Patient Testimonials

Dr. Kelly is an incredible expert in shoulder surgery in my opinion. His team is so knowledgeable and understanding.

I had a bad result from a previous surgery with another orthopedic practice. My shoulder was painful most of the time. I had a re-tear and nerve issues along with frozen shoulder. I was expecting about a 50% improvement after Dr. Dieterle did the surgery and Lisa Richardson the therapy. My arm is about 95%+ better! I am very happy and relieved and I even surprised the doctor. He said he was amazed and surprised I got back the rotation and movement with very little pain. Both did a fantastic job cleaning up the mess I was left with after previous surgery. I tell everyone how great they are!

Everyone is amazed at how well the reverse total shoulder replacement surgery went. Dr. Dieterle has done an amazing job and I would strongly encourage anyone that needs the surgery to do so.

I had a reverse total shoulder replacement performed by Dr. Dieterle. Now, my right arm feels better and I can use the right arm more often for daily activities.

My rotator cuff repair with Dr. Dieterle has given me a much more positive outlook on life.

I am able to sleep at night on my left side without pain. I continue my PT exercises daily by myself, and feel they have helped tremendously in my complete recovery. Though I am right-handed, I can do more with my left arm than I can with my right arm. I am looking forward to having surgery on my right shoulder this coming spring/summer.

Excellent work by Dr. Meyer and his team. I am very satisfied with my recovery plan and look forward to strengthening my shoulder. All of my goals have been met and an excellent result from procedure.

Want to thank Dr. Szalapski for his great care of my rotator cuff issue in my shoulder. He’s a magician with a cortisone shot, bringing me great relief the few times I’ve been to see him.  Highly recommend this caring and professional Dr.

I met Dr. Szalapski and had my first hip replaced at 42 years old – scared to death! It went perfectly and no limp. I had my knee replaced at around 50 years old and my other hip done a year later. Last year, I had my shoulder replaced and was told I may only get 70% of my range of motion back – I got 100%. I would never think of anybody but Dr. Szalapski to perform my surgeries when I have had the best care and absolutely no complications!! His support team and Jessica are the best also! Bonus he has a good sense of humor.

My primary care provider suggested Dr. Kelly as she had worked with him for years, and said he was the best with shoulder repair. I met him and some of his team in 2017. I decided to follow the physical therapy route, and waited for another year. An entire year after our first meeting, my torn rotator cuff started to interrupt my sleep and I was having more bad days then good. I went back and met with him. He asked me, “are you ready to do this surgery?” I asked him, “are you?” He then told me he was ready last year. I still laugh about that. I had my surgery on 12/27/18. The pain management plan was very clearly laid out for my husband and myself to follow when we got home. I am so grateful for that thought out plan, a sheet of paper with a graph to follow. I think it made a challenging situation much more manageable. The recovery went better than I thought, and I was back to light duty work in three weeks. I respect Dr. Kelly and his team of compassionate care givers. Thanks for a new chance at life.
