• Loose bodies (any joint)
• Synovitis (any joint)
• Osteochondral lesions (ankle, knee)
• Frozen shoulder
• Tennis elbow
• Ankle impingement
• Hip impingement
• Elbow stiffness or contractures

Before the Procedure:

• Pre-op evaluation: Includes a physical exam, imaging (MRI or X-rays), and a review of medications.
• Instructions: You may be asked to stop eating or drinking 6–12 hours before surgery.
• Medications: Some medications may need to be paused (e.g., blood thinners).
• Anesthesia: Most arthroscopies are done under general or regional anesthesia.

After the Procedure:

• Recovery room: You’ll be monitored briefly before going home (most are outpatient).
• Pain & swelling: Ice and medication help manage this.
• Wound care: You’ll have small incisions covered with bandages. Keep them clean and dry.
• Activity restrictions: You may need crutches, a sling, or a brace.
• Physical therapy: Often begins within days to restore strength and mobility.
• Follow-up: You’ll see your surgeon to monitor healing and remove stitches if needed.

Treatments:

• Surgical reconstruction with bone grafts, plates, screws, or prosthetic implants
• Soft tissue repair around joints
• Postoperative pain control and infection prevention
• Intensive physical therapy to regain strength and range of motion
• Long-term follow-up for joint function and hardware integrity

Conditions Treated:

• Shoulder osteoarthritis
• Post-traumatic arthritis
• Proximal humerus fracture

Before the Procedure:

Before surgery, you’ll have a thorough medical evaluation that includes a review of your health history, a physical exam, and imaging, such as X-rays or CT scans. These scans are used to create a 3D model of your shoulder, allowing your surgeon to plan the procedure with high precision. In some cases, pre-surgery physical therapy (prehab) may be recommended to improve shoulder strength and mobility in preparation for recovery..

After the Procedure:

After the procedure, our care team will monitor you as you wake up from anesthesia and manage any discomfort with pain medications. Most patients stay in the hospital for one to two days, but some may return home the same day, depending on individual circumstances. Expect to wear a sling for a few weeks and undergo physical therapy to help restore movement and gradually build strength. Follow-up appointments will be scheduled to track your healing and implant position. While most people return to light daily activities within a few weeks, full recovery typically takes three to six months.

Conditions Treated:

• Fractures
• Torn ligaments or tendons
• Joint injuries
• Soft tissue injuries

Before the Procedure:

• Preoperative evaluation including physical exam, imaging, and medical history review
• Discussion of risks, benefits, and expected outcomes with your surgeon
• Possible fasting and medication adjustments
• Anesthesia consultation and preparation

After the Procedure:

• Small incisions with less pain and scarring than open surgery
• Initial immobilization or use of a brace/sling depending on injury
• Early pain management with medications
• Physical therapy to restore strength and mobility starting soon after surgery
• Follow-up visits to monitor healing and remove stitches or hardware if needed

Treatments:

• Surgical placement of fixation devices (plates, screws, rods, pins)
• Immobilization with casts or braces after surgery
• Pain management and infection prevention
• Early rehabilitation to restore function
• Follow-up imaging to monitor healing progress
