Patient Reviews
Apr 05, 2023
Dr. Desio repaired my right shoulder rotator cuff last year and I had my left side done in February 2023. Both surgery’s went flawlessly, the procedure was well explained and everything went as expected, including a little more work while in there. We had a billing snafu with the hospital, Dr. Desio’s staff picked up on it and helped to resolve the issue. Dr. Desio is a cup half full person, very upbeat and caring to the patient as well as his staff, while I waited in preop at 6am, I heard Dr. Desio come in and greet everyone, again in a very upbeat, motivating person. Dr. D is just a great person who really knows his stuff! My right shoulder is perfect and the left will be there soon. Dr. D is well respected by the PT staff I have been working with, Thanks to Dr D and Staff for a great job all around.
