As a 73-year-old physician, I knew I had a torn labrum before seeing an orthopedist. The question was, would surgery be of value at my age and who would do it. After checking with many of my fellow physicians, the name of Mark Wagner, M.D. kept reappearing. He was the person for this type of surgery. It worked. I am back in the gym, riding bicycles and occasionally running. Superb surgery, excellent anesthesia (no narcotics following surgery) and physical therapy with return to the gym.

I am very happy with the surgery and the results. His reputation is well-deserved. read more
