“The supposition that my persiste...”

The supposition that my persistent pain & limited ROM must have been caused by my having either fallen or done something I'll advised was unfortunate. My partner joins me to ensure the accuracy of what I say & am told. Falls & poor behavior were not operative. What is more likely is my body's habit of shutting down post-op In an atypical manner that was characterized 13 months ago when my hip was replaced & I couldn't move my left leg upward/away from my core. My shoulder is responding very well to 3 days of Prednisone that Dr. Werner wisely prescribed & now, suddenly my hand's grip is also vastly improving. My nerve seems to have been impinged & the steroid is very helpful at helping shoulder ROM and hand function.

“Dr. Werner immediately apologize...”

Dr. Werner immediately apologized for running a little late. He took time to explain thoroughly and show me what occurred during the surgical procedure. He listened and answered all of my questions and let me know he was available with any concerns or needs I may have going forward. He's very personable. I felt that my care and well being was important to him. He is absolutely the best Doctor I've had the pleasure of having care and attend to my shoulder issues.
