After wasting time with a doctor closer to home, I decided the health of my knee's medial meniscus was worth the journey to have Dr. Nicholas Colyvas of SF do his magic! I am so thankful he and his team fixed my tear with minimal invasion and pain, plus incorporating excellent communications all along the way! I highly, highly recommend this meniscus specialist!! read more

Dr Colyvas performed arthroscopies on both my knee injuries (about 5 years apart). I have since moved away from California but if I ever needed to see an Orthopedist for a major knee or joint issue, I would fly back to SF to make sure it's with Dr Colyvas. He is awesome. read more

Dr. Colyvas is not only handsome and charming (he reminds me of Gabriel Byrne), he's also a wonderful doctor! I was in intense pain when my family doc referred me to Dr. Colyvas. His staff was so kind and was able to squeeze me in on short notice. I called at 11am, and was able to see him at 2pm. He was able to assess my situation quickly (injury to L4S5), prescribed an immediate treatment (Trigger point injection to temporarily reduce the pain) and a subsequent long term treatment (surgery to correct the injury). I was pain free within 2 weeks. And now a month after the surgery, I'm about to get back into training for my half-marathon! Thank you Dr. Colyvas!! read more

I have had Dr. Colyvas for both of my knee surgeries and he has 100% of my confidence, trust and would recommend him to my family and friends. Besides being an excellent surgeon, he really takes the time to explain what the issue is, go over options and took me through the subsequent steps. When I have seen doctors in the past, I always felt they were in a rush to get in and out, but not with Dr. Colyvas. He really took the time to answer a myriad of questions, address my concerns and to create a game plan with realistic expectations. I really appreciated that I have a doctor that really listened and made me feel at ease knowing what post-surgery life would have to offer. The two surgeries I had with him was; two tears of the meniscus on my right leg and a torn meniscus, cyst removal and checking on my ACL on my left leg. After the first surgery on my right leg, I went through PT and in two months time was able to do the Yosemite Falls Trail, which if you are unfamiliar, is a very strenuous 2,700 ft. climb. The second surgery was done on my left leg two weeks ago, and I was able to return to work and walk comfortably a week after the surgery. I am still in recovery mode but see the parallel in recovery speed as the last one. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Colyvas, he has been amazingthing throughout the whole experience. read more

I am grateful to Dr. Colyvas for his gracious contributions to my shoulder diagnosis and surgery. While he was not my primary doctor, Dr. Colyvas was generously helping behind the scenes. He initially provided his expertise in diagnosing my condition and then volunteered to be a co-surgeon during my complicated revision shoulder surgery. He was instrumental in finding a solution, during surgery, to a problem that was caused by my previous doctor. Because of Dr. Colyvas, I had a shorter surgery, a smaller scar, and a fully functional shoulder once again. I only briefly met Dr. Colyvas, but his kindness and care were transparent and of equal balance to the tremendous skill and knowledge he possesses. read more

Doctor Colyvas did my knee last year (meniscus) and just did wife's shoulder today. (rotator cuff tear) He came out to the waiting room and sat down to tell me what went on and that she was fine. Five stars is just not enough by a long shot. Professional, caring, accomodating, GREAT STAFF. Joni is just top notch. His team at the California street campus are super. His choice of assistants also is great (Hi Dr. Dintcho!) He only does knees and shoulders which fit our falling apartedness just fine. SIX stars! * * * * * * read more

I recently slammed my shoulder doing a rail slide on my snowboard. After waiting a couple of days, I realized it wasn't going to be a quick recovery. Dr. Colyvas was able to squeeze me in on short notice, which was great. Dr. Colyvas has a staff of doctors that help him. I worked with Dr. Tito (can't remember his last name) and Dr. Colyvas. Both were super friendly and not rushed at all. They took the time to pull a model of a shoulder and explain exactly what happened and how to strengthen my shoulder. I asked a bunch of questions and they took the time to give me in-depth responses without being rushed. Fortunately, there were no broken bones, so I just have to let it heal for a couple of weeks and avoid falling on it again :-) I highly recommend Dr. Colyvas if you have any unfortunate accidents in the future. read more

I am not a marathon runner. Nor do I bike to work everyday and play soccer on the weekends. Going into a sports medicine facility to have a doctor look at my knee injury is not a pleasant experience. Dr. Colyvas was patient, listened attentively, and examined the injury with care. I have re-injured my knee several times over the course of the last four years. I am tired on the in-mobility, the pain, and the weight gain. His diagnosis was based on a long term full recovery plan. And he was without judgement. read more

