    About the shoulder

    Did you know what most people call the shoulder is actually several joints working together? Combined with tendons and muscles, these joints allow the wide range of motion we count on in the arm. Unfortunately, it's this wide range of motion that can cause us problems, including inflammation, tears, instability, arthritis and fractures.

    Shoulder replacement surgery

    Shoulder joint replacement surgery is a life-changing experience for most patients. After a relatively short period of time, you’ll be able to re-engage in the active lifestyle that’s important to you.

    What is a rotator cuff?

    The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that keep the head of the upper arm bone (the humerus) firmly within the shoulder socket. 

    Rotator cuff injuries are quite common and symptoms can range from a dull ache and limited mobility to arm weakness and disturbed sleep. If you're experiencing any pain in your shoulder, it's best to have an orthopedic physician evaluate you quickly.
