    Dr Kaback explained every stage of my RC repair and what could be expected along with all the possibilities. Once the surgery was complete, I experienced little to no pain. I was told recovery could take 3-6 months with a possibility of additional time. However, I was back to work and back at my weekly gym routine, in 3 months. Thank you Doc!

    I had my right shoulder replaced by Dr Kaback in June, 2021. The surgery has been wonderfully successful. My recovery and physical therapy went very well and I have no more pain at all. I am very pleased.

    Without reservation, I recommend Dr. Lee A.Kaback for shoulder surgery. I am a 73 year old male, and after living with a diagnosed partial rotator cuff tear for several years, I found my pain/discomfort increasing, especially night. I met with Dr. Kaback and after examining me, he recommended an MRI of my shoulder. The MRI showed a complete rotator cuff tear. I met with Dr. Kaback again, after the MRI, and he discussed all of my options. He took the time to address all my questions and concerns, and at no time did I feel rushed or "pressured" into surgery. I decided to have Dr. Kaback perform the surgery and I am extremely happy with the results. At 13 weeks post surgery, I was released from care and my shoulder is doing great, thanks to his surgical expertise. In my case, I think items important to note, that post op and through the weeks of physical therapy, the discomfort was minimal, much less than I expected.

    Dr. Kaback is an amazing surgeon. I wished I found him back in 2017. I would have not suffered in pain. He's a remarkably knowledgeable physician , who repaired my shoulder properly, after another physician blotched it up. I'll be forever thankful for him. Great bedside manner. That's important when a patient is anxious. Thank You Dr. I am finally pain free and I can move my shoulder something I thought I'd never do again
