Dr. Edward Joy is an excellent doctor and surgeon. Dr. Joy did a full shoulder replacement on my right shoulder last year 2021. And, this year 2022 I'm having my left shoulder replaced by Dr. Joy. Dr. Joy has a great personality that makes you feel like you've known him all your life. He is just like his name says, he is a Joy to know & have him as your surgeon. Excellent.

I cannot say enough about Dr. Joy, his PA, and staff. Dr. Joy listened to me explain about the pain I was having, completed his exam, and then took the time to clearly discuss his diagnosis with recommended treatment options. I was really struggling with significant pain, and after treatment I'm now back to working out. I find it rare to see a doctor that combines such a comforting bedside manner and quality medical care. His staff were all very friendly and accommodating. I am so glad I was referred to him by another physician, and would highly recommend him to my family and friends.

Dr Joy is an expert in shoulder surgery. He performed my reverse total left shoulder replacement. The post-op course was remarkably smooth. While the post-op pain was minimal, after the block wore off it did increase. He quickly saw to adding on the pain medication to keep me pain free. All the healthcare workers he involved in my care were top notch, from the home care RN, home care PT and then later Dan the physical therapist at his office building. He encourages your efforts through physical therapy to return to normal function, which I did.
