I tore something in my right shoulder while climbing 2 weeks ago and am looking for a doctor who understands what I am trying to accomplish. I.E. be climbing and active again as soon as possible with long term sustainable cure. I currently have received acupuncture and massage on it which seems to be helping but there is still nerve pain, dull aches, shooting pain when moved to far. I felt searing heat and pain when it initially happened and it has been "hanging" off my body a bit. I look forward to finding the right Doctor hopefully in the Denver area, although I am willing to travel for the right person. Thanks everyone for your help.

If you're into chiropractors, Jeremy Rodgers is my go-to for healing any sports related ailments:

Steadman Hawkins clinic in south Denver is top-notch. I had my 5th knee surgery back in December and I'm currently going through PT there as well. I'm not sure how the shoulder doctors are, but if they're as good as the knee docs I would no doubt go to them. They were recommended to me by a friend and can't say enough about them.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
