Patient Reviews
Dec 09, 2024
Dr. Karbach performed a second shoulder replacement on me in August. This time a reverse shoulder replacement on my right shoulder. Once again I am recovering well and the surgery was a success. Dr. Karbach listens well and is empathic regarding my physical health. I highly recommend Dr. Karbach for your orthopedic needs.
