I am 73 years of age and just had shoulder surgery with Dr. Giordano. Everyone said the surgery was very painful, but I came through it with very little discomfort. The doctor is thorough, caring and skilled. He has a wonderful bedside manner making you feel cared for and comfortable.

Dr. James F. Giordano was kind, courteous, with excellent bedside manner and keen diagnostic ability. Looks for best pathway to healing and treatment with many options rather rushing to surgical solutions. I have and will continue to recommend him.
