Shoulder Care
Shoulders are not singular joints, but rather a complex arrangement of bones, cartilage, ligaments, muscles, and tendons. When one of these connecting pieces is injured, it will result in a limited range of motion. If you’re having a hard time bending, flexing, reaching, or rotating your arms, you may have a shoulder condition that needs attention.
Whether caused by sports, work, or the general wear and tear of life, our physicians specializing in the shoulder will help you identify the severity of your pain, injury, or condition through clinical evaluations and imaging as necessary. We will then recommend the treatment plan that’s best for you and we will help you carry out that treatment plan through procedures, referrals, and follow-ups. Contact us with questions or schedule an appointment online. Our offices can be reached at 603-431-1121 (Portsmouth, NH) and 207-363-3490 (York, ME).
