Dr Brotherton did surgery on my left shoulder a few years ago. Now I'm pain free. Now I'm going back to have him work on my right shoulder, and there's no one else I'd rather have do it.
Dr. Brotherton is great at letting you know what's going on and what needs to be done to resolve the issue. Not only a really great Dr. but also great bedside manor.

Reviews
Dr Brotherton is pleasant and explained things to me and helped me to deside what the best treatment would be for me
I felt like I mattered and was comfortable at the office. There no nonsense and system was relief to me. I felt like something finally going to work, and it has. Thanks
Thorough. Provided An Rx that has so far has proven to be effective
Dr Brotherton was great, even though my MRI had confusion based on my symptoms he didn’t ignore my symptoms and instead still gave me a cortisone shot as a tester to see if that helps! He was very helpful and determined to see what’s wrong with my knee.
Dr Brotherton listens well and answers questions thoroughly. I felt well taken care of and I’m glad he’ll be in charge of shoulder care as we move forward in treatment.
100 percent excellent
Dr Brotherton explained my diagnosis in detail and answered all my questions regarding the procedure . I look forward to the followup care that he will provide .
Always a pleasant experience

Knowledgeable ' efficient and compassionate
Dr. Brotherton was prompt and efficient,Medical staff are very nice. Cortisone shot has not helped yet but hopefully will soon
On time appointments. Works for me. Office personnel and x-ray department very efficient and social. Of course, Dr.Brotherton was very precise, concise and easy to follow.
Very friendly physician and spoke directly to me. Took time with me.
I was referred by a friend & he was so nice & understanding! Explained everything & answered any questions I had.
Not smiley feely, but he seems to definitely know what he is doing.
Didn’t ask me about any symptoms. Was very short & unsympathetic. Offered a steroid injection and when I declined he was done.
Smooth operation. Very efficient.
Dr. Brotherton is great at letting you know what's going on and what needs to be done to resolve the issue. Not only a really great Dr. but also great bedside manor.
My medical experience with Palm Harbor Orthopedics is the Best l Have Experienced in my 85 years! Dr Brotherton and staff have the knowledge and expertise to assist you.
Except for the computer, not working to fill out all the paperwork it was a great experience

Everyone in the office are courteous, professional & will always keep the patient informed of any changes. Dr Brotherton is thorough in explaining procedures, PT therapy, surgery’s & xrays so that the patient has a better understanding of their health issues.
Dr B covers all the bases! I like that!
No complaints
I highly recommend this group. I am presently under the care of Dr Brotherton and I am extremely grateful for his knowledge and care in dealing with my upcoming surgery. In the past I was under the care of Dr James for a hip replacement and he too was knowledgeable and caring. This is by far the best orthopedic group in the area.i highly recommend them.
Dr Brotherton is an excellent surgeon. I appreciate his diagnosis and correction of my shoulder injury. I highly recommend him and Orthopedic Specialists.
