Anyone got any good stories of shoulder surgery in Melbourne - to the point they'd recommend a particular surgeon?
I mean good as in:
- will explain clearly what's wrong and how they'll fix it
- did a great job with the knife
- provided adequate rehab advice
- recovery was as planned, shoulder was repaired
- overall just genuinely happy with the whole experience (despite the inconvenience?)
I've got one name from the sports doc, but this being the first time in 42yrs of life that someone will actually cut into me (other than lump the dermo cut out of my back), I'm likely to get a 2nd opinion. I've got 5 other names, but they're all "I've heard this one's good" type references. It may sound strange, but even a mountain biker I don't know on here saying "I saw this surgeon and they were awesome" could sway me somewhat. Especially if it's one of the other 5 names.
Thanks.
