We generally don’t pay much attention to shoulders. In fact, we take them for granted. The only time shoulders make the news is when a star pitcher or quarterback has suffered a shoulder injury.

But people who have rotator cuff tears, arthritis or other conditions know how painful and debilitating shoulder problems can be.

This website is for people who suffer from a shoulder disorder and are considering surgery. Its job is to give you some information about the shoulder, as well as the technology and techniques behind the surgery.

It’s also to remind you that you’re not alone — over 14 million people a year visit doctors for shoulder problems — and that shoulder surgery has come a long way in the last decade or so, treating conditions today that were considered inoperable not so very long ago.
