Expert Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgery with Dr. Ben DuBois

If you're suffering from persistent shoulder pain, stiffness, or limited mobility due to an injury or degenerative condition, arthroscopic shoulder surgery may be the solution. Dr. Ben DuBois, a highly experienced orthopedic surgeon in San Diego, specializes in minimally invasive shoulder surgery, helping patients restore function and relieve pain with advanced arthroscopic techniques.

What is Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgery?

Arthroscopic shoulder surgery is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat a wide range of shoulder conditions. Using a small camera called an arthroscope, Dr. DuBois can visualize and repair damaged tissues inside the shoulder joint through tiny incisions. This technique reduces surgical trauma, promotes faster recovery, and minimizes scarring compared to traditional open surgery.

Common conditions treated with shoulder arthroscopy include rotator cuff tears, shoulder impingement syndrome, labral tears (SLAP tears), frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis), shoulder instability and dislocations, and arthritis-related damage. These conditions can cause significant pain and limit mobility, making surgical intervention necessary when conservative treatments fail.

Benefits of Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgery

Patients undergoing arthroscopic shoulder surgery in San Diego with Dr. Ben DuBois often experience smaller incisions, less scarring, and a faster recovery process. The minimally invasive approach reduces pain and lowers the risk of complications compared to open surgery. Many patients regain improved shoulder function and mobility, allowing them to return to daily activities with greater ease.

Am I a Candidate for Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgery?

You may be a candidate for minimally invasive shoulder surgery if you have persistent shoulder pain that does not improve with nonsurgical treatments, suffer from a rotator cuff tear, labral tear, or shoulder instability, or experience limited mobility due to joint damage or impingement. If shoulder discomfort is interfering with your ability to perform daily activities, Dr. Ben DuBois will conduct a thorough evaluation, including imaging tests and physical assessments, to determine the most effective treatment plan for you.