I went to see Dr. Colyvas with a non-severe shoulder injury. Although I suspected the injury wouldn't require anything other than time to heal, I didn't want to risk not getting it checked out several years down the road. I was able to get an appointment within a day and the staff I spoke to were friendly and helpful. I chose Dr. Colyvas based on the reviews of my fellow Yelpers and he didn't disappoint. Although my injury was minor I was not made to feel like I was wasting anyone's time. X-rays were taken on the day of the appointment and these suggested that I was indeed lucky enough to avoid a serious injury. It's good to be sure (at least as sure as is possible). Dr. Colyvas wanted to schedule a follow-up with me in three weeks. I explained that due to a slightly complicated insurance situation, while I was insured today, I may not be in three weeks. He said he wouldn't charge me for the follow up if I did turn out to be uninsured. Jolly good form I thought. Of course, the most important thing one would look for in a doctor, is one who excels in his or her medical duties and is professional. But I for one am a sucker for doctors who are good old-fashioned nice to you too. read more

I've been a patient of Dr. Colyvas for nearly 2 years now. He's seen me through one of the most terrible chapters of my life -- an open, comminuted fracture of the tibia and compound fracture of the fibula. Dr. Colyvas is a great doctor! He knows his stuff very well and has most excellent bedside manner. This poor guy had to listen to so much of my whining and stupid questions of all sorts and was always very patient with me and explained things clearly and even drew pictures of things to help explain at times. The staff Dr. Colyvas employs are great people and the facilities are kept clean and in very good shape. I don't think I could've had a better orthopedic surgeon caring for me and I recommend Dr. Nicholas Colyvas without reservation! read more

Dr Colyvas, and his whole team of professionals, where absolutely outstanding! As the result of a shoulder injury sustained while doing my job, Fire Captain, I was experiencing daily pain, taking huge amounts of Motrin, and finally had no choice but to be seen. Dr Colyvas consulted with me at length, gave me all the information I needed to make a solid decision, I opted for surgery. The surgery went extremely well, rehab went just as well, "Team Colyvas" was with me every step of the way. It was 10 months from start to finish, the pain is completely gone, and I've regained full motion and strength of the shoulder. I'm back on the job, serving the citizens of my community, and it's all because Dr Colyvas is a very talented physician! By the way . . . I'm 54 years old, have 1 year left on a 30 year career, and feel as good as I ever have. It was, and is my wish to walk out on my own terms and not be retired out on disability; Dr Colyvas was instrumental in achieving that goal. I would, and do highly recommend this doctor and his team to any and all that are in need. He's efficient, effective and a total pro! Thanks again Dr Colyvas - Your work is greatly appreciated! Keith A. Roberts - An Extremely Satisfied Patient read more

I was hit by a car while biking and broke my left collarbone in 2009. After using Yelp to vet the insurance-recommended doctors, I decided to consult with Dr. Colyvas. I liked him pretty quickly as a person and was happy I chose him for the surgery. He and his staff were easy to talk to and to get appointments with before and after the surgery. Most importantly I loved the results of his work and I would definitely see him again if I had to. read more

In line with what everyone else describes, Dr. Colyvas is straight up amazing! Went in after a road bike accident with a messed up right shoulder (AC separation level 5) and we talked about the options for correction. I brought pictures, printouts, an online youtube surgery video and more questions than you can imagine! It was quite comical, but you have to take control of your own health/wellness. I asked Dr. Colyvas a ton of questions and he took the time to explain, in the meanwhile we had 2 other interns tagging along to learn. I didn't feel he left any question unanswered, nor did he push aside my amateur-research concerns. His British accent, along with his awesome concise explanations helps you feel you're in great hands! So, he did the surgery (Summer 2013), and I had to wear a sling for 12 weeks (yes 12 weeks, including sleeping with it on). All the follows up were great, and my outcome was incredible and the 'scar' was so minimal it's ridiculous. After Sling removal came physical therapy (this is SO important) and after a few weeks I found a body worker / Rolfing guy who helped more than the PT to be honest. Long term, A few months after the accident, I was close to normal! Today I can lift heavy weights, and I just keep an extra caution to protect the shoulder. Thanks to Dr. Colyvas, his practice of the art, and his true presence in the now when treating me! read more

