Rotator Cuff Surgery Patient Swims Alcatraz
Most shoulder injuries can be repaired without surgery. At The Stone Clinic, we approach each injury individually to create the best possible treatment plan, enabling patients to return to the activities they love, fitter, faster, and stronger than before their injury.
Shoulder injuries come in many forms, like torn rotator cuffs, dislocated shoulders where the labrum has been torn, AC joint dislocation, bursitis, and arthritis. We diagnose each of these conditions differently and create a customized treatment plan based on a physical exam, x-ray, and MRI.
We have found that many shoulder injuries can now be repaired without surgery, treating them, instead, with injections of lubrication and growth factors combined with a comprehensive physical therapy program.
