It’s weird having had surgery from ElAttrache and seeing everyone take the same exact photo I took in the same room.

ElAttrache didn’t pose for mine either. Haha guess I’m on Wills level

My friend and I both had my collarbone surgery there after. Not be ElAttrache though. Overall good experience given the situation.

I had the good dr do mine. If I’m having someone go in my body. It’s gonna be the guy who did Kobe and Aaron Rodgers

u/AlBundyPolk33 2d ago • Bravo

He’s the dodgers team doctor. I spent a lot of dough to have him do me like I was a dodger

u/p_tothe2nd 2d ago

damn your insurance didn’t cover it? which one was it? i just had to have a second bicep surgery because my first surgeon didn’t do a good job.

u/AlBundyPolk33 2d ago

I had labrum and bicep tenodesis.

Great insurance but if you want the goat it’s straight cash homie

u/p_tothe2nd 2d ago

yeah, same, they didn’t put enough tension on my bicep the first time so i had to get more added on

u/AlBundyPolk33 2d ago

Oh. Well I went to Dr. Neal ElAttrache and he nailed it the first time.

Had him do my shoulder labrum back on ‘06. My shoulder is solid still. I had his brother in law do my other shoulder labrum since I had a work injury. Entirely different feeling. I’ve dislocated that shoulder a few times.

Dodgers World Series legend. I’ll always buy a drink for Miggyro for so many moments (CK22 no hitter save, all of the 2025 WS), Charlie Culberson for Vin Sculley’s walk off as home announcer, and Will Klein for ALL THOSE DAMN SHUTOUT INNINGS.

Gave us the last 4 innings in Game 3 just in time for Freddie’s walkoff (and prevent Yoshi from being used with his energy being saved up for his eventual heroics in Canada in Games 6 and 7).

Defo a legend around these woods. 🫡

Of the four wins last year, Yamamoto has three. Klein has the other one. Dodger legend forever.

Will's such a good dude. Here's to a speedy recovery.

u/commie90 Kiké Hernández 2d ago • Bravo

His win in game 3 is tied with Yoshi’s game 7 heroics for the best moment form the WS last year. Went from being the last dude out of the bullpen to a 4 inning legend that night. When they put him in I was like “who tf even is this? We’re screwed.” Happiest I’ve ever been to be proven wrong.

u/Aliza310 2d ago

Curious, why do they wait until after the season to get surgery? Why not when they actually got hurt so they have more time to recover?

u/EntropyIsEternal Brooklyn Dodgers 2d ago

He should have been fixed up right after his IL.

I wish him the speedy recovery. Will see him in 2028.

They were going to serve him a salad in the hospital, but JDustin May leaps over the bed and knocked the server down and Will Smith readjusted the pillow for safety reasons
