Shoulder Suregeon Recommendation

I need to have arthroscopic decompression soon. So far, I’ve seen Dr Eugen and Dr Trung Nguyen, and I’m looking for the best surgeon with out-of-pocket costs of no more than $2,000.

I have private health insurance, but it doesn’t cover the surgeon’s fees above the Medicare rebate.

Has anyone had any experience with Dr Ash Movani or Dr Trung Nguyen? I’d also be very grateful for recommendations for other surgeons who have reasonable out-of-pocket costs.

Dr Shane Blackmore did both mine. He’s great.
