Patient-stories

After tearing my rotator cuff, not only was I experiencing pain but my quality of life was diminished. Playing golf and working out were painful rather than enjoyable. Graci and I sought out Fellowship trained Dr. Christopher Sforzo and the team at Sforzo | Dillingham | Stewart Orthopedics + Sports Medicine. I was treated non-surgically and am now pain free, mobile and enjoying everything I did before.

I was visiting the area looking at property and considering a full time re-location from Minnesota when I was in a traffic accident. The result was a very painful shoulder injury that would ultimately require bilateral RTC repairs. I was unable to undertake regular day-to-day activities or participate in my favorite sport – tennis. It was essential that I choose a shoulder specialist that could quickly set me on the right path of treatment. I was relieved to find Sforzo | Dillingham | Stewart Orthopedics + Sports Medicine, who are experts in ‘Upper Extremities.’ I consulted with them immediately and the outcome of their advice and treatment has been extremely successful. I am once again active and on the court!

Over the years we had seen several orthopedists in town but were never impressed. They seemed to lack knowledge or compassion or both. Then when Liza was in high school, she went to Sforzo | Dillingham | Stewart Orthopedics + Sports Medicine for a minor sports injury. They not only diagnosed her somewhat obscure problem, but explained things in a way that she understood without being patronizing or pedantic. When John needed rotator cuff surgery and when I had bursitis, Sforzo | Dillingham | Stewart Orthopedics + Sports Medicine – with their skilled diagnosticians, surgeons, and communicators – was our clear choice. We wouldn’t consider anywhere else.

As a very busy business owner in Sarasota, having not one, but two, massive rotator cuff tears had a debilitating effect on both my personal and professional life. From my first consultation with Sforzo | Dillingham | Stewart Orthopedics + Sports Medicine, I knew I was in good hands. The surgeons are board-certified and fellowship-trained, which gave me the confidence in achieving a successful outcome. More importantly, they patiently answered all of my questions and concerns. Both repairs were completely successful and I have regained full motion with absolutely no pain.
