Dr. Wright-Chisem was great. We looked over my x-rays and he pointed out that my shoulder injury was not serious, that there were no tears or fractures and that I likely sustained a deep bone bruise. I asked about the need for any further treatment or PT and he just said to continue on with my normal activities. The soreness I have experienced has been reduced significantly on its own over several weeks so I'm glad the x-rays and diagnosis came out negative for any serious issue.
