Dr. Dines performed an arthroscopy to repair a significant labral tear in my left shoulder in April. I cannot recommend him enough. He and his team were as competent, efficient, and kind as its gets. After just a few months of physical therapy, my shoulder is feeling good as new!

Dr Dines is my favorite doctor on the planet. I had a very complicated shoulder issue and after several other shoulder surgeries, I saw Dr Dines for a total reverse shoulder replacement. Putting aside that he is a brilliant surgeon, Dr Dines is direct, funny and encouraging. He was instrumental in helping me through a very difficult time. I am finally out of pain and back to being active! I feel blessed that he was my surgeon.

I had UCL surgery and was in Dr Dines' expert hands. From consultation to post surgery, I felt reassured and supported. I was able to return to my sport and have recommended him to my teammates.

This doctor spent all but 10 minutes with me, some of the time cursing and insulting me due his intolerance for questions I was asking him. This is an arrogant doctor who might be a good surgeon but whose bedside manner was inadequate.

I was so fortunate to have found Dr. Dines. It’s an extremely difficult time when you’re injured and realize you need a surgical procedure. But, the moment you meet Dr. Dines, you know if anyone is going to get you back to where you want to be, it’s him.When Dr. Dines walks into a room, it’s as though an astronaut walked in. He precisely and clearly explains everything in a positive manner and it’s contagious. It’s very apparent, this is an extremely talented surgeon. Dr. Dines put all my worries at ease, because he is such ... read more

I had a bike accident and badly broke my shoulder with 3 displacements on 5/2. On 5/7 I had an Open Reduction Internal Fixation of the Proximal Humerus. Lots of screws and a big metal plate live in my shoulder now. Dr. Dines and his team did an amazing job and were there for me every step of the way during my recovery. I would email him when things didn't seem right, and he even called me on a Saturday afternoon after receiving one of my messages crying out in pain. He put me at ease, told me it was "normal" and continued to... read more

I had complications from recent shoulder replacement surgery and I went to Dr Joshua Dines for a 2nd opinion before scheduling follow up surgery. Dr. Dr Dines took the time to listen to and answer all of my questions and concerns. He then explained in detail, the nature of the complications and the type of surgical procedure necessary to make the repairs. His highly efficient and responsive team (Linda and Valerie) quickly got me scheduled for surgery at HSS and helped me navigate the insurance approval process. I am 2 weeks... read more
