After a Banner orthopedic (hip) surgeon recommended two different surgeons for addressing my shoulder injury, I did some investigating and didn't like the reviews for these guys. So after some study on my part, I came across Dr. Yaccobucci and it sure paid off. If it's your shoulder, this is the man you want to see! And if you're one of those few people that take a true, in-depth interest in your condition (instead of just getting it fixed and leaving it at that), be sure to ask him detailed questions - he's more than happy to get technical with you. He fixed both my supraspinatus and long head bicep tendons that had torn from the bone and after 4 months I'm well on my way to recovery. I won't ever have the same range of motion I once did, but that comes with snipping-off the ragged ends of torn shoulder tendons. Trust me, you won't be sorry with Dr. Yaccobicci's care and expertise.
