Patient Testimonials

I had a great experience with Dr. Re. He's very focused and I had a good result from my shoulder surgery. Have to go back for the other one.

01

I have had 3 surgeries with Dr. Re and would recommend him highly

02

Paul is a very skilled physician and surgeon. I came to him again for my left shoulder rotator cuff because of his excellence in repairing my right shoulder six years ago. There is no need to seek out a Boston hospital when there is quality medical care right here at Emerson and Concord Orthopedic Affiliates.

03

Dr. Re and his team are great! I broke my shoulder while skiing. They quickly scheduled me for scans, Dr. Re performed the arthroscopic surgery, and recovery is going very well. He and his team do a great job in all respects and I highly recommend him.

04

First of all, my rotator cuff surgery done by Dr. Re has been great. I now have regained full use and rotation of my arm. All done through hardly visible small incisions in my shoulder! Dr. Re is attentive, personal, and funny! We are incredibly blessed by work/attitude of a doctor like Paul Re.

05

I would recommend Dr. Re to anyone considering Rotator Cuff surgery

06

Dr. Re and all of the staff were fantastic. my appt. started out as a 2nd opinion, but within minutes I knew Dr. Re was the dr. and surgeon I wanted to take care of my knee. He took the time to explain everything to me; my injury, both pre and post surgery and made me feel very comfortable with my treatment. I would recommend Dr. Re to anyone with a knee injury.

07

I fell while hiking and injured my shoulder - dislocated, broken socket bone, torn rotator cuff, torn ligaments, torn tendons. In short my shoulder was a mess. My orthopedic surgeon, and friend, recommended I have surgery with Dr. Re. Surgery went as described, and recovery progressed exactly as predicted. Now six months later I am still healing. But, I have almost complete range of motion and am rapidly re-gaining strength. Dr Re did remarkable work to put the shoulder back together.

08

Dr. Re is the nicest, most professional doctor and a pleasure to work with. He fixed the rotator cuff in my shoulder with two painless cortisone shots and was very honest about my NOT needing surgery, which I was dreading and afraid all doctors would do. Wonderful guy, terrific outcome for me. Highly recommend him!

09

Dr Re was very kind and supportive during a difficult time. I had seen him as a second opinion and it was clear that he should perform my surgery. He and his staff made it very clear what I should expect and how long it would take to recover. He and his staff were incredibly supportive and available. His kind and low key demeanor is a perfect compliment to his surgical skills.

10

Dr. Re recently performed an arthroscopy/bone spur removal on my shoulder. I found him to be kind and supportive to me both pre and post-op; he is a man of few words but is clearly a very intelligent man and an excellent surgeon. While he wastes no words, he patiently listened and responded to my questions and made sure that I understood, on the first post-op office visit, that I need to slowly ease back into my activities, sensing how impatient I am to get going now that he has fixed my arm.

11

Good bedside manner. Explains things well. I have had 3 surgeries with him.

12

A fall against my right shoulder resulted in a large tear in my rotator cuff. Dr. Re performed arthroscopic surgery on my shoulder and my arm feels great again. Dr. Re is very professional and an amazing surgeon! I would highly recommend him if you are looking for the "BEST" orthopedic surgeon to treat your injury.

13

I am pleased with the level of care and attention which I received before and following my rotator cuff surgery.

15

Dr. Re operated on both my husbands shoulder as well as my knee. We are very pleased with the results.

16

diagnosis, surgery, and post op. I was extremely pleased with the explanation of injury and what the surgery process was. Surgery went much better than planned. Top marks in my book.

17

I had a massive tear in my rotor cuff. Dr Re fixed me up and I was back in business. I have full mobility in my shoulder. Dr Re was professional and friendly. I would absolutely recommend Dr Re and his staff.b

18

Dr. Re and his team are great! I broke my shoulder skiing. The team scheduled me immediately to get the scans done, Dr. Re performed the arthroscopic surgery, and the recovery has been great. He runs a great practice and I highly recommend him. ETG

19

I did two rotator cuff surgeries (left and right, 2 years apart) with Dr. Re and if I had another shoulder to do I would surely use him again. Excellent surgeon, follow-up appts, demeanor, and office visits to get me through the required steps of healing (pre/post surgery). Dr. Re knows his stuff and my health and comfort related to my shoulders today are a testament to his medical thoroughness and experience. A+ Highly Recommend!

