How likely are you to recommend Dr. Hirahara?
If you are looking for a more talented, more up-to-date shoulder Doc then you are wasting your time. Dr. Hiraha performed a state of the art SCR procedure on my left shoulder 2 years ago when other Doc's said it was inoperable. Result, I have a perfectly functioning Left shoulder and arm with zero pain. Look up SCR and Google Dr. Hirahara and behold. You can thank me later.
