    Suddenly, I couldn’t raise my right arm past my waistline and experienced severe pain in my shoulder. I diagnosed myself with a frozen shoulder or blamed it on sleeping on my right side… Boy, was I wrong…

    I went for cortisone injections, but, no relief in sight and quite painful Finally, went for an MRI and was informed I had a torn rotator cuff Shock, to say the least…no idea how this happened

    I was referred to Dr. Kaplan and instantly felt a comforting connection. He informed me of all the options and we discussed surgery given the significant tear he saw on the MRI in combination with my pain and disability.
    He was very informative and compassionate thru this journey.He explained everything to me in great detail…and I also asked questions. I was not rushed and felt at ease with his professional expertise
    I had heard the horror stories about this surgery…..NOT TRUE! I had the surgery and recovered exceptionally wel…I followed his post op instructions and healed very well I am able to lift my arm and with physical therapy, I feel like I am 100% back to full mobility and pain free.

    Dr. Kaplan surpassed my expectations as an orthopedic surgeon. He is extremely gentle and still maintains his excellent bedside manner , sorry!

    In my opinion, Dr. Kaplan is the most amazing, professional doctor I have ever had contact with. I have a history of medical issues and he is like no one else. I only wish he could address my other health conditions, as I trust him completely.

    With sincere gratitude on a successful surgery and full use of my right arm, again I will always appreciate your excellent care To the best doctor I have ever met, thank you for everything Was such a scary adventure, Dr. Kaplan made it all right!
