Great doctor
I met Dr Shapiro when a family member needed his services. I liked that he address the issue and plan of care. He listened to our concerns and together we came up with how to move forward. This was huge for me. So when i needed a doctor I called Dr Shapiro and he did my right rotator cuff repair. He told me about a cold therapy macine (needed it). Everything went smoothly, and I followed his instructions to the letter. I was supposed to have my left shoulder done within a year, but then life happened and now years later, here I am. He is a surgeon...if you want pain maintenance, he will help...but his expertise in my opinion is...surgery. And he's great at it! My left shoulder is currently scheduled for early 2025. I highly recommend Dr Paul Shapiro specifically!
