    Comments: I wanted to share my story of how I had a serious fall at home . I am 6ft 2 and weigh 473 lbs . I did serious damage to my shoulder . With the pandemic I had to wait several months before the public could have elective surgery . I went in for surgery on May 22, 2020 . Dr Gasbarro`s team was excellent . I was treated professionally and had no issues in setting up appointments and follow up`s . Dr Gasbarro did the surgery and everything went very well . I was expecting a pain level 10 / 10 . The following morning I was surprised to see that my pain level was a 3 . Thru out the recovery I had to wear a sling . I followed all of the rules and I took the medicine I was given on time . The recovery went well with using a recliner to sleep and to rest . I took showers with care . Like I said I followed the instructions that Dr Gasbarro gave me and I did fantastic . No one could believe that I never had pain higher than a 3 . I hope that I never have to have surgery again but if I did I would go straight back to Dr Gasbarro . I highly recommend Dr gasbarro . One year later I am fully recovered and doing everything that i could before . I do make sure that i am carefull and take care of my shoulder . Thank You Dr Gasbarro for a great experience . Thank You from the heart
