After experiencing repeat right shoulder dislocations for over fifteen years and fearing surgery, I learned about Dr. Joshua S. Dines, MD as being one of the top Orthopedic Shoulder Surgeons.
Immediately after meeting Dr. Dines for the first time in June 2015, all my years of fearing the surgery disappeared because I felt that his expertise, personality, reputation, skills, continued education, and commitment placed me in the best surgical hands in New York. The actual surgical experience on July 27, 2015 proved that Dr. Joshua Dines is amazing! I did not feel any pain after the surgery, all the staff at HSS was friendly and made me at ease with having the surgery, and my stitched cuts are invisible.
Dr. Dines responded to all my questions expeditiously. I am truly happy to have use of my right shoulder again without fear of dislocations thanks to Dr. Dines. Having surgery done by Dr. Dines not only repaired my torn labrum, but it restored my inner happiness and confidence as the threat and actual repeat shoulder dislocations hindered my life, physically and emotionally. I am very grateful to Dr. Joshua Dines and HSS.
