Was mis diagnosed by a red neck PA about a year ago and things are much worse a year later. MRA showed a partial tear so don't understand how PA missed it. Mountain biking and off road are OK but normal life sucks. Talked to some folks but would appreciate any input.
I highly recommend the ortho I have used in McKinney for my shoulder work. Will look his name up if interested.
I had 90% full thickness tear, with full AC separation. I went to Dr Joseph Stein at christus mother francis in Tyler TX.
He repaired both issues at the same time. This was a very difficult procedure and he knocked it out of the park.
I followed rehab protocol and was back on the bike in 6 months and a year later feel great! If your insurance allows do yourself a favor and give this man a call.

I had a partial tear, not bad but very painful. I went to a good physical therapist who showed me a whole new way of working out my back to support and stabilize my shoulders. Took about 6 weeks, but zero pain. He also suggested peptide therapy, but I didn’t do that. I’m about 6 months out and still no pain from it.

He fixed my rotator cuff on my right shoulder in 2024 and it's as good as new. I had a full tear along with reattaching my bicep. Took about 6 months of PT after to get back to 100%. He recently fixed my left shoulder after a crash in August at Oak Hill and I am 4 weeks post surgery right now. So far so good. He and his staff are the best in the business.
Thanks gents. After getting 4 opinions I'm going with Doc Kevin Kruse. He does a technique called the SpeedPatch and Locker System, that's been highly successful and 2 of the docs I talked to want to start using it. I had a riding buddy use this doc and he is back at 6 months. Out of the sling in 2 days. It's Doc Kruse is on You Tube with video of the procedure.

Plano Sports has taken care of me for thirty years. McGarry is the shoulder guy. Prescribed PT for what I was certain was rotator cuff. It worked. Twice.
You highly recommend the guy that worked on your shoulder but you can’t remember his name?
I’m calling bullshit
Dr Henry Smalls in Houston, Texas. One of the best in the world.
Also who fixed Coenen up after southwick
