Coming from out of state I was expedited through their facility on two different occasions at a high rate of speed. I saw only two individuals. The doctor and his assistant, who did everything except administer the gas and the injections, including collecting the money. I received no relief whatsoever from my treatments at this facility. After paying thousands of dollars, I was certainly expecting a Better result. I would have preferred Less hype and salesmanship and better relief from pain.

I had my shoulder injected with Stem cells by Dr. Grana about 6 months ago. I have been very…read morepleased with the results, and with the care I received by Kathryn and Dr. Grana. I was in terrible pain from a torn rotator cuff with multiple tears of the cuff and also a torn labrum (cartilage), and Stem cells were my last resort before surgery. I am so glad that I went with Dr. Grana! It took a couple of months before I started really feeling better, but then the healing took off and I feel like my shoulder is about 98% healed now. Even most of the clicking and popping I had is gone. I can do everything pain free now. I don't want to reinjure it so I am being careful but thinking of going back to the gym now and carefully strengthening the joint. I am extremely happy that I chose Regenerative Orthopedic and their "Live" stem cell transplant from my own bone marrow. The results for me have been fantastic! CS

For years I've had frozen shoulders on both sides but it was no longer painful and I didn't want…read moreany treatment, but while exercising to strengthen upper body muscles for Parkinson's, I did something to my right shoulder causing extreme pain on a Thursday. Friday it was so bad I tried to get into my Orthopedic specialists office for some help, but couldn't get in until the following Thursday. I called my pain doctor, and couldn't get in until Monday, and made an appointment. Saturday the pain was so severe I wanted to commit suicide. I went to as walk-in clinic to see what they could do. They did an X-ray that didn't show any break and figured it was just a sprain. I am also diabetic and steroid shots general play havoc with that condition and I try to avoid them if at all possible, but sometimes you have to do what you have to do and begged for a steroid shot to help with the pain. The doctor told me she couldn't put it directly in the shoulder, just the arm and wasn't sure it would help that much but I was willing to try anything and went for the shot that did nothing but throw my Blood sugars way off. On Monday I went to see my pain doctor. Didn't tell her about getting a steroid shot on Saturday, just described the pain and asked if she could inject a steroid shot in my shoulder. She could, and did, but it did nothing for the pain so Tuesday, I searched for an orthopedist who could see me promptly that day and found Dr. Lewis's office and especially surprised that he specialized in shoulders. I was lucky, they could see me that afternoon. I went in and sat with his nurse first to discuss what was going on, including the steroid shot I had on Saturday and Monday and she took notes. I told her I thought the steroid shots hadn't worked because they werre put in the wrong place. I then saw Dr. Lewis who personally took additional X-Rays, He said the shoulder looked fine and I didn't need to look at any replacement surgery anytime soon. Without telling him I had the earlier steroid shots, I told him I usually avoid steroid shots, but I was in such severe pain could he give me a shot in the shoulder and he said, "certainly, I'll go out and prepare one." He and his nurse left the room and were gone no more than 15 seconds when he walked back in and asked, "Did you just have a stteroid shot?" I explained what I had done and he said he couldn't give me another one for another 8 to 10 weeks and that the shot do work, but sometime take awhile to fully work. We scheduled a followup in 8 weeks. What that showed me was great communication between doctor and nurse that she knew to tell him quickly about my previous shots. The pain did subside for awhile, but has returned. On my 8 week appointment he recommended rehab and sent the referral over to the clinic I was already doing Parkinson's therapy. Five months later, the pain is still there and I've made an appointment to return and see if he wants to make a referral for any MRI to detect for a tear that wouldn't show up on an X-ray, and if so, should I do surgery to fix it. Don't know yet, but I can say I really think Dr. Lewis and his office staff are really great and very professional. I'd recommend them to anyone with a shoulder problem with the greatest confidence.

Seeing how kind and funny she is, and knowing she has over 20 years of experience made me feel comfortable right away. She explained everything step by step, so I always knew what to expect with each adjustment, including how things might sound or feel, which really helped calm my nerves and was not painful like I imagined. Originally, I came in with tense shoulders/upper back. Dr. Katherine was able to help relieve my tension and constructed a treatment plan, including specific chiropractic adjustments and electric muscle stimulator machine to eventually reverse the upper back/neck hump I've been developing from working in the corporate world. In one of my other visits, my feet/ankles were bothering me (ankle "clicks" and nerve in foot "tingling"). Dr. Katherine was able to adjust my ankles and scan my feet/posture to create custom orthotic inserts for my shoes and custom slide sandals with built-in orthotics, so with this combination now I'm able to walk comfortably without pain. Thank you Shaker Spine & Sport Institute! Also, I love the vibe too!!! It feels like a chiropractic boutique, with a thoughtfully designed space full of beautiful decor, plants, and relaxing music.

Dr. Shaker is a master at his craft!…read more Not only did he help me relieve my pain after 2 shoulder surgeries, but he helped me to be stronger than I was before! Dr. Shaker uses a treatment protocol called Trigenics that specifically targets the muscles at the neural level to help retrain your brain to turn off pain signals and turn on functional movement. That is a very simple definition. But all I know is that it works and I am back to playing sports, working out and living a pain free life! If you have any type of joint pain, muscle pain or weakness, whether it's post surgical or not, Dr. Shaker is the guy you need to go see!
