I never experienced the Care from a ortho surgeon before in my life. But I will say Joseph and his team are the best. They really do care about your health and your concerns. It's very scary going under the knife. I feel comfortable all my questions were answered when I was there. Thank you team

Jo, did a great job listening to my history. He did a number of muscle tests to verify that the severity of my L shoulder dysfunction required an MRI. He demonstrated exceptional empathy, professionalism, and expertise. Frankly, I have seen many ortho doctors over the years due to my feeling that there was something wrong with my shoulder due to my hypermobility. The arm is too wobbly and didn't stay in place as I worked with weights. Jo was the FIRST medical professional to order an MRI. Why? I finally presented with significant pain and weakness which has interfered with my ability to sleep and perform ADL's. Such problems may have been preventable, had early testing via the MRI had been done.
