Rotator Cuff Repair

Rotator cuff repair is a surgical procedure to restore torn tendons in the shoulder, often caused by injury or degeneration. Using minimally invasive techniques, surgeons reattach the tendon to the bone, reducing pain and restoring strength and mobility. Recovery typically includes physical therapy to regain full shoulder function over time.

ACL Reconstruction

ACL reconstruction is a surgical procedure to replace a torn anterior cruciate ligament in the knee, commonly injured during sports. Surgeons use a graft, often from the patient’s own tendon, to restore stability and function. Rehabilitation is essential post-surgery to regain strength, mobility, and safely return to athletic activities.
