Dr. Titelman was very thorough on my visit, explaining my condition in great detail and treatment options. I have been fortunate enough to know him for several years, and can attest that he's a very thoughtful and kind person, as well as an excellent surgeon. I highly recommend him..

I can't say enough great things about Dr. Robert Titelman. After two failed shoulder surgeries by another surgeon, I was beginning to lose hope. Then I found Dr. Titelman, and it was truly life-changing. He performed a total reverse shoulder replacement, and thanks to his expert surgical skills, compassion, and incredible bedside manner, I finally feel like I have my life back. Dr. Titelman took the time to listen, answer all my questions, and made me feel confident and cared for every step of the way. If you're in need of shoulder surgery, look no further—Dr. Titelman is your man! Thank you, Sir, for everything you've done!

Dr.Titleman listen to everything you have to say. He has compassion and gets to the bottom of my shoulder pain and problems. He is very knowledgeable and understanding of my problems and he orders the exact test that's needed and he explains and draws out his findings to you to where you can understand what has to be done. I recommend him very highly. Thank you Dr. Robert Titleman.

One of the best doctors we’ve encountered. Thoughtful, caring and incredible surgeon. He was able to fix what the ER trauma surgeon called “the gnarliest break I’ve ever seen”

Dr. Titelman takes the time because he knows it matters! He explains the situation and provides answers to questions and or concerns without being superior or coming across as too busy. He also doesn’t go the surgery as the answer if there is an option to possibly avoid it. My experience, AC joint reconstruction 10 yrs ago & now an avulsion fracture. I would recommend him without hesitation.
