Dr. Anthony Romeo Interviewed in Becker’s Orthopedic Review about Minimally-Invasive Total Shoulder Replacements

Becker’s Orthopedic Review has published an interview with Dr. Anthony Romeo about Minimally-Invasive Total Shoulder Replacement.

“I was motivated by the fact that one of the most challenging problem with regards to return to function after a shoulder replacement has been how well the rotator cuff tendon heals after surgery.
