    Comments: Thanks to Dr. Shawn Hennigan both my shoulders are now pain free. I can again reach up to high cupboards. I can now do everyday chores, cut grass, shovel and blow snow, dig and plant a garden, and sleep - all without shoulder pain.

    I had researched Doc H. and knew he was fellowship trained, as well as broadly experienced in his chosen specialty. He has done many shoulder procedures, and is an expert in his field. I was and am confident he is a topnotch surgeon.

    Doc. H. chose reverse total shoulder replacements for both my shoulders. He thoroughly explained the diagnosis, procedure and expected outcome. He answered my many questions. He left the timetable for each procedure entirely in my hands. I put off having the procedure for more than a year by getting injections. Eventually the injections no longer worked.

    I had my two replacements a year apart. I am grateful that Doc. H. was here when I needed him. I found him to be kind, understanding, knowledgeable and at the cutting-edge of shoulder replacements.

    My new shoulders are great, and I thank Dr. Hennigan for them.
