Dr. Kevin Setter, MD

I have a literally been ushered into the cubicle and waited close to two hours to see him. By the time you walk out of the cubicle two hours and 15 minutes went by. It’s just too long to ask of someone. Friends and family don’t want to bring me to him anymore. I finally get the surgery. The repair doesn’t hold. A year and a half later, I have it done all over again then I’m not stitched up properly. The gap was too big in between the stitches and the skin separated. Such a thing is a conduit to infection. I think he knows how to operate on people , but the office is difficult to deal with just large incisions and once not closed properly. They do not return portal messages. So overall, it’s a mixed bag. I can’t figure it out. He either sees six or eight people an hour.

Dr Setter was referred to me in 2006 for a torn rotator cuff. He repaired it and everything is great. In November he told me I needed a total replacement on the opposite shoulder. He was great again and he never had to cut any muscles or ligaments. I am still doing PT but thanks to his skills, I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Highly recommend him and his wonderful staff. Jim H. Camillus NY

He is awesome!!! Knew excatly what was wrong with me within minutes of talking to me!

Dr. Setter has been my shoulder doctor since 2011. I had a badly injured shoulder as well as a frozen shoulder. Right from the first time I met Dr. Setter, I knew that I was finally in the right place AND in the hands of the right doctor. Dr. Setter is WELL versed in his practice and profession and was able to put my real concerns to rest. He is compassionate and he took the time to explain to me how the surgery would be done. He kept his word and ensured that my pain was well controlled.

He was very honest with me. Told me what the problem was and that it was my decision of I could live with it or not. Had the surgery and i am only 6 weeks post op and doing great. This is my third shoulder replacement, first one was a partial and the wrong size was used, the second one came apart. I highly recommend Dr. Setter, he took his time and answered any questions I had. He never made me feel like any of my questions were foolish or unimportant.

Dr. Setter fixed my left shoulder after another doctor operated on it and kept telling me that there was nothing wrong with my shoulder and that the problem was my neck.

I broke my shoulder and arm in March of 2015 and besides having it take three days for Dr. Setter to fit me into his schedule because he is in such high demand, I am very happy with the excellent care he has provided me over the past 10 months.
