After suffering a severe shoulder injury in 2016, I was worried about possible rotator cuff repair surgery having heard horror stories about severe pain, long recovery times, and poor outcomes. I was referred to Dr. Mark Schultzel who recommended a reverse total shoulder joint replacement rather than traditional rotator cuff surgery. He said it had better outcomes, less pain, and shorter recovery times than traditional surgery, especially for older patients (I’m in my 80’s). Although it sounded too good to be true, he was ri... read more
I'm not in the habit of leaving reviews for things I buy or for services rendered, but in this case I will make an exception. I was diagnosed with sever osteoarthritis in my left shoulder and was given Dr. Schultzel as my surgeon. After discussing my options for replacement with him I went in for surgery. I have to say that I was VERY pleased with the outcome. Having already had a knee and hip replacement though, I knew that was only half the battle, the rest of the recovery was up to me. Being adamant about doing the exerci... read more
Dec.,2016 I injured my upper right shoulder. I had several visits then had an x-ray to discover I have a torn rotator cuff. On 4/2017 was my first exam with Dr. Schultzel and received my first cortisone injection which was a great relief of my pain. I now receive the cortisone every 3 months to control the pain.Due to my age of 83, this is the best type of care i need. Norma Tonin
Arriving in the ER with a shattered shoulder, I was so lucky to be referred to Dr Mark Schultzel for surgery. In the process he not only replaced my shoulder with a new artificial one,he repaired a severely fractured 78 year old set of bones. Not only is he a skilled surgeon, he is engaging and most comforting. Since my successful surgery was now one year ago, with no inhibiting results. I must wait one year to see him again.
Dr Schultzel, the man, the legend, the surgeon extraordinary, what a great gig he did on my right shoulder. He really cares about all of us his patients always up and pleasant a real person great to be around, Mark keep up the good work looking forward to similar results with the left one will know soon and I'm sure it will be great thank you very much.
Dr. Schultzel did an amazing job with my shoulder replacement. My shoulder was completely ravaged by osteoarthritis leaving me unable to even washing my hair. Now 6 months after my total shoulder replacement, I’m able to resume almost all of my previous activities. The main concern he seems to have regarding my shoulder is for me not to lift more than 25 lbs with the arm/shoulder. Great job Dr. Shultzel. Thank you.
This is the second surgery I have had with Dr. Mark Schultzel two years ago and had the same surgery on the left knee and haven't had any problems with it. The Dr. is very professional I would recommend Dr. Schultzel with anyone having to have a torn meniscus surgery, the Dr. was a strait shooter with me on what needs to be done with my knee and didn't BS me which I felt was a nice relief to hear (plus the wife loves him as he got me to quit smoking after 30+ years) this is why I returned to Dr. Schultzel for the right knee ... read more
Dr. Schultzel was a blessing for me. I had cancer in my left breast. Surgery, chemo, and radiation. A couple of years later. My left shoulder would give me such pain. I thought it was due to all the damage. Dr Schultzel said it was bone on bone. I needed a replacement. He informed me about the risks, because of my cancer, it was high. I just wanted the pain to stop. So we set a date. The day of the surgery, Dr Schultzel, informed me of the procedure. I awoke to no pain, or dizziness. That wa
If we could give Dr. Schultzel 10 stars we would ! His care and compassion are simple the best we have ever experienced. Dr. Schultzel's knowledge and expertise truly shine through in his passion for what he loves doing. Every single time we have gone in to see him, he is always pleasant and happy to see us. I have been a nurse for 35 years and have never met a physician with the bedside manner and professionalism that Dr. Schultzel has. Thank you Dr. Schultzel you are simply the best !
