Hello Dr. Schwartz & Melissa : )

Your expertise and healing powers where evident from my first visit onward...I immediately felt GREAT and reassured that I made the right decision! I will have no problem recommending Dr. Schwartz M.D. to anyone. Thank-you.

Dear Dr. Schwartz,
You performed shoulder surgery for me in October, 2016, after an Uber driver ran into my car. This was done while you were at Sports Medicine Clinic, NW Hospital.
At the time, you told me that I need to take Clindamycin whenever I have a dental procedure, for life, and I have done that. I have my teeth cleaned 3-4 times a year. I recently had my teeth cleaned and my hygienist said that she didn't think I should need to continue taking this antibiotic now that I am almost 5 years out.
I emailed my primary physician, Dr. Volkman at Shoreline UW and she doesn't think I should still need to take this prescription but wanted me to ask you before stopping.
Please let me know what you think I should do. My shoulder is doing fine, thanks to you, and I sure don't want to do anything to require further surgery.
Thank you so much.....hope you are happy in your office...but you are missed, My best, Tricia McLaughlin

Wondering if someone could tell Dr. Schwartz that the Deltoid muscle lift exercises are definitely helping. It seems to be getting a little stronger already. I can’t lift my arm by itself yet, but, I can easily lower my arm slowly now, and my reach is a little better, too. I was even able to easily reach down to lace and tie my own hiking boots today! 😊. I really appreciate him, so didn’t want to wait to tell him till my next appointment in January. Thank you, Marci
I was put at ease from my 1st visit with Dr. Schwartz. He and Joy, his nurse, and surgery schedulers were very professional and thorough. Most of all, I felt very comfortable on the day of surgery, and afterwards. Dr. Schwartz was very thorough in his explanations. It was so nice to see my surgeon and nurse the morning of surgery smiling at me. Overall a very positive experience!
I’ve had very positive experiences with my treatment and the staff. I’ve been really happy with the results of my shoulder surgery (rotator cuff repair) and am more than happy to make referrals of my friends to see Dr. Schwartz and Joy in clinic! If I had to do it all over again, I no doubt would return to see Dr. Schwartz at The Sports Medicine Clinic.
I had my shoulder replaced with Dr. S and my shoulder has not felt this good in years! I can finally sleep peacefully at night, and move my arm in ways I could have only dreamed off preop! If you have questions ask Dr. S to send you my way, I’ll be more than happy to talk to you about getting you shoulder replaced with him.tions ask Dr. S to send you my way, I’ll be more than happy to talk to you about getting you shoulder replaced with him.
I suffered from multiple shoulder dislocations, and was treated surgically by Dr. Dan Schwartz and was impressed by his thoroughness from the start. He listened very well, and I felt at ease with him from the start. He explained all of the surgical options, and we proceeded with the right option that was right for me. Since surgery, I have been so happy and have strongly recommended him to anyone that will listen! Thanks Dr. Schwartz!
Thank you so much Dr. Daniel Schwartz for your great work! As a Physical Therapist I did a lot of research to find a shoulder surgeon highly qualified to carry out my Mother's reverse shoulder replacement. I appreciated your taking the time to explain the procedure to my parents, and the surgery turned out better than my mom ever expected. Your staff was kind, professional, and competent. It was well worth the drive from Eastern Washington and I will recommend you to all my patients in need of a shoulder surgery.
This is the first online comment that I have ever left for a person, product or service, however I was so impressed by Dr. Schwartz as a human being and a surgeon that I felt compelled to share my story. I had a bone chip in my elbow that intermittently (depending where it floated) rendered my elbow immobile. Despite a fairly lengthy procedure, within two days I had minimal swelling and near full mobility. I should note that I was the last patient of the week on Friday afternoon (most medical advisers would recommend against this time slot), and Dr. Schwartz"s previous operation had been particularly challenging. Yet he was kind, caring, and focused in our pre-operative meeting and he performed flawlessly.
I might also note that I'm a guy who tries to avoid hospitals and doctors whenever possible, in fact I didn't even go to my primary care doctor until months after the ski accident that caused my injury. I would give kudos to Dr. Schwartz and special mention of his nurse, Joy, during my exams and surgery for allaying my fears and phobias and making the whole episode as good as one could ever expect.

Dr. Schwartz and Joy are the best!!
I was wondering if you wanted to do a meet and greet with myself and the therapists at my office sometime. I have heard good things about you from your clients and also from other physicians in the area.
We have a staff of 8 Physical Therapists, and are always looking for good people to add to our referral list. We make frequent referrals to Ortho as we see between 250-300 clients per week.
Feel free to email me back directly, or have your assistant contact my office at (206) 782-5789 if interested.
Best,

Was referred by a past patient of yours. Would like to see how quickly I could get in for a Grade 3 AC tear.

Just a note to say thank you for the thorough and well-composed information about rotator cuff and sleep. It was really the best I could find. Much gratitude.

I have been experiencing should and elbow pain for over a year now. The doctor I have been seeing in Anchorage is just doing cortisone shots for the last several months and things only seem to be getting worse, I would like to arrange an appointment to see Dr. Schwartz.
