I was greeted into Dr. Langland office and his nurse was thorough in her assessment. When the doctor entered, he was pleasant and explained the injury and used a model to describe the area involved and how the surgery would repair the damage to my shoulder. He did a thorough examination of my shoulder and assessed the damage and gave me my options.