I was referred to Dr. Colyvas through a physical therapist and boy what an awesome referral. I am overly impressed with his office (Post Street) and his employees (Joni :) ). Everyone is professional, kind and on their game. I went in with impinged rotator cuff and adhesive cap. and was in a huge amount of pain. He sent me for an MRI before coming in, which I appreciated!!! It saves time for both parties and it was a decision that if I wanted to see him first he would accommodate me. When going through treatment options he told me that he wanted to be proactive and stay away from surgery. I was so relieved. He was always on time to the appointment, he was fast and to the point. My treatment did include Cortisone shot, and he heard me out about not wanting the shot. He did not push the shot, and I waited to see if my shoulder would calm down with physical therapy. Finally I broke down and asked for the shot and Dr. Colyvas gave me the perfect shot. Painless and quick. My overall review for Dr. Colyvas and his office is fantastic! I had a great experience and I will always recommend him.. plus I think I will miss them a little :) Thank you Dr. Colyvas, Joni and the office team! read more

I have known nick for 5 years now, both as a colleague and as a patient. I am an orthopedic surgeon my self and I had 3 operation on my shoulder with nick. Why u ask, since I trust him 100%, I have been in several case with him and I have seen how skillful he is, he had amazing hands when it come to shoulder surgery specially . I refer him all my complex cases. U can't go wrong with him, Dr Farr read more

Dr. Colyvas dramatically improved my quality of life. I had a meniscus tear that was interrupting my daily activities. Weirdly, the MRI was unclear whether anything was wrong. However, Dr. Colyvas, with his years of experience and knowledge of my symptoms, was convinced that it was torn. He did not pressure me into pursuing surgery. I decided that surgery was the best option, and I am so happy I went through with the procedure. My recovery was speedy, partially because it was minor surgery, but also due to Dr. Colyvas' skill in the OR. If you have any knee issues that may require surgery, you will not go wrong with choosing Dr. Colyvas. read more

Consulted with Dr Colyvas upon reading numerous positive reviews at his Redwood City location (he practices in San Francisco and Campbell, his primarily clinic, as well). Thus, the Redwood City location is a shared office space with several other doctors and fairly spartan examination rooms. Surgeries are performed in SF and Campbell. He by and large treats shoulders and knees, performing arthroscopy and does not perform total replacements. I was able to schedule the appointment within 3 weeks time. Before seeing Dr Colyvas, my condition and history (treatments, diagnostic imaging, etc) were first reviewed and transcribed by his assistant. I relayed this information to Dr Colyvas after he entered. This was followed by a clinical exam, which was by and large procedural and not comprehensive . He then reviewed the MRI imaging I had brought along before making his diagnosis and recommendations for treatment. His assistant was present throughout, by and large transcribing my interaction with Dr Colyvas. All in all, a very procedural, straight forward visit that was not overly rushed. I found Dr Colyvas honest as he noted how infrequently he saw and treated patients with my condition. read more

I was referred to Dr. Colyvas to receive a second opinion on a recommendation for surgery to repair a tear in my meniscus. My primary sports medicine doctor in Palo Alto recommended surgery outright. After a very professional consultation and visit, Dr Colyvas recommended a course of PT to see how it would affect the pain and loss of flexibility. The PT identified a lack of strength in my gluteous muscles, and after a 6 week course of progressive strength exercises and a regimen I can manage on my own, I have had a great outcome and am not likely to need further treatment- including surgery- for the foreseeable future. Dr. Colyvas is a great doctor- and saved me thousands of dollars and the inconvenience of surgery. Get professional, courteous, and pragmatic service from this terrific medical practice. read more

perfectly organized office with staff that has been there quite a long time (aka loyal employees :-) Colyvas is outstanding - a true gentleman. I had a horrible experience with another ortho doc in SFO and was very frustrated. Colyvas was referred to me by my workers comp insurance. He knows his stuff, allows you to ask questions, and takes time to listen. Colyvas did not do any surgery on me, but what I have heard he is an excellent surgeon. read more

