I had a very difficult shoulder injury that torn my labrum after having a seizure due to an adverse reaction to medication. The labrum was repaired quite nicely, however, I was still having pain and it was discovered that the arthritis in my shoulder was very advanced due to the trauma. After a second surgery to remove scar tissue with no success, Dr. Nydick finally suggested a shoulder replacement. He was hesitant due to my young age, 39, but there were no other alternatives and living in pain for years until I am older was not in the cards. The replacement went great and my recovery time was well above the normal progression. After a few months I had full range of motion and was able to take less and less of my pain medication to the point where I am pain medication free! Thank you so much Dr. Nydick for your patience and determination to fix my problem and live a pain free life from now on. You truly are a masterful surgeon and I would highly recommend Dr. Nydick to anyone in need of shoulder treatment. Dr. Nydick and the entire Florida Orthopaedic Institute staff were fantastic and I could not have had a better experience. Thanks again!
