Shoulder Pain? You’re Old.
Self-verified patient of Dr. Roger N Chams - Posted on November 28th, 2018
That’s what Dr. Chams told me. I asked for a CT scan to take to the next shoulder Doc I was going to see. Who took one look at my CT scan, and said: “You rotator cuff is hanging by a tiny bit of muscle, and you’re getting a new reverse shoulder because of the destroyed joint.” Got the new shoulder, had months of PT. Life goes on.
Great recovery from Rotator Cuff Surgery
Self-verified patient of Dr. Roger N Chams - Posted on October 26th, 2018
Today I celebrate my 1 Year Anniversary from a full tear Rotator Cuff Surgery with Dr. Chams. I have exceeded not only the Practice's goals but my own. I followed Dr. Chams recovery protocol and fully committed to my PT; never missing a session and always doing my exercises as prescribed. I researched a lot of surgeons prior to choosing Dr. Chams, due to the large tear, but I believed that my decision was based on what I envisioned for my future. Thank you Dr. Chams and team at IBJI.
5 stars!

Dr. Chams and my ACL reconstruction
Self-verified patient of Dr. Roger N Chams - Posted on April 3rd, 2018
A big thank you to Dr. Chams and staff for helping me through ACL reconstruction after a soccer injury. I was quite apprehensive about going through the surgery and the months of recovery. Surgery day went very smoothly. Arrived at hospital at 8am and was back at home by noon. Dr. Chams and staff were very polite, knowledgeable and answered any of my questions regarding surgery. Post operative pain was pretty minimal so I know that Dr. Chams did a great job. For the rehab, they provided me with recommendations for physical therapists who were close by and this allowed me to maintain my everyday life responsibilities without too much disruption. Recovery progressed very well and I'm back to running and playing soccer with my kids at 7 months post surgery. Overall, I give Dr. Chams and his staff an A+ and would not hesitate to recommend them for anyone in need of ACL reconstruction. Todd Hopkins
