I have been dealing with shoulder pain and broken down, and went to see Dr. David Hankins to see if I really had done something that needed some medical treatment. After the MRI was done and it was read, the next step was not surgery yet, thankfully. Instead, it was to do a cortisone shot to see if that helps. So I was not aware that was going to happen at that appointment. We talked long term goals and what was happening, and what I could and should do, and what I should not do. Once that was all laid out, it came time to do the shot. The nurse came in wih a tray and the stuff and left. The doctor came back and had me sit on the table. Well, my phobia kicked in, and I was in a panic. Thankful the doctor was able to step out and get a nurse, and she was able to help. Let's say there were tears, but we did it, and my shoulder feels so much better. Now I am getting close to the windows were is fading and I can already feel it again. So, next time, I think there is something different that we are going to do. If that does not work, then something that is back on the table is surgery. Dr. Hankins is super nice and cares about each patient and wants the best for them, and there are activities that they want to do and participate in. read more
