Dr. Weinstein's Reviews

Lance W.
Was something I did not want, but needed. Was done with expertise and precision and 100% success! Thank you Dr. Weinstein!
Mike M.
This my third surgery with OCC, second with Dr. Wienstein. I wouldn't let any other orthopedic organization do the surgeries. Believe me, I've had a few negative issues with others in the COS area. I'm very, very glad I didn't let them do my surgeries. Trust and respect goes a long way with me.

DR Weinstein must know the future, I say this because about 10 yrs or more he did some right shoulder work ,at Synergy therapy they used "cupping" and pulled the muscle from the anchor point and I ended up with " Popeye arm".

I recently completed my one-year follow-up after undergoing reverse shoulder surgery performed by Dr. Weinstein , and I am beyond grateful for the care I received throughout this journey. Dr. Weinstein did an outstanding job on the surgery, allowing me to return to activities like pickleball, golf, weightlifting, and more within six months post-operation. While I may not have 100% of my original strength and motion, I’m thrilled to be able to comfortably enjoy most of my previous activities again.

Dr. Weinstein and his assistant, Shannon, were both thorough, professional, and highly knowledgeable during every follow-up visit. Shannon conducted detailed evaluations and X-rays, and Dr. Weinstein provided thoughtful assessments that left me confident in my recovery progress. The entire office staff was friendly, courteous, and efficient, making each visit a pleasant experience. I truly appreciate the exceptional care and expertise of Dr. Weinstein and his team. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of orthopedic care!
