Diagnosis/Procedure: Lt Shoulder Rotator Cuff Repair
Remarks: I would like to mention the great care I received by Dr Harry Shaia and his staff pre, during, and after my arthroscopic surgery. Following my accident, I was concerned (this being my first surgery) as to what to expect and my chance of recovery. Dr Shaia and his great caring staff of professionals took the time every step of the way to answer all my questions, perform a successful surgery and follow-up regarding the progress of my physical therapy to ensure a successful recovery. Only six (6) months later I almost have 100% use of the affected shoulder. I would recommend Dr Harry Shaia and his great team in the unfortunate event myself or any of my loved ones need orthopedic services.

Diagnosis/Procedure: Lt Shoulder Rotator Cuff Repair
Remarks: The surgery and care that Dr. Shaia provided me on my rotator cuff surgery on my shoulder was fantastic! The surgery was almost a non-event, I had virtually no pain during or after the procedure – an operation that I had been dreading for some time. The care that Dr. Shaia and team gave me during and afterwards was wonderful and made the recovery very very easy — and I feel great with full use of my shoulder My physical therapist also was able to fast track me through that without any issues. I highly recommend that anyone needing this surgery go to Dr. Shaia. He and his team are #1!
