Nonsurgical treatment options will be recommended first when developing an individualized treatment plan. These methods may include receiving physical therapy, wearing a brace, or taking over-the-counter medication. These nonsurgical approaches can reduce or even eliminate shoulder pain.
If nonoperative care is ineffective or becomes less effective over time, our shoulder surgeons will discuss surgical options with you to help you determine which surgery is right for you. Our surgeons have the expertise and exceptional skills needed to perform the required surgery as well as access to the latest surgical equipment, which helps ensure the best outcome possible.
Our surgeons are prepared to educate you and answer any questions you may have regarding your recommended surgical options.
With years of experience and orthopedic training, our shoulder doctors assess, diagnose, and treat shoulder injuries as well as other conditions that can develop in the shoulder, such as dislocation and bursitis.
Our experts offer a wide array of traditional treatment methods as well as state-of-the-art surgeries, including arthroscopic repair.
Using an arthroscope, or small surgical camera, the surgeon repairs damaged tissue or removes loose fragments in the joint. This allows for better movement and reduced pain. Arthroscopic repair is a minimally invasive surgical technique, meaning it allows for smaller incisions and less tissue damage compared to traditional open surgery.
Bracing and splinting involve using a support or device to protect and stabilize the affected area, often reducing pain and improving function. It can be used as a primary treatment for some conditions, such as ankle sprains. Bracing and splinting may involve custom-made devices or off-the-shelf products, depending on the specific needs of the patient and the type of injury or condition being treated.
