“Awesome doctors & hospital”

Only issue --- the office visit waits... although maybe they are working on this as my wait at my one-year check up was only an hour and ten minutes.... much better than my 2 week, 3 month, & 6 month check ups - all over 2 hours.

“good”

good

“Will come here first the next time I hurt myself!”

Dr Guttman knows his stuff. Thank you for the excellent care!

“excellent”

“Really good experience.”

This whole process has been very efficient and methodical. The surgery experience (day of surgery) was really good. The early days of recovery were scary, but everything has worked out well. That is a testament to how good the surgical procedure was done. Thanks very much.

“Successful surgery; lingering long-term effects being managed”

Very satisfactory

“The conserrvative approach worked perfectly*”

Very pleased!

Dr, Guttmann was informative from the first exam, to the final post surgical exam. He answered any questions that I had, and gave me insight with regard to what to do to hasten my recovery and become strong again. I highly recommend him as a surgeon.

“this was my 2nd surgical experience and was very good”

this was my 2nd surgical experience and was very good

“The surgery has allowed me to move more freely than pre surgery and currently y with less pain.”

Excellent. My only concern has been wait time in the lobby with lack of seating in a comfortable place to protect my shoulder. This was related to my post surgery visit, not today's visit.
I appreciate the entire staff, Holy Cross Hospital. I've felt to be in excellent care from my provider. Thanks for all that has occurred by everyone involved.

“Awesome experience with the shoulder surgery”

I had shoulder surgery with Dr Guttmann. Surgery went well but I developed a rash after a couple of days that did not resolve with allergy medication. Dr. Guttmann was very prompt in dealing with it and took the effort to talk to a dermatologist and not only got me the medications but also set up a same day visit if needed.

“exceptional”

care before and after surgery. explained everything in detail. great experience

“excellent”

great

“Awesome!!!!”

Dr. Guttman is a very good doctor. He listened to my chief complaint, ordered an MRI and came to the conclusion of a torn bicep and rotator cuff. Dr. Guttman explained everthing that needed to be done, scheduled the surgery and did the surgery. He explained everthing over again on the day of the procedure. After care was excellent.

“Outstanding knowledge and experience.”

Felt very confident based on Dr. Guttman's reputation. My experience was a good one and grateful to have my shoulder back!

“100% positive”

Dan is a fantastic surgeon. He understood my desire to swim again and went the extra mile to repair BOTH of my shoulders so that I am swimming again!!! Dan was very honest about the commitment and time needed on my part to achive my goals thru Physical therapy. Dr. Guttmann and APEX PT are a winning team.

“Awesome, feels like I'm in great hands!”

I wasn't sure how to approach my injury but once I got here everyone has helped me get back my health, from the staff with Dr. Guttman to the surgery and all the physical therapy. Feels very time tested and methodical, I'm so grateful!

“Overall very happy with my shoulder surgery”

Very happy with surgery and Dr. Guttmann's office. Particularly happy with Dr. Guttmann's understanding of my goals and expectations post surgery as a relatively young adventure athlete.

“Had rotator cuff repair in 2016 with perfect result”

I am a physician and interact with many providers over my career.Dr G is a great listener and explainer. He is not your typical orthopedist. He is present during our conversations and knows how to put you at ease with his air of pleasant confidence.
His staff is extremely professional, courteous and helpful.
I also like the presence of his fellows the fact that they are here for additional training makes me feel that I am receiving care from a quality organization.
i cannot recommend him more highly..

“Spectacular job of total reverse shoulder replacement/recovery,”

“Excellent care and information”

As far as i'm concerned, Dr Guttmann gave me my life back. He saw me originally when I was in horrible pain even though he is not an ankle surgeon. He helped me make the right decisions as to where to have my surgery and paved the way with Dr. Campbell in Arizona. All is well

“Excellent.”

Very helpful and professional.

“Trustworthy, clear, and thorough”

Overall, very good experience from diagnosis to surgery to recovery. Quick, thorough, knew the best way to heal the shoulder, and despite the pain, the healing was quick and effective. Only downside to the process was at the 3 month check up, I sat and waited in a room at his office for almost 2 and a half hours. Otherwise, great process. Would recommend.

“I trusted his diagnosis. He always made me feel unhurried and that he listened to me.”

It's a pain in the neck to do the xrays at another location. It worth it because the surgical outcome has been so good.

“I greatly appreciate the skill and knowledge of Dr. Guttmann as a surjion.”

My expereice wit h Dr Guttmann and his staff was positive.

“my shoulder feels a lot stronger than before, feels as if i will never have to worry about dislocation again.”

my experience was great, any questions i had post surgery had no problems being answered, and i was shown all the work that was done in my surgery, definitely satisfied with my care.

“Dr G is an outstanding surgeon!”

If you have issues with your shoulder don't see anyone else but Dr Guttmann. He is an excellent surgeon that will apply his skills to your issue and have you back to normal activities in no time at all.

My shoulder function is greatly improved and continues to get better over time. I'm able to return to most of the tasks that I had lost the ability to perform prior to surgery.

I had a wonderful experience. I went to see Dr Guttmann after an MRI showed rotator cuff tear and shoulder pain. It was during the appointment Dr Guttmann diagnosed me with frozen shoulder. Once my shoulder started to thaw I was also given an option for treating the tear with stem cell or PRP and I opted for PRP. I feel great after getting the shot. Dr Guttmann answers all the questions and clarified our doubts

“Knowledgeable staff and supportive care and diagnosis.”

Overall this was a positive interaction. From the first appointment that included pain relief to my follow-up, confirmed my recovery was complete.

“Easy procedure for me”

have enjoyed working with Dr. Guttmann

“capable and experienced hands; clear explanations of procedure”

My only complaint was around my first two follow-up appointments in Santa Fe: the office space was uncomfortably overcrowded and patients were kept waited for way too long. I waited for close to an hour.

“Perceptively diagnosed, expertly repaired, supportively followed!”

My experience with Dr. Guttmann represents the best possible ideal of surgical care, linking thorough and perceptive diagnosis, state-of-the-art highly skilled minimally invasive surgery, and expert guidance of post-operative physical therapy optimized for all aspects of the procedure, including special allowances both for the extensive nature of the repair and the recovery challenges for a patient of my age.

“Fantastic experience on this journey to rebuilding my shoulder”

The information, description of procedure, and recovery recommendations helped me through the entire healing process.

“Exceptional”

I requested zero pain killers and narcotics. The moment I left the OR, I had ZERO pain. I have not had one ounce of pain the entire time. My shoulder was as bad as they get. I had a full anatomical replacement with reattaching my labrum, long biceps, scapular tendon and repaired 3 of 4 rotator cuffs. A major surgery. The only treatment I used was the polar ice machine. The thing i loved most about the Polar ice machine was that it packed and held my shoulder in place, while icing it. it definitely helped with healing and immobilizing my shoulder.

I waited 14 years to do this because of the nightmare stories of shoulder surgery.

If you have a shoulder in need of repair, DO NOT wait, get it repaired for your quality of life.

But, DO NOT have it repaired by anyone but Dr. Dan Guttmann.

Sincerely,

Anthony Pegg

“Touch of the masters hand.,”

I need the maximum range of motion for my jobs and I'm working hard to achieve it, I have a great PT. It takes 100% of your own effort after he makes the repairs, but once you have the repair by a great surgeon, you can get on the road to healing!
