Shoulder Dislocation

Patient image of: Roger Kelly

I am a police officer in NYC and was injured while performing my duties. I came to Dr. Taylor not knowing the extent of my injury. He diagnosed me with a dislocated shoulder and torn labrum. We decided surgery was the best option for me and it's the best decision I could have made. In less than 6 months I was able to return to work with no limitations. Best of all I've remained pain free after a very strict physical therapy guideline given to me by Dr. Taylor and have been able to go back to doing everything I enjoy outside of work. Thank you to Dr. Taylor and his staff for making my family and I feel at home and for all of your great work.
