put your operation to the test, again you did a great job. The printable photos from left to right are GS  3rd place, SL 1st place, SG 2nd place and Combined 1st place which is the ultimate place to capture.

The Masters season has come to a close and thanks to you I was able to ski pain free with full motion. This summer I plan to work on strength training which always take a little longer. In closing I wish you and your family a happy life.”

"I had my arthroscopic massive rotator cuff repair in March 2009 and now 24 months after surgery I am 100%. I am 69 years old and am physically fit. Here I am on my 1200cc Ducati Multistrada motorcycle. Before surgery I could hardly move my arm and had pain all of the time. I was told my tendon could not be repaired. With Deepest Appreciation..."

“Here's the photo you requested. It's still a little hard for me to believe I was on the Great Wall 6 weeks past-o!

I hope I don't need your services again, but if I should, I would do it all over in a heartbeat!

Thanks for everything, and I look forward to hearing from you somewhere down the road.”

“I had a "massive" rotator cuff repair arthroscopically.  As a retired police officer I lived for one year with very extensive right shoulder damage. I had lost 90 to 95 percent of the use of my arm. I was in intense pain for that entire year.  I should not have put off this surgery for that period of time.

The surgery was remarkable in its success, and has given me back a life that I thought was permanently gone.

Six months after surgery: I am at 80% to 85% range of motion and still improving. I was 67 years old at time of surgery in March of 09'.

I have no pain today!"

"Six months after my arthroscopic rotator cuff repair my arm feels great. I am hitting the ball longer and straighter than before the surgery. My friends want to know if you put a cannon in my shoulder? It was a long process but, well worth it. Thanks again"
