Yogi with a New Shoulder – Thanks to AHI
"As an avid yogi, I tried my best to ignore the shoulder pain I was experiencing during plank and chaturanga for over 2 years. However, after falling from my bike, the pain became too excruciating to dismiss any longer. Although I was scared to undergo any kind of surgery, I knew I had to pursue some type of treatment. The first doctor I saw told me surgery was the only option, but in no way eased my anxiety about the procedure. I was more scared than before I met him. So, I kept looking...
After a friend’s recommendation, I was pleasantly surprised to have such a positive experience with American Hip Institute for a second opinion. Not only did they have expert training, but they also had an amazing bedside manner! They made me feel so at ease when discussing the procedure that I booked my surgery that same day. The office staff was so friendly, and the facility was so bright and new that all my visits were enjoyable.
When I committed to undergoing shoulder arthroscopy, my friends warned me of the pain I was about to experience; however, the American Hip Institute & Orthopedic Specialists team made the process as easy and pain-free as possible. Now, I am back to yoga and looking forward to snow skiing this winter. Thanks, American Hip Institute, for not only fixing my shoulder, but also making my experience so pleasant!"
