Overall a good experience.

I don't usually give reviews but after seeing Dr. Cunningham, for a second opinion, I was very pleased and compelled to let others know. I left his office each time well informed, including being advised upfront of the cost, which I did not have with previous dr. The staff is awesome as well.
“Well worth it.”

I'm eight weeks out from shoulder surgery and almost back to normal. I believe the use of Stem cell has made a huge difference. My recovery has been much faster than a friend who had surgery at the same time without the use of stem cell.
“amazing”

The initial thought was an 80% rotator cuff tear. It ended up being 100% and I needed smoothing of bone. Dr. Cunningham gave me great info and took the time to explain what was going on. I had PRP in my hip earlier in the year. I took his advice and did it with my shoulder, also. The physical therapist commented that my recovery was *way* beyond normal and after five weeks I already have 100% range of motion over my head. Angelique, Bill, and Sergio (his staff) have been helpful, professional, and always willing to answers questions and explain the procedures.

Dr. Cunningham performed a meniscus repair and prp injection. My recovery was very fast and easy. My knee has never felt better. Dr. Cunningham spent a lot of time with me in my appointments, thoroughly explaining his plan, my options, and recovery. He really is a fantastic surgeon, and he and his staff are very kind and professional. I had a great experience and trust him implicitly.
“Dr. Cunningham is an impeccable surgeon and was very thoughtful and thorough in his communications with me.”

I ruptured an Achilles Tendon just before Christmas. Dr. Cunningham was able to fit me in before New Years. He prescribed PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) therapy at the time of surgery I did not know what to expect so the good results I obtained were either a good Physical Therapist or great genes. But, I had injured my knew at the time I ruptured the Achilles. This time we decided to just try a PRP injection. The results were very quick! And what a difference. I've got motion on the knee that I haven't had for years. There's still some pain but with all the arthritis this knee has I'm not surprised. I've known Dr. Cunningham from my son's sports injuries but now he's my Ortho Dr and will stay that way. And you've just got to try the PRP. This is a great office with really good support personnel. I was able to establish and excellent rapport with the staff and Dr. Cunningham. The key has been the trust and value that they have built into the relationship. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You.
