Patient Reviews
Mar 11, 2024
My son was fortunate to have Dr. Balint do his shoulder surgery recently and I am so grateful for Dr. Balint's experience and capable hands. I am sure that zillions of pervious D1 athletes and patients feel the same way. As the daughter of a General Surgeon, I was a bit anxious, but If you need shoulder surgery, RUN, not walk, to him!
