A member asked:
Is tommy john surgery usually successful?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: "usually" being the keyword - several sources report that tommy john surgery is successful is over 85% of cases, although the recovery/rehab time is extensive (the reason that baseball pitchers tend to miss an entire season).
