Treatments
What I treat
Knee arthroscopy
Meniscus repair and cartilage care through two small cuts.
ACL reconstruction
Ligament surgery and a staged plan back to sport.
Shoulder surgery
Rotator cuff repair and treatment for a shoulder that slips out.
Joint replacement
Partial and total knee replacement when other treatments no longer help.
My approach
Surgery only when it is the right answer
Many knee and shoulder problems settle with the right exercises, a change in training or an injection. When surgery is the better choice, I explain why, what recovery looks like week by week, and what it will cost, before you decide.
- Physiotherapy plan first
- Written cost estimate
- Recovery plan week by week
- Same surgeon at every visit
