Dr. Rabinowitz was informative about my surgery and the outcome. Plus he explained in laymen's terms what to do and what to expect in the coming weeks.

I've been complaining about the same pain since the surgery. It seems like Dr Rabinowitz is going to try to find out what is going on. He has poo-pooed it away until this visit.

We didn't discuss risks of surgery but it was not immediately considered as an option at this time.

Dr. Rabinowitz was great. He listened to my description of the pain and asked good questions. He was able to explain what he saw on the x-rays and connect the images to the physical exam so that I understood the issue. We then discussed diagnosis and the best options for treatment. I appreciate the time he took to be thorough yet efficient during the appointment.

Both Dr Rabinowitz and APRN Massery were very professional, efficient, kind, and patient with me as they each examined my injured right shoulder for range of motion and took my medical history, with him reviewing the multiple X-rays in detail and expressing his observation and opinion for my next steps and best care path forward.
