Joint Replacement Surgeon – Shoulder

Patient Testimonials

Dr. Butler has replaced both shoulders in the last 6 months, one in June and one in October. In both cases, all the debilitating pain was immediately gone upon awakening after surgery and minimal to no pain (other than during PT) during the 6 weeks of recovery in a shoulder immobilizer. The first shoulder is now totally operational and the second is well on its way. Many thanks to a gifted and talented surgeon!

Hands down, Dr. Butler is the doctor you want to operate on your shoulder. I had right shoulder replacement and it's now the good shoulder. Better than the left shoulder.
I can reach over my head with no pain. The recuperating time and level of pain during rehab was very tolerable. Dr. Butler does 5+ aftercare and is genuinely concerned with how you're doing. Highly recommended. Thanks to all the office and nurses who made this possible.

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Bryan Butler and his staff especially Morgan L. Williams, PA. Dr. Butler did a total reverse replacement of my right shoulder on December 15, 2020 after months of suffering excruciating pain and loss of mobility. The surgery went perfectly, hardly any pain afterwards. Instructions were clear, follow ups thorough and the whole post op process has gone without a hitch. Wonderful professionals and wonderful human beings as well. Today was my last scheduled follow up appointment and I just want to say thank you again and God bless you.

Dr. Donaldson has been nothing but a dream come true I’m so happy with my results he did a total shoulder replacement. Everything is going so good therapy is coming along. I haven’t felt so good and so long. I thank the doctor and everyone involved with my surgery right down to the therapy people, thank you so much. If you need a doctor for a shoulder issue, Donaldson is your man.

I have had a great overall experience with the entire situation. I had my right shoulder replaced with a new operation called a reverse shoulder replacement. It has been a little more than a month, and I have started to fish again. Was not expecting to fish this soon after the operation. I just wanted to thank Dr Donaldson and all his staff and the PT Staff as well.
