Shoulder Arthroscopy

Shoulder arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat shoulder conditions like rotator cuff tears, impingement, and labral injuries. Through small incisions, a camera and specialized tools are used to access the joint, helping reduce pain, accelerate recovery, and improve shoulder function and mobility.

Total Shoulder Replacement

Total shoulder replacement surgery can help relieve pain and restore mobility for those suffering from severe shoulder arthritis or injury. This procedure involves replacing damaged parts of the shoulder joint with artificial components, allowing for smoother movement and improved quality of life.

Dr. Cheung's attentiveness to the patient and "bedside manner" is very impressive. She is very pleasant doctor who acknowledged my comments, and answered my related questions. Too bad she doesn't operate on knees! :(

Dr. Cheung was very nice, a good listener, and a calm presence, which is good for me, since surgery is an option that I wish didn't have to take. We talked over the history of my shoulder problem and the MRI results, and easily came to the conclusion that arthroscopic debridement was the best ...
