Shoulder and Elbow Surgery

CONDITIONS TREATED

Your shoulder is the most flexible and mobile joint in your body. It is a ball and socket type joint. In conjunction with your elbow, your shoulder joint allows you to move and rotate your arm to the front, side, above your head, and to the back of your body. The large range of motion, however, makes it susceptible to various injuries like tendonitis, arthritis, etc. Fortunately, the residents of Syracuse and surrounding counties can count on the surgeons of Upstate Orthopedics, as we provide high-quality care for any issues related to the shoulder and elbow joints.
