The person in this video is a patient of Texas Orthobiologics and has signed a media release permitting us to publish this account. No payment, discount, free or reduced-cost treatment, or other benefit was given in exchange for it. Individual results vary, and one patient’s experience is not a prediction of anyone else’s.
This video features a patient testimonial shared by Dr. Don Buford regarding a recovery following a rotator cuff repair.
Key Highlights:
- Procedure: The patient underwent an arthroscopic rotator cuff repair that was augmented with a Regeneten patch—an absorbable bovine collagen patch used to help support tissue healing.
- Timeline & Recovery: For the first six weeks following surgery, the patient performed at-home exercises independently. Formal physical therapy began at the six-week mark.
- Results: The patient experienced an exceptionally smooth recovery, achieving nearly full range of motion by the very first day of formal physical therapy. At the three-month follow-up milestone, he demonstrates excellent, unrestricted shoulder mobility in all directions, and an in-office ultrasound confirmed that the repair looked great.
Every patient is different, and a video is not a promise of the same result. If you want to know whether an orthobiologic or surgical option fits your own injury, that starts with an exam and imaging — not a video.