I am a patient of Dr. Colyvas's at UCSF. I have issues with both knees for years now, and he has been exceedingly helpful in thinking about how best to approach and treat both knees. He is knowledgable, kind, and generous. He has gone above and beyond in terms of calling me, taking time in the office visit to discuss options (not rushing), and has been extremely flexible when I have had a difficult time weighing the options. Unlike alot of doctors, he treats the whole person and not just the joint, and talks to you like you are a real person instead of a nameless patient. I cannot recommend him highly enough, and am grateful to him for the help he has given me! Update March 2013: Had the knee surgery with Dr. Colyvas I had been thinking about having. He was wonderful through the whole process, and checked in immediately after the surgery and by phone the next day. It is 10 days post surgery, and everything has been going extremely well. I had my other knee operated on (same surgery) by a different doctor over a year ago, and the results with Dr. Colyvas are so much better. This time I have minimal swelling and pain, and am able to do things like bend my knee and activate my quad muscle a couple of days after surgery. With my first surgery with the other doctor, my knee was so inflammed it took many weeks and alot of physical therapy to be able to do these sames things I can do just a couple of days after surgery with Dr. Colyvas (bend my knee and activate my quad). I am so grateful to Dr. Colyvas for his help, and cannot thank him enough! read more

I initially went to see Dr. Colyvas for a dominant shoulder pain that had persisted for 2+ months. It wasn't affecting my job at all, but it was preventing me from being 100% in my yoga practice - specifically the pose he has under his images (did I mention I also teach yoga). As a physical therapist with 10 years of experience under my belt, I initially tried to rehab it myself with the usually shoulder exercises, as well as ice, NSAIDs, etc. However, when it didn't improve, I knew it was time for a second opinion. He was in agreement with what I suspected but advised a contrast MRI, which is what I was hoping he'd do, rather than tell me to do rehab, rest, etc. The MRI results weren't 100% black and white, so he wanted to try an injection in hopes of pain relief but also as a diagnostic tool. The injection worked wonders. Immediately after the injection, he said it'd be sore (it was) for a few days and to rest about 48 hrs, then slowly begin trying to do the things that previously I couldn't due to the pain. Those were the exact words I wanted to hear!! A month later, I'm back to practicing yoga without any modifications! What I really found refreshing about Dr. Colyvas was that he didn't discredit my opinions about what I thought was going on. Instead, he respected my years of experience and knowledge in my field. Furthermore, he didn't tell me to stop doing what I loved. From the first consultation, his plan of care entirely focused to getting me back to my full on yoga practice. Thank you very much for all your help! Namaste! read more

Big fan of Dr. Colyvas. I fractured my hand playing baseball, and he and his team were incredible. They were very accommodating in terms of scheduling appointments and resulting surgery as quickly as possible, and three months later, the results have been great. My hand has improved quickly and I'm almost back to full-strength. Surgical skills aside, the thing that impressed me just as much was his kindness and ability to connect with me. Many doctors focus on the physical problem at hand, but he took the time to get to know me, answer all my questions and those of my partner, and ulitmately assure me that all would go well and I'd be fine in no time. Just a great guy who took excellent care of me. A crappy injury was made less crappy by a fantastic, and a staff who were always responsive, friendly, accommodating, and just cool. read more

I promise you that you cannot have any better surgeon in your life infact I never had any better medicine personnel EVER !! He is super sweet, extremely calm, never rushes you. I got my ACL reconstructed and am doing so well ! no pain after 2 days and I feel like it could have not have any better experience. He called me from his cellphone the day before my surgery to discuss my option as I was confused between my graft option ( WHAT Surgeon calls from his cell ??? ) Hint he is always reachable !!!. I would go to Dr. Nicholas for my entire life for any of my need in that matter and send anyone and everyone I know to him... THIS IS how a doctor should make you feel and practice medicine !!! read more

If you live outside of the Bay Area like I do, the drive to UCSF to see Dr Colyvas is extremely worthwhile. I play tennis and have struggled with shoulder pain for the past two years. After consultations with two Orthopedic Dr's in the Central Valley, one who wanted to do shoulder replacement surgery, I decided to seek a third opinion. I saw the glowing reviews on Yelp for Dr Colyvas, and made an appointment with him. I was so impressed with Dr Colyvas; his medical diagnosis, his medical background, the staff at UCSF, and his patience convinced me he was the top surgeon for me. Dr Colyvas confirmed I did not need shoulder replacement surgery, but that arthoscopic surgery would get me back on the tennis court, with a few adjustments to my game. Surgery was performed April 2016, followed by six months of P.T. I am happy to report that I am playing tennis again, and so very appreciative of Dr Colyvas and his amazing staff. We are so fortunate to have great medical facilities in Northern California like UCSF and doctors such as Dr Colyvas. read more

