Dr. Cuomo replaced my shoulder in 2013. She totally made me feel relaxed prior to my surgery. Dr Cuomo’s follow up during my recovery was exceptional. Seven years later I’m still lifting weights and am pain free.

Dr. Cuomo and her team replaced my shoulder in 2013 and the results were amazing. It’s been 5 years now and I’m still working out (lighter weights) and pain free. Her office staff especially Adrianna coordinated all appointments perfectly and provide reassurance. In summary Dr Cuomo is the best and provided incredible followup unseen nowadays.

Found Dr France Cuomo in 1997 . She did my left shoulder . 2010 I fell on a snowy day she did surgery again on my right shoulder . Injuried my right shoulder four weeks ago , RN helped me find her and she will repair my shoulder again . I trust this woman with my life . She has been nothing other than a gift from God to me . Love her dearly and her amazing staff . She is the best surgeon ever .
