I am very lucky to have had Dr. Drew repair my torn rotator cuff. I cannot say enough about him or his staff. The hospital where the procedure was done was excellent also, the staff especially. Dr. Drew’s nurse, Shelly, is very kind and professional. I promise you your needs will be met and you will be very happy with the results.
