Dr Weinstein has taken ownership of his work. One year and five months out from a total shoulder replacement. An x ray will show long term adhesion of the prosthetic device to the bone. Looks perfect. He does this to catch any possible problems before they are problems. This is more than you will get with most orthopedic procedures. I work in the field so I can attest to this. So glad I had him replace my shoulder! I feel great.

It's been two years since I had my shoulder replacement surgery, with the help of the physical therapy of 0CC and many more hours of my home therapy lm happy to say it was a great discussion to have my surgery. I don't have any of the pain I was living with before the surgery, Dr Weinstein also did my rotator cuff surgery over ten years ago and it is still doing great, but bottom line is you have to do the physical therapy religiously to get the best results, iv been going to the gym 3-day s a week for the last year and my shoulder is stronger and better than I could have imagined PS do the Therapy ! ! ! You won't regret it
