My surgery date was August 17th 2023 and found out then that I was in the best hands possible. He repaired my shoulder with pines and plates and a bone graft. He then sent me hone with a Breg cold care machine to help with the pain and swelling. At first I though I would never have full use of my shoulder again but boy was I wrong! A year later and several months of physical therapy later, I'm at almost complete range of motion! I couldn't have seen a better surgeon! Dr. Privitera is strict but he works with you. He only wants the best for his patients and really pushes for improvement. It was physically and mentally rough at time but I got through it with flying colors. If you've seen Dr. Privitera, you already know how wonderful he is. Just know that if you're having a rough time post surgery.. He's got your back. You can and will get through it... just be patient and trust in the doctor. Thank you Dr. Privitera for everything you have helped me get through this past year.

My son is a division 1 wrestler at Binghamton University on a full scholarship. in the spring of…read more2018 he injured his shoulder initially he was told he needed to work through it but after several months and no improvement he was scheduled to have surgery by a surgeon in Binghamton. The surgery was performed in the fall of that year. After several months of rehab, the shoulder continued to cause pain and would even dislocate. After another evaluation by the first surgeon it was determined that another surgery was needed. We decided to seek a second opinion based on our previous experience and were recommended by a friend to WCCH. That is where we were introduced to dr. Privitera. He immediately made a great impression on my husband and I and most importantly on our son. After reviewing all of the Imaging and the prior operative reports dr. Privitera consulted with colleagues and decided to proceed with a quite expensive open bankart repair of my son's right shoulder. The surgery was performed in January of 2020 and after several months of rehab and physical therapy my son returned to the mat in October of that year. On January 3rd 2021 he wrestled in his first match in over two years without any pain in his shoulder. We can't thank Dr Privitera enough for getting my son back to the sport that he has loved since he was 7 years old. He is continuing to get stronger and we hope that success will follow. We have never regretted our decision to have dr. Privitera do the second surgery. He is a very caring surgeon who understood the importance of returning my son to the mat. He was extremely thorough during the surgery and took his time and did everything that was needed to ensure that his shoulder would be intact through a Collegiate sport that causes many strains on that joint. I recommend dr. Privitera to anyone who is looking for an orthopedic surgeon!!!!
