I had an excellent experience with Dr. Weinstein and team - from start to finish. From the initial consultation, they took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all my questions, and made sure I felt comfortable and informed about my reverse shoulder procedure. On the day of surgery, the entire process was smooth and well organized. Dr. Weinstein and his team were professional, attentive, and reassuring, which helped ease any anxiety I had. Most importantly, the results of the procedure exceeded my expectations. My recovery, with the help of the well trained physical therapists, went smoothly, and I’m very very pleased with the outcome. I truly appreciate Dr. Weinstein''s skill and genuine care for his patients. I would highly recommend him to anyone that needs any kind of shoulder surgery.

CCOE has treated both my partner and myself for shoulder concerns and we could not be happier with their care. Dr. Weinstein and Shannon Constantinides take the time needed to understand your concerns, examine you completely, and explain treatment options. The office staff is also a well-oiled machine.

Our re-examination with Dr. Weinstein regarding our shoulders (injured in a roadside auto accident) was straight forward, direct and honest. Dr Weinstein assessed the effectiveness of the physical therapy and the cortisone injections (non-operative treatments), that he recommended prior to shoulder surgery. To that end, the overall assessment was we would need surgery and left the decision entirely up to us! Dr. Continued to explain both surgeries in detail as well as post care.. We would recommend Dr Weinstein to anyone for his orthopedic care. We are very thankful!
