Folks--if you are not happy with one doctors opinion seek out other specialists for opinions
Dr Coach V Chris--get off the Marshall coat tails--he is not the type of doctor the kid needs to see, at least not my kid or any of my players.
Your background is QUITE LIMITED HERE---just because you coach your young sons, follow The Great DR. Marshall and write papers does not make you an authority that can recommend what to do other than see a good sports/ortho guy
CHOICE-- arm problems--do you get examined to Dr James Andrews or Dr. Mike Marshall? To me they are two different type of Doctors---with one you read his papers with the other you are in the real actual world of medicine--
I ask you to make the call for your own son(s) if God forbid you had to.
In closing I would request that u you stop misleading people--I do not believe that you are qualified to offer the so called info you are offering--
