I was assigned Dr. Sullivan after I fell in my garage shattering my shoulder. Very nice guy...he took time with me to explain the severity of my injury. However, he is not a shoulder specialist which is what I needed. I asked for a second opinion but was told NO shoulder specialists were available here, I would have to go to Tampa or Orlando. Luckily, my friends found the best rated shoulder specialist here in TV.
While the search was going on Dr. Sullivan came to my room, he said he totally understood why I wanted a specialist as my injury was a life altering event. He changed his surgical schedule to give me more time. I could not have asked for more.
My injury required the total reverse replacement which is used for severe arthritis and when the rotator cuff is destroyed.
I could recommend Dr. Sullivan based on his bedside manner. And I highly recommend Dr. Issac Mitchell of TriCounty Orthopedics who did my surgery.
