We offer a range of effective shoulder surgery options for those battling shoulder pain. These include: 

Shoulder replacement surgery

Shoulder replacement surgery can treat damage to the inside of your joint, which might be caused by severe arthritis or injury. Shoulder replacement surgery involves removing the top part of your humerus (upper arm bone), which forms the ball of your shoulder joint, and replacing it with an artificial component (also known as a prosthesis). In some cases, if the damage to your shoulder is more extensive, your Orthopaedic Surgeon might also replace the socket of your joint with a prosthesis.
  

Rotator cuff repair surgery

Your rotator cuff consists of a network of muscles and tendons that hold your shoulder in place. Repetitive activities or an injury might cause a tear in this network. Rotator cuff damage can be painful, but it is very treatable through rotator cuff repair surgery. During this procedure, your Orthopaedic Consultant will repair or replace any injured or damaged tendons and muscles with a graft tendon from another part of the body. 

Shoulder arthroscopy surgery

A shoulder arthroscopy, which is a form of keyhole surgery, allows your doctor to see inside your joint. This is achieved by inserting a camera through small incisions made in your shoulder. This camera is connected to a video monitor, and your surgeon can diagnose and even treat certain problems using this technique.  

Shoulder manipulation for frozen shoulder

Frozen shoulder causes severe stiffness and reduced mobility in your shoulder. Shoulder manipulation is a non-invasive procedure during which your Orthopaedic Surgeon will gently manipulate (move) your frozen shoulder through a variety of motions to improve mobility and reduce discomfort.
