Report
I saw Dr Sher for a damaged rotator cuff. He clearly explained the surgical procedure, recovery time and potential risks. After surgery I had check up consults with him and 6 months later I'm feeling great. Would definitely recommend Dr Sher .

Report
Dr. Sher treated my shoulder inflammation in a totally professional and ethical manner. I was suffering severe pain in my right shoulder and he diagnosed it as Polymyalgia rheumatica, an auto inflammation disease. This disease is not operable but Dr. Sher was instrumental in helping me deal with the pain and his diagnosis and prognosis was 100% accurate. Thanks so much for your invaluable care and assistance.

Report
Having spent over 2 months in severe pain and great discomfort in my left shoulder, and after having seen several GP's, I was referred to Dr Doron Sher. Without hesitation he very quickly recognised my symptoms, arranged X-rays and diagnosed my condition. He arranged my pain management, fully informed me what to expect during the recovery process and has closely monitored my situation. Highly recommended.

Report
After my operation on my elbow he told me that he would give me free consultation if I had any further problems. All the time I had pain and discomfort. So when I did come back he deflected the problem and basically said the pain I have is not from his operating. The consultation lasted 5 mins and stung me with $230. Then told me to see another doctor to locate the pain then come back!!! I thought Doron Shor was the Surgeon. Not to be trusted.

I found Dr Sher to be very professional, knowledgeable, courteous and experienced. He was recommended to me and I was not disappointed at all. If you want someone you can trust for your surgery and give you the right advice before and after the procedure, I would recommend Dr Sher.
