Do any of my local friends recommend an orthopedic surgeon who specializes in shoulders? MRI shows I dislocated and tore the labrum in my shoulder while working out...

They have a Harbour View office and one on High Street in Portsmouth. 673-5680

I was going to also recommend Sam. He is the best. He also has an office near your house and works out of Chesapeake Regional. His Ches Office is: (757) 547-5145. That's what happens when you work out -:)

I'm sorry to hear about you r shoulder. Dr. Ernesto Luciano with Virginia Orthopaedic and Spine Specialists did mine almost 2 years ago. He's their shoulder guy. I am very pleased with the results. He also repaired a torn Labrum on an employee of ours. I can get you his # if you'd like!

Thanks so much everyone! I am meeting with Sam Brown next week to get this figured out! Good news is that he is right around the corner from my home, so that is a plus!

Brick Campbell did my shoulder surgery.

John Schaffer He did my shoulder a couple of years ago. Operates at DePaul. He did a great job! U of MI grad and he's from MI. Great personality. Felt comfortable talking with him and asking questions.
Looking for a GREAT orthopaedic surgeon specializing in total knee replacement in the Tidewater area. Suggestions please?
Cherri F. replied:
Cannot see Dr Carter or Jordan Young as they do not accept my insurance. So frustrated!
Colin P. replied:
Cherri. I work close and with these surgeons will send you some reccomendations tomorrow. And yes jordan young would have been the reccomendation. Dr Midas fixed my full achilles rupture.
Robin G. replied:
I work with knee replacement patients daily. Jordan Young is definitely the best but I also work with Atlantic orthopaedic at Sentara Leigh. I would say Dr. Gibson or Dr. Markam from Atlantic orthopaedic have good outcomes. Good luck! Also, all Sentara hospitals have pre- op classes for joint replacement. I would be happy to answer any questions you have. I'm in physical therapy at Sentara Leigh.