Dr Colyvas was great. I was very reluctant to get a cortozone shot in my knee due to the last cortozone shot attempt by another doctor who made me see stars after trying 2 times and never actually injecting the cortozone. Dr Colyvas was beyond excellent and made me feel very comfortable. His assistant was very nice and so was his front office girl. I was not going to get the injection and just live with the pain. I made the appt. with Fresca and she told me Dr Colyvas was excellent and reassured me it would be ok. She was right I didn't even feel the shot. I was so shocked. I wish I had found him sooner. Thanks so much my knee already feels much better. :) read more

I've run out of superlatives to describe Dr. Colyvas and his team! As a personal trainer, group fitness instructor, and over-50 workout fiend, I was bummed when my left knee pain was diagnosed as a medial meniscus tear. Dr. Kristin Wingfield, my amazing sports medicine specialist of several years (and now an office mate of Dr. Colyvas), referred me to him for a consultation. He was extremely easy to talk to, explained things in plain English (as opposed to gratuitous medical jargon), and kindly listened as I vented about the emotional toll of my injury - i.e. feeling disheartened about not being able to do some things that I was asking my training clients and class students to do. Dr. Colyvas laid out my surgical options and their corresponding recovery periods, effectively preparing me for the worst but hoping for the best. As it turned out, all it took was a small snip of a loose flap of cartilage - the best possible scenario! I was back on my feet in practically no time, with the caveat from Dr. Colyvas that it would be unwise for me to go from zero to 60 right out of the gate, no matter how good I felt. (Yeah, I've made that mistake before.) The whole process - from consultation to insurance to coordinating with the surgery center - was seamless. (Big ups to Joni in the office!) The doc even recommended that I donate a knee brace that I ended up not needing so that it could help someone who might not otherwise be able to afford it. How cool is that? I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Colyvas - he's the real deal. read more

Dr. Colyvas is an amazing surgeon. He and his office came highly recommended. His staff (especially Joni) is super attentive, courteous and professional; every office visit was timely and effective. I sustained a torn labrum in my shoulder and it was clear after my first consultation, that Dr. Colyvas was the best for the job. I had been living in pain for 7 months and decided to cash in on the recommendation I received. We discussed all non-surgical options first, but after my MRI it was clear that surgery was the best course of action. The surgery itself was quick and non-invasive. During the procedure, Dr. Colyvas repaired the torn labrum, performed a tendon decompression and removed a bone chip in roughly 1hr. It seemed like a walk in the park for him. My surgery was 3.5 months ago and I'm already back in the gym and playing soccer (sparingly) without any pain. His PT recommendation (ChiroMedical) was a great one and was seamless for insurance and billing purposes. The doc's recovery predictions were also spot on - rare these days. I'm healing faster than I ever thought I could. It was a great experience and I've already recommended a few friends. Hands down the best surgeon I've ever dealt with. Thanks for everything doc! read more

Dr Colyvas is an excellent surgeon. I had a torn ACL and meniscus tear. It has been eight months and I am back to 100%. His team is professional and caring. read more

I accompanied my wife to visit Dr. Colyvas: she is struggling with a shoulder injury and is extremely frustrated by it. Dr. Colyvas is an extremely polished individual with terrific bedside manner: he examined her shoulder after having analyzed the MRI results beforehand, and explained two possible, alternative approaches to finalizing the diagnosis and beginning treatment. His explanations are clear, and his attitude is reassuring. read more

Dr. COLYVAS took care of my torn rotator cuffs and my carpal tunnel problems both 12 and 5 years ago. He's so very kind, understanding and only wants what is best for his patient. I had to make the difficult decision to retire due to severe repetitive stress injuries. I'll never forget the day he sat with me, patiently, while I digested his medical wisdom. I knew he cared which made my decision easier to move forward with. He's the best and so is Joni!!!! read more

Dr. Colyvas performed a full ACL replacement (hamstring graft) and sutured my torn lateral meniscus. Was never in any pain in the days following surgery and was back golfing within 3 months and running within 6. Very knowledgable surgeon, I highly highly recommend him! read more

