Folks, can anyone please help?

A member of my family (early '50s) is in a lot of pain with what an MRI (Left Shoulder & Cervical Spine) has confirmed as a chronic partical tear of supraspinatus tendon.

In essence she doesn't appear to have confidence in the consultant that she has visited (Munster region) and I wonder can anyone recommend (if necessary please if you could pm me) someone who has a strong track record in dealing with such problems?

Help very much appreciated.

I'm sorry - we can't allow recommending doctors on this forum. Please ask her to talk to her GP.
