🩺 Patient Recovery Story

This patient’s journey highlights how recovery can sometimes involve more than one step—and patience along the way.

After first injuring her knee and undergoing surgery, she gradually worked through the recovery process. While arthritis created a few setbacks, consistent care and rehabilitation helped her regain strength and stability.

Later, persistent shoulder pain led to another challenge. When physical therapy alone wasn’t resolving the stiffness, we moved forward with a minimally invasive arthroscopic procedure to restore mobility and relieve discomfort.

Recovery required commitment, including regular physical therapy and finding the right therapist who could focus on her specific needs. With the right surgical care and rehabilitation plan, she is now feeling stronger and more confident in her movement.

Her story is a reminder that healing is a process—and with the right support, patience, and persistence, progress is always possible.

🩺 MRI Review: Why It Matters

An MRI review plays a key role in understanding a patient’s condition and guiding the most accurate treatment plan.

At Manhattan Orthopedic Care, reviewing the MRI can be part of an initial consultation with Dr. Tehrany or a second-opinion visit. In either case, it is an essential step in the diagnostic process.

During the consultation, Dr. Tehrany carefully evaluates the patient’s medical history, performs a thorough physical examination, and reviews the MRI images in detail. While many diagnoses can be suspected through clinical evaluation alone, the MRI provides deeper insight into the structures inside the joint.

This comprehensive approach helps ensure that each patient receives a clear diagnosis and a treatment plan tailored to their specific condition.

🩺 Patient Recovery Story

After undergoing shoulder reconstruction for a biceps injury, this patient shares how his experience with Dr. Tehrany and the team helped make the recovery process smoother than expected.

From surgery to rehabilitation, the focus was on clear guidance, attentive care, and supporting a comfortable recovery. Post-surgery discomfort was minimal, and the rehabilitation process has progressed steadily with the support of the entire team.

What stands out most is the experience throughout—from the care in the office to the recovery plan that helps patients move forward with confidence.

Now on the road to full recovery, he’s already looking ahead to addressing the other shoulder when the time comes—feeling confident about the process and the care behind it.

🩺 Patient Review: Richard Reynoso

Basketball can be tough on the knees. The sudden stops, quick direction changes, and high-impact movements often place significant stress on the joint—making injuries like ACL and meniscus tears common among players.

Richard Reynoso experienced this firsthand when he injured his knee while playing basketball. After coming to Manhattan Orthopedic Care, an evaluation and MRI confirmed the presence of both a torn ACL and meniscus, requiring surgical repair.

Following surgery, Richard began a structured recovery plan that included dedicated physical therapy to help restore strength, stability, and mobility. With consistent rehabilitation and support from the care team, his recovery progressed steadily.

Six months later, Richard was happy to share his experience—feeling strong, confident, and grateful for the care he received throughout the entire process.

🩺 Patient Story: Grace’s Shoulder Recovery

Grace has been a patient of mine for quite some time, and her journey is a powerful example of perseverance and trust in the recovery process.

She experienced instability in both shoulders, which made everyday activities and athletic movement increasingly difficult. We first explored conservative treatment, including high-quality physical therapy, but despite consistent effort, the instability remained.

In cases like this—when the shoulder capsule is too loose—even when MRI scans do not show clear tears, surgery can help restore stability. Through surgical repair followed by dedicated physical therapy, Grace gradually rebuilt strength and control in both shoulders.

Recovery takes patience and commitment, but today Grace is back doing the activities she loves. Her dedication, combined with the right treatment approach, made all the difference.

🩺 Understanding Knee Dislocation

A dislocated knee is a serious and highly traumatic injury that can affect multiple structures within the joint. When the knee joint itself dislocates, it may damage important tissues such as the ACL, PCL, meniscus, cartilage, and in severe cases even nearby nerves and blood vessels.

However, not all “knee dislocations” are the same. In many cases, the injury actually involves the kneecap (patella) rather than the knee joint itself.

Because of this, proper evaluation is essential. Identifying the exact type of injury, understanding the trauma that caused it, and performing a detailed physical examination and imaging workup helps determine the most appropriate treatment plan.

