Dr. Throckmorton and Christian were very informative and thorough in explaining what I’m experiencing with my shoulder. They were very professional and the bedside manner was superb!!! Campbell Clinic’s process from the check in to the check out is excellent.

I have not had any problems with the shoulder replacement Dr. Throckmorton performed on my left shoulder. From the first day until now (3 months) I am completely satisfied. Pain has been well managed and he is so thorough in checking to be sure the progress is spot on.

This was a follow-up visit, and everything ran smoothly. Probably the quickest in and out for a Dr’s appointment I’ve ever had. Take advantage of their on-line check in option. Dr. Throckmorton is great as well as Campbell’s.
