getting to meet and speak with Dr Marra and his team was an AMAZING experience. Dr Marra was friendly and courteous. He explained to me in detail what was going on with my shoulder, told me what options of treatment I had and explained what surgery and recovery would look like. Then he patiently answered my questions. I had been in pain for several weeks and wanted to get a plan in place. I felt confident in and comfortable with Dr Marra and his team so quickly that I knew I wanted Dr Marra do the surgery for me. I left his office not having any second thoughts and was excited that a plan was finally in place!
