Patient Reviews
Dec 06, 2024
My shoulder was severely injured by an impaired driver. The trauma surgeons at the local and prestigious university hospital were afraid of it and would not do a scapula fixation. I was very depressed about the way that my body looked (you could see with your eye that my shoulder was not where it was supposed to be) and worked. My arm was so impinged on my torso that wearing a shirt was rubbing my skin raw. Dr. Kempton was recommended to me by a trauma surgeon at Vanderbilt and he performed the six and a half hour surgery. It has been about 7 months since the surgery and while I will never be the same I am very happy with the results and the decision I made to go with Dr. Kempton. I cannot imagine how miserable I would be right now if I had followed the treatment plan of the other hospital in Winston Salem which involved leaving it where it was and putting in an artificial joint. Dr. Kempton gave me hope and I am grateful.
