I recently had surgery in December for rotator cuff. I had a frayed cuff.He cut it and repaired it. I searched long and hard for someone who would be confidant and good. On the recommendation of a friend, I chose Dr. Weinstein. Let me just say this. If you are looking for warm and fuzzy, move on. I was looking for intelligence and skill. I can get warm and fuzzy from my mother. This is my second surgery (different arm). I was amazed. I had very little pain, of course there will be some, but they have good drugs for that. My only complaint was the wait times. He is booked very tight and sometimes I was frustrated. I still give him 5 stars, as he did such a good job. BTW, I had my surgery at San Tan Surgery Center and they were wonderful. I would recommend him to anyone.