Dr. Colyvas is one of the finest physicians that I have ever met. I suffered a shoulder injury from a bike accident and one thing that I really appreciated is that Dr. Colyvas tried every possible form of treatment - physical therapy, etc., before recommending surgery. There are many surgeons who immediately will recommend surgery. Not Dr. Colyvas. When it finally became apparent that I needed surgery, he performed it expertly and the best thing that I can say about the outcome, is that my shoulder is now perfect - I don't even think about it. He, Joni and the rest of their staff couldn't be more caring and their skills are superb. He's an easy recommendation. read more

Dr. Colyvas is a great doctor. I had a meniscus repair surgery back in May. He was nice enough to call me before and after the surgery due to some concerns I had going in. When I had my initial consult with him, he met with me for close to an hour to answer all of my questions. I would definitely recommend him. read more

Dr. Colyvas did my shoulder in late August of last year. I wanted to wait to write a review after I healed. I have to say that I couldn't be happier. It has healed wonderfully. I have no pain during my sleep or any sports activity. He and the staff at his office were great. I recommend his office to anyone who wants to get better. read more

I'm just concluding a year-long recovery from a bad shoulder injury (dislocation, broken bones, torn labrum, surgery, etc.), and wanted to leave the highest endorsement possible for Dr. Colyvas. Once I explained the injury to his assistant (over the holiday), they immediately fit me into his schedule. He and his staff were friendly, communicative, and accommodating throughout the whole process. He spoke with my prior shoulder doc to compare notes (different city, different injury), made sure I had the additional appointments I needed expedited (xrays, MRIs), etc. After taking a conservative approach first (waited for the bone to heal, PT), he eventually recommended surgery, and spent a few months after monitoring me. Very detail oriented, very good at explaining the process, and a great guy. I've recommended him to others and will continue to do so wholeheartedly. Thanks again Dr. Colyvas and UCSF. read more

I suffered a meniscus tear 6 months ago. After researching, I understood the importance of the meniscus and wanted to do everything possible to preserve it because I plan to stay active for many years to come. I saw 4 other top rated surgeons in the San Francisco area before seeing Dr. Colyvas. They were all pretty good, but I still wasn't sure (I know a bit excessive, but I was very picky because this was my first surgery and I really did not want to loose any of my meniscus), so I decided to meet with one more surgeon I had an eye on, and that happened to be Dr Colyvas. As soon as I met him I knew he was the one I wanted to do my knee surgery, without a doubt. He was very kind and explained everything to me in detail with drawings and all, answering any questions I had. He was patient and spent as much time as I needed. Without me even saying anything he explained how he would prefer to repair my meniscus and explained all the different scenarios that are repairable and which were not. He also knows of all the latest techniques and devices so that was a huge plus, because medical advances are happening all the time and its important your surgeon keeps up with the latest research. Overall, he gives off such a positive vibe, I knew I could trust him to do whats best for me. I went ahead and had surgery on 1/8/2018 and everything went great. I was pretty panicked before surgery, but Dr Colyvas came and spoke with me putting me at complete ease. My surgery was a complete success and was the best case scenario, as I had a very minor tear that was not repairable, but it was so small that it shouldn't effect me at all (5% or less removed and cleaned up). Dr Colyvas spoke with my mom after the surgery (I was fast asleep) telling her the good news and she told me he seemed genuinely happy with the outcome like it was his own knee. You could really tell he cares, and that is the most important thing. I will update how my knee turns out, but I am confident I will make a full recovery. read more

Excellent care and very professional, I was very pleased that he was able to resolve my tendonitis without surgery -- terrific office staff, too -- I highly recommend him read more

Dr. Colyvas is the greatest. He's repaired my shoulders with four surgeries over the last two years. Both were independent Worker's Comp injuries. Some say you don't get the same kind of care with Worker's Comp as if it were a private ins. injury/repair. That's just not the case here. And, I've got lots of experience with the surgery center... which was always fantastic, no delays, everything explained. I never worried for a moment and felt great each time after surgery... great enough to go get a burger and fries. After care was very individual and he always took time to explain what was going on. He truly invested in my well being and bringing me back to as perfect as I could be. I've kidded him saying "I have bionic shoulders" And, Joanie, his right arm coordinator is the friendliest, sweetest, most prompt and understanding medical staff person I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. Now, that I'm done with my post op schedules, I will really miss these great, professional, expert healers! read more
