How likely are you to recommend Dr. Bennett?
My injury: Subscapularis full thickness tear and long head biceps tendon (LHBT) sublaxation (dislocation). After discussing my injury with 8+ surgeons around the united states everyone suggested to cut my (long head) biceps tendon (procedure known as tenodesis) and reattach it on the humerus bone (arm), since it got out of the bicipetal groove. What common sense tells us: Since the biceps tendon is not torn and attached to the shoulder (but just dislocated), the best (and minimally invasive) solution would be to put the tendon back into its groove/pulley and restructure the ligaments that hold it stable there. Dr Bennett was the only surgeon in the United States that knew how to fix the bicipital groove (or bicipital pulley) that holds the biceps tendon in its place. All others wanted to perform tenodesis (that is cut the biceps tendon and anchor it on the humerus bone (arm). It has been two weeks (almost pain free) and it seems that Dr Bennett fixed my shoulder.
