I had two operations done with Dr Washburn. I have to say the first surgery was almost the same surgery University of Michigan did two years prior and Dr Washburn did ALOT better job with less in my arm to work with. The second surgery he did wounderful , the shoulder had a tendon separated and was extremely painful to use. the my primary care and the emergency room docs stated that i should only have about 30% usage in my arm witch i did. Doc Washburn repaired it and i have about 80% and hardly any pain. It ten fold better , so much better. I have seen allot of doctors from around the USA and Europe and i have to say Dr Washburn is one of the better surgeons i have experience . He treated me like i was a person and did the task very well. Took care of any pre-operation pain with no problem and post operation pain with no problem. Thank you so much Doc i do and did enjoy the visits and best of all the ability to use my left arm. Thank you so very much Dr Washburn Phill Kaminski
