Comments: My daughter plays college softball, and she started to develop pain in her throwing shoulder. The trainer set up an appointment for an MRI and a consultation with an Orthopedic doctor. That doctor looked at the MRI, said she had a torn labrum, and recommended surgery. We decided to make an appointment with Dr. Hendawi to have him examine her, look at her MRI, and have him do the surgery if needed. I am SO glad that we did. After examining her shoulder, he determined that she has Thoracic Outlet Syndrome and NOT a torn labrum. He gave her an injection, a prescription for an anti-inflammatory, and recommended physical therapy. It took just a few days, and she was already feeling relief. It's been about two weeks since our first visit with Dr. Hendawi, and she says her shoulder hasn't felt this good in a long time. She can actually sleep at night without the pain waking her up. She will continue to do some PT and will begin her throwing program this week. It honestly could not have gone better. Everyone at TMI has been great. Thank goodness we sought out Dr. Hendawi, or her career would likely be over. I could not recommend him highly enough.