Early diagnosis and expert orthopedic care are critical to protecting the joint and restoring stability and function.

🩺 Frozen Shoulder: Understanding the 3 Stages

Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) doesn’t happen overnight. It develops gradually and progresses through three distinct stages—each affecting pain and mobility differently.

1️⃣ Freezing Stage
Pain increases, especially with movement, and shoulder mobility begins to decrease. This phase can last several weeks to months as inflammation leads to stiffness.

2️⃣ Frozen Stage
Pain may slightly improve, but stiffness becomes more severe. Everyday tasks like dressing, reaching, or lifting objects can feel extremely limited.

3️⃣ Thawing Stage
Mobility slowly returns and pain continues to decrease. Recovery can take several months, and in some cases up to two years, but most patients regain function with proper care.

Early evaluation and a personalized treatment plan can help manage symptoms and prevent long-term stiffness. If shoulder pain is limiting your daily life, it’s important not to ignore it.

🩺 Recovery Story: Andrew Steer

Andrew Steer shares his experience recovering after ACL surgery following a basketball injury—an injury made less overwhelming by familiarity and trust, having previously been treated for a knee issue at Manhattan Orthopedic Care.

Before surgery, Dr. Tehrany and the team recommended a focused prehab plan to strengthen the muscles around the knee. That preparation played a critical role in what came next.

After surgery using an allograft, Andrew’s recovery progressed quickly. With structured rehab and continued guidance, he regained full range of motion within a month, experienced very little pain, and was able to return to work and daily activities sooner than expected.

This journey highlights how thoughtful planning, expert surgical care, and a team-first approach can significantly improve recovery outcomes—helping patients get back on their feet with confidence.

🩺 Understanding Distal Clavicle Excision

Distal clavicle excision is a minimally invasive shoulder procedure designed to relieve pain at the acromioclavicular (AC) joint.

During surgery, the end portion of the clavicle is carefully removed to decompress the joint. This reduces friction and pressure, helping alleviate pain and restore motion often limited by shoulder arthritis or impingement.

The procedure is performed arthroscopically using a small camera and specialized miniature instruments, allowing for precise treatment through small incisions and supporting a smoother recovery process.

Advanced technique. Targeted relief. Restored shoulder function.

🩺 Ergonomic Workspace Matters

If you spend hours at a desk, your posture can directly impact your spine, shoulders, and overall joint health.

Proper ergonomic setup helps reduce strain, prevent stiffness, and protect your back from long-term discomfort.

✔️ Place your monitor directly in front of you, about an arm’s length away.
✔️ Keep your elbows at a 90-degree angle with your arms resting comfortably.
✔️ Ensure your chair supports the natural curve of your spine.
✔️ Keep your feet flat on the floor (or on a footrest) with knees at 90 degrees.

Small adjustments can make a significant difference in preventing neck pain, back pain, and shoulder tension—especially for those working long hours.

Your workspace should support your body, not strain it.

🩺 Patient Recovery Story

After sustaining a labral tear from workouts and everyday wear and tear, this patient shares how suddenly losing the ability to do normal daily activities felt overwhelming and scary.

From the very beginning, Dr. Tehrany and his entire team focused on clarity, patience, and reassurance—taking the time to explain every step in a way that felt easy to understand and genuinely supportive.

The surgery itself was smooth, with clear communication throughout, and the care didn’t stop there. From post-op follow-ups to recovery and physical therapy, the commitment remained constant.

What stands out most is presence. Knowing the doctor and staff were always there made the entire process feel lighter, more manageable, and far less intimidating—turning a difficult injury into a guided path toward recovery.

🩺 Understanding Arthroscopic Chondroplasty

Arthroscopic chondroplasty is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure designed to treat small areas of damaged cartilage in the knee.

Using small incisions on the sides of the knee, a tiny camera called an arthroscope allows precise visualization of the joint. The damaged cartilage is carefully removed, creating an environment where healthier tissue can form and restore smoother joint function.

Because the procedure is performed arthroscopically, patients benefit from smaller incisions, less disruption to surrounding tissue, and a more efficient recovery process.

Targeted treatment, advanced technology, and a focus on restoring comfort and mobility—helping patients move forward with confidence.
