Dr Carafino reviewed my shoulder replacement and then talked with me about additional issues that I am having. He recommended going to the Mayo Clinic for evaluation and treatment. I appreciated his input and the time he gave me about my medical issues.

We tried a couple types of injections for treatment of pain, numbers in both my shoulders. When they didn't entirely correct the issues further investigated into issues with cervical spine causing the issues and X-rayed, findings showed injuries from MVA and referred me to Dr Clifford for further testing and diagnostics.

Made sure that all question were answered & explained. That means a bunch to a non medical doctor person. Although I had hopes of a full recovery he was positive on the progress of extended movement & took a greater step to start d with the upper movement. Thank you so much Dr Carofino. Sonya Phelps