I would recommend Dr. Re to anyone considering Rotator Cuff surgery

I had shoulder surgery by Dr. Re. He may not have the softest bedside manner, but he took as much time as necessary to answer all of my questions at every stage. The surgery went very well, and rehab matched the time frame he estimated with no set backs. I'd go back to him without reservation. Staff was awesome too.

Dr Re is a terrific doctor. I have seen him three times. Badly torn ankle 20+ years ago. Recently had frozen shoulder, and he gave me an injection. Very professional and thorough. I have utmost confidence in his skill and liked his bedside manner. Already have recommended!

Good bedside manner. Explains things well. I have had 3 surgeries with him

A fall against my right shoulder resulted in a large tear in my rotator cuff. Dr. Re performed arthroscopic surgery on my shoulder and my arm feels great again. Dr. Re is very professional and an amazing surgeon! I would highly recommend him if you are looking for the "BEST" orthopedic surgeon to treat your injury.

Direct, caring and efficient. Gave me choices rather than dictating a plan. Excellent outstanding surgical skills and reputation

Dr. Re is caring and dedicated without any pretention or big ego. He carefully explains all the tests and procedure that he will perform so that you understand completely. He's a star.

I was actually in seeing Dr. Driscoll who called in Dr. Re when my MRI revealed I had no ACL. So, without being on his schedule, Dr. Re came in and reviewed my MRI, examined my knee and helped lead a wonderful, helpful conversation about my medical situation. When I left, I offered to pay for Dr. Re's consultation, and the office wouldn't let me! Great caring doctor!

Straight forward and caring. I saw many surgeons before him who couldn't give me an answer. He examined me first and then did his own interpretation of the MRI himself while other rely on the radiologist, Dr Re read it himself and found things other had missed. He helped and fixed me where others could not

Dr. Re was very accommodating in scheduling surgery very soon after a torn ACL (sports injury), allowing our daughter to return to college on time. Her recovery from surgery has been stellar, all questions are carefully considered and answered. We feel that she is in very capable and competent hands. It is a long road to full recovery but feel that Dr. Re's experience and competence has given her a head start!

Dr. Re is the kind of doctor you always hope to find but so rarely do these days. His technical skills were certainly in evidence when he had to rebuild my shoulder "the old fashioned way" with bone grafts , due to my allergy to metals. Dr. Re rescued me after a very bad experience at another facility - he saved my shoulder and my sanity. He also treated this patient as a person, not just as a profit making unit. Dr. Re always takes time to not only see me himself but the time to explain, encourage, and reassure. He also makes sure his whole team operates in this more humane and definitely more effective way. Truly amazing doctor and an exceptional human being!

Dr. Re is the best, nicest doctor I've ever seen about anything. He saved my frozen shoulder (was honest that I didn't need surgery) and two cortisone shots later (painless) I've made a full recovery.

Excellent experience. Highly recommend Dr. Re.

I have been a patient of Dr. Re's for over 5 years and he's performed surgery on both knees ~ Kneecap realignments and lateral releases for both. It's like he's given me a new lease on life and I can get around so much easier and without the pain I had. He takes the time to explain the procedures and makes sure I was at ease. We even had some great laughs along the way. The bonus is the staff that supports him is fabulous and is almost like an extended part of our family now. I recommend Dr. Re highly!

Excellent results on two separate injuries

Someone told me he was the best shoulder surgeon in Boston. Well he fixed mine! Highly recommended.

Dr. Re was one of the kindest, most professional doctors I've ever met. He fixed my rotator cuff with two painless cortisone shots and was very honest about my not needing surgery, which I was dreading to hear from a surgeon! The best guy, and not just because he cured me.

Dr. Re performed amazing, successful surgeries on both my husband and me. He's also encouraging, gives patient, thoughtful information, and is funny to boot.

He was able to fix my frozen shoulder without surgery. Really cares about his patients

Dr. Re fixed a very complicated fib-tib fracture on my husband, who now walks with little or no trouble - something that was doubtful when he went in for that surgery. Dr. Re also diagnosed and repaired my messed up shoulder, leaving me happy with no residual problems at all. A brilliant, caring, gentle professional whose focus is all about helping the patient. Not a man who is chatty, but listens very carefully and works wonders. He is the best.

Best Shoulder Guy there is!
