Everything went perfectly well. I had reverse shoulder replacement a number of years ago. It has been 100% successful and I am still playing tennis, exercising and doing all of my own house and yard work. I am so glad I had it done and the recovery period was easy with little pain. I did 6 weeks of physical therapy and after that I was ready to go

My review is about the staff. It's not rocket Science, when you call a medical facility you need help with something, not an attitude at the other end of the phone. Maria was beyond rude and unhelpful and not a good representation of any doctor. I couldnt give no stars but would have if I could.

Dr. Warren performed my ACL and meniscus tear surgery. My experience with him was nothing short of spectacular. He projects this aura of confidence which completely calmed my nerves. I am almost 12 months post surgery and my knee feels fantastic. I am back to 100% and normal activity. I highly recommend Dr. Warren and his staff. TOP NOTCH SERVICE

Dr. Warren is the best. He did an A C joint resection, cleaned out arthritis, and removed fraying on my right shoulder 4 years ago. It's still better than new.

the guy is the best. he doesn't have the best side manner, but he is the best doctor. if you want bedside manner get a Labrador retriever; but for a medical problem see no one else.
