Patient Reviews
Oct 17, 2024
I began seeing Dr. Lipson for a pretty torn up shoulder. The inevitable solution was going to be a total shoulder replacement. He had monitored my shoulder since 2017, saying the longer I wait, the better the technology gets. I finally could not wait any longer. I am about 9 weeks post surgery and am amazed at how good it feels already. His conservative approach allowed time to pass, ensuring I was fully ready for surgery. I imagine every day will keep getting better. I am looking forward to a future with much less, if any, pain.
