Here is what other visitors have had to say about ShoulderDoc.co.uk:

 "Shoulderdoc.co.uk is a breath of fresh air for patients and clinicians alike. It provides clear yet concise advice on all manner of shoulder complaints affecting both the sporting and everyday patient. Patient users of the site will find the site not overwhelming but informative and empowering. The clinician too will find this site an invaluable aid to explaining procedures and conditions to patients using the rich easy to navigate graphical interface. Overall it is hoped that other health care professionals learn from Mr Funk and his approach to understanding the needs of the patients of the present and future." - Dr James Brown, FFSEM. Specialist Sport + Musculoskeletal Physician
 "Hi. Just want to say how user friendly and informative i found the ShoulderDoc website - thanks. Wandering into cyber space to glean anything to enhance my ignorance on the shoulder replacements - Mrs Roebuck has sealed my commitment to seek Copeland shoulder replacements rather than the conventional shoulder replacements and, furthermore, provided a reassurance around my uncertainty of this surgery. Chris"
 "After a visit to my ortho clinic today, I thought I would go online and get a better understanding of my shoulder problem. I would just like to say that I found your website very informative. The information contained was easy to understand. Full marks to you. Keep up the good work."

"Dear Mr.Funk,
You have a fantastic website and I congratulate you for this excellent service you've done for the orthopaedic community. I am aspiring to become a shoulder surgeon and currently I am training in the south west region. I was very impressed by the patient information given in the website. I am developing patient information leaflets for my Hospital (NHS) and I was wondering if I could use some of the information from the website and pass it on to the patients. I will be ever so grateful to you and I am sure the patients will benefit from it. Many thanks and regards."

 Dear ShoulderDoc
I've just spent a wonderful 4 hours perusing your site. I'm a medical record coder in New Jersey (USA) and have been struggling to understand the different procedures and their components to improve my accuracy. Your site has such clear illustrations and explanations. I particularly loved the animations. Most helpful, many thanks!
 "Hi! I found your web site very interesting and useful in helping me diagnose my recent shoulder injury."

  "Dear Mr Funk I am a patient of yours at the present time. I received a letter from your clinic which said that I had a SLAP tear in my shoulder. I had asked several GPs what this means and no-one could tell me what it was. Today I found this website and now I can fully understand what my problem is and have a lot more information on my condition. Thank you for providing this web site. It has been a great help and is full of easy to understand information.
Thank You "

 "Being an osteopath working with gymnasts / trampolinists at national level, I find Shoulderdoc very useful for myself to have an improved visualisation of shoulder a) arthroscopic procedure, b) 3-D anatomy and c) enhanced explanation to athlete if asked.   I also recommend it to students studying osteopathy during tutorials and they find most helpful. Thanks Phil A"
 "I am an Egyptian orthopedic surgeon, I am preparing an M.D. thesis on "Arthroscopic stabilization of recurrent anterior shoulder instability" and I found your site very interesting containing alot of helpful information for my thesis. I would like to thank you a lot for your great effort in estabilishing this wonderful work."
 "I would like to commend your exercises for a frozen shoulder. I printed them off from your website at the end of Nov.05. Prior to this I had a year of a painful left shoulder in which I had received steroid injections and had done some stretches but with no great change. Following your disciplines every morning I now have a huge improvement in movement and though still stiff the pain factor has reduced immensely."
   What a fantastic site yours is. From all the information available and along with my surgeon told me the procedure, while still painful at the moment is fully explained and understandable to the recipient of shoulder surgery!
  Just spent hours reading about all sorts of wonderful things on the site -- great work shoulderdoc.
 This is by far the best site on shoulders I've found on the internet.
 Shoulderdoc, it has been a real pleasure to see a consultant who really values his patients perspective and cares. ... This website has helped me maintain my faith in the intrinsic goodness and value of therapeutic intervention for patients. Thanks, once again.
  A brilliant website and, am happy to report, that the physios at the hospital do in fact refer often to your various notes.
 After several months of Physio with no success and of terrible pain in my shoulder I'm now off to see a surgeon re my frozen shoulder. Thanks for a wonderful informative site that has given me an insight into what I can expect re surgery and other options. that will be made available to me.
  Wow, this website should be given to all shoulder patients on discharge, a big comfort! Thanks to the medical professionals for giving their valuable time to the likes of me.
  A very informative, well set up web site. I can relate to everything I have been reading and this has helped me to understand my problem. Thank you very much.
  I love the website which is most informative and helpful.
 A very useful website. I've just had a golfers elbow operation.
I play tennis twice a week and nobody can understand why a tennis player can get golfers elbow. I tell people to revert to your website and this will give them a full insight to why its called this. thanks
The site is a brilliant area of education and information.
 Many thanks for updating your website on elbows, I fully understand the workings of the joint now, all 77 pages you must have worked very hard in putting them together. This website is excellent source of info for patients and doctors. well done.
 Thank you for this website and for caring and understanding that this is a much needed tool and sanctuary that will help vulnerable patients to be able to find support and strength to face what lies ahead.

 Am feeling really nervous pre surgery for AC joint .! But your website has explained exactly what is being done.! Thankyou. Feel better prepared now and will hopefully be in less pain at last.
 What a wonderful site - thank you for sharing your extensive knowledge and protocols. It really helps to reference your site to effectively treat a patient with an operation you have not rehabilitated before.
 Had very little information post op for AC joint  and your site has been a godsend. The exercises are easy to follow and well explained and tell me what I can and can't do. As my physio has still not been arranged this site has been invaluable.Unfortunately not all services match yours! Keep up the good work!!!

The title is: A comparative study in the use of Magnetic Resonance Imaging versus Arthroscopy in shoulder injuries. I have found you website very useful in assisting me to increase my understanding in the details of shoulder injuries and the treatment. Many Thanks
