Patient Testimonials

Replaced both shoulders. Excellent job. Very decent man and well respected in the community of professionals and patients.

Dr. Woolf is methodical, reserved and extremely thorough. He was not quick to cut and agreed to my shoulder replacement after gaining a thorough understanding of my oncology history and the condition of my shoulder. He is confident and quiet. If you're looking for chatty, he's not it. He's an extremely talented surgeon. If you want your hand held, you have to ask lots and lots of questions. He's friendly when responding. He just doesn't offer a lot of information unless you keep asking.

Separating my shoulder in HS Football led, as an adult, to severe arthritis and 2 surgeries (rotator cuff & labrum). The 1st was botched, the 2nd held me together until rigors of being athletic and a distance cyclist required more. Desiring not just a fix, but outcome allowing me to perform athletically, I did careful research. I could not be happier with my decision to trust my surgery to Dr Shane Woolf at MUSC who specializes in shoulders, sports medicine and fixing botched jobs. Dr Woolf performed a shoulder replacement to eliminate pain and a 2nd surgery to clean abrasions improving range. It has been a long road, but MUSC and Dr Woolf have been there every step with guidance, encouragement, caring and most of all, high competence and results. If you are of similar need, I strongly recommend Dr Woolf. Take my word after 4 surgeries. I am training for Triathlons now and will likely cycle USA coast to coast again soon. Thank you Doc !!!

Very pleased with pre / post surgery diagnosis, evaluation, information, and care.

Extremely knowledgeable and spent time reviewing my charts and explaining my options clearly! Made me feel most comfortable about my condition and gave me options I did not get from another Dr I had seen. Excellent!!!

I tore my ACL, MCL and PCL. Dr. Woolf took his time and answered all of my questions. He never acted too busy and made sure I was comfortable with my injury, as much as I could be anyway. We remained hopeful that only my ACL would have to be repaired. A 2 hour surgery was expected, but thankfully Dr. Woolf took his time and checked all of my ligaments and ended up repairing the ACL, MCL and PCL. It turned into a 6-7 hour surgery and I am thankful for that! I am healing quicker then expected, and I know I will be back to doing stupid things as soon he clears me to do so. I am very fortunate to be a patient of Dr. Woolf and thank him for his expertise!

ive only see Dr. Woolf once, but I was impressed with everything. I'm getting started on PT (again) and look forward to my next visit. I have knee pain as well and hope he can help me with that too. Everything about this first experience was positive.

I am happy and feel lucky i found this doctor he provided all the things i needed to get active again at first i was not sure i would ever be able to move my arm like i can it is very hard at first but he lets you heal and then gets you off meds to be your self again and puts you on physical therapy the damage to my shoulder was the worst you can have in my case i feel lucky take it day by day do what they say and your range of motion will get regular again thank you docter wolf ps. next time you see me you will be happy how much use i have with my shoulder doug

I found Dr.Ohlson to be compassionate & considerate. He answered all my questions and suggested many treatment options. He took his time to explain all the treatments in laymen terms. I felt extremely well cared for and that I was NOT just a number. The physical therapy being next door was very convenient. The staff in his office was extremely accommodating with schedule requests. I have finished my treatments now and am amazed that I am pain free!!!!
Well done to Dr. Ohlson and his caring staff. I'm an extremely satisfied patient. Previously, Dr. Ohlson repaired my ankle in a major complicated surgery. I had brilliant results. His knowledge and professionalism is superior and unparalleled in our area.

I came to Dr Ohlson with arthritis pain in both knees. He suggested shock wave therapy and it has been life changing. Pain is almost completely gone after four of five treatments. Dr Ohlson is so personable and takes the time to explain things well. Thank you so much Dr Ohlson!

My teenaged athlete has seen Dr. Ohlson for two separate injuries. Dr. Ohlson is professional and personable, which comforted my son and me. He took plenty of time evaluating my son, explaining the situation, and answering all my questions without me feeling rushed. The office is equipped with some impressive equipment that helped my son feel better quickly. The physical therapy staff also works closely with the doctors.

Very
professional and loves his work. very knowledgeable

I received A+treatment from Dr Ohlson. He explained options and provided excellent medical care. My issue has resolved and I’m grateful for the medical treatment I received.

I visited Dr. Ohlson with sever elbow pain. It was pain I was trying to manage myself with braces, ointments and over the counter medicine. Nothing was working until seeing Dr. Ohlson and using shockwave therapy. He was confident this would help and he was right! Elbow is feeling much better and Dr. Ohlson’s knowledge and professionalism was second to none. Thank you for all of your help!
