Before surgery, Sara Maxam’s shoulder pain became unbearable, especially after a long day of physical activity. The pain even reached a point where her art hobbies caused her severe discomfort. After trying non-surgical options, Maxam was referred to Dr. Stadelmaier who performed a reverse shoulder replacement. She was so pleased with the results; she had her other shoulder done eight months later. According to Maxam, she couldn’t have asked for a better overall experience. Most of all she’s grateful to be back doing the things she enjoys again. Read her full story at mymichigan.org/maxam.
