Dr. Carr listened intently to my concerns, and let me know that he would be making notes during our conversation. He was very pleasant and had a plan for going forward.

The Doctor and PA both were very thorough and explained the problem with my right shoulder very thoroughly and in a professional manner. I will be using Dr Carr and his PA when I decide to have my shoulder replaced. HSS has always had the highest of standards and is the reason I am still walking OK today.

Professional and was able to convey his expertise to a layperson flawlessly. Answered all of my questions and provided a referral to a colleague that was LA based, No question- if I still lived in NY, I would have my surgery with Dr. Carr in NY.

Dr did not look at surgical area after nurse removed sutures. The images during the surgery were not available to the Dr and us 2 weeks post surgery so he was limited Shari g info.
