"Dr. Razzano is an extremely talented and skilled surgeon. Diagnosed with injury of extensor muscle and tendon at forearm level, as well as a traumatic rupture of the (right) Radial collateral ligament, Dr. Razzano performed my surgery with great success. The radial collateral repair included the use of 4 anchors. While the surgery can take up to 1 year for full recovery, I was playing golf within 16 weeks, and I am now back to playing basketball at week 21."
