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.

Which is another reason I recommend Dr. Sullivan---if you have a problem that requires more specialized care, he will tell you, he is no "cowboy" He will also try to avoid surgery if possible, something that most Florida surgeons rarely do.
