I can't speak on the rehab quality but I can speak on what not to do after surgery. Do only what the doctor tells you as far as activity with that arm, you can tear an anchor screw loose so easily. I didn't follow instructions and pulled one anchor out in the first week and had to have the surgery re-done two weeks later. Had to use a sling for 9 weeks instead of the normal 6 weeks. After the second surgery I only did what I was told I could do with that arm, still works after 10 years.
