Recommendation for Orthopedic Surgeon Needed.

Can anyone recommend a good orthopedic surgeon. I would prefer to have one that specializes in shoulders but I dont have a clue who to use?

 

try dr. jimmy tucker.i used him for my knee surgery but he does shoulders to i believe. i'll have to find his info for you. give me a bit.

 

thanks. He would work out perfect. My husband may have to have knee surgery and I would prefer to use the same dr for both. Just curious how long were you off work after your knee surgery?

 

i laid at home for a week and then went desk duty after that for about 2 weeks. after a month i was good as new even though they told me i wasnt

 

Dr Yocum is a real good one he did the rod in my leg.

 

Dr. Marvin Mummy performed my rotator cuff(right shoulder) surgery here in Fort Smith. The tendons were torn off of the bone. He had to go in and put in two titanium screws, grind a little bit of bone off then re attach the tendons. I would recommend him. He is in the new surgery center here in Fort Smith. River Valley Musculoskelatal Center 479-709-7000.

 

thanks for the recommendations guys. I will give them a look see.

 

Dr. Rudder in Hot Springs
Dr. Collins in Little Rock
Both are good shoulder surgeons.
Dr. Rudder also operates on knees.
I'm a Physical Therapist and work for Dr. Rudder.
Good Luck!
