Shoulder Surgery

Our orthopedic specialists will recommend surgery only after the possibility of using minimally invasive treatments has been ruled out. However, if your condition is severe, delaying shoulder surgery can increase your chance of making the damage worse. Our specialists will recommend the most appropriate and timely treatment for your needs.

Nonsurgical Treatments

Depending on the severity of your pain, Dr. Seade may suggest several non-invasive options before recommending surgery.

RICE

Over-the-Counter Medications

Physical Therapy

Steroid Injections

RICE

Rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE), is always a good starting point for joint pain. Avoid using the affected shoulder for an extended period of time to see if your pain subsides.

Over-the-Counter Medications

Certain prescribed medications might be recommended in addition to RICE to manage your shoulder pain. You should only take these medications as directed by your physician and let them know if they are not helping your pain.

Physical Therapy

A customized treatment plan developed by one of our physical therapists can help to strengthen the muscles around the joint and can often alleviate the pain.

Steroid Injections

Steroid injections are a minimally invasive way to treat shoulder pain. Steroids can help reduce inflammation and alleviate pain in the joint.

Had a reverse shoulder implant by Dr. Seade. Incredible! Back to work in 2 weeks, doing everything within a year. I would not go to anyone else. Amazing staff.

Patient

The staff is exceptional. I could not ask for better doctors. They have taken care of knee replacements bilaterally and both of my shoulders.

I have had over a dozen sports surgeries but no doctor has come close to being as knowledgeable, responsive and kind as Dr Seade. He has completed two shoulder surgeries for me and they have been such an amazing success. The entire team... I have had over a dozen sports surgeries but no doctor has come close to being as knowledgeable, responsive and kind as Dr Seade. He has completed two shoulder surgeries for me and they have been such an amazing success. The entire team from his PA to the medical assistant and the front office are amazing.

Patient

Dr. Seade was the BEST!! Also his PA is awesome! I had total reverse replacement on my right (dominate) shoulder. I had a setback but Dr. Seade fixed it quick.

Patient

Dr. Seade was always patient and treated my concerns as legitimate. I was in a rollover in 2020 and had shoulder pain and limited ROM, and after we tried conservative management, Dr. Seade went in and took care of the problem... Dr. Seade was always patient and treated my concerns as legitimate. I was in a rollover in 2020 and had shoulder pain and limited ROM, and after we tried conservative management, Dr. Seade went in and took care of the problem surgically. I have been recovering well so far and I can’t thank Dr. Seade and his team enough for their care over the last year. My career requires me to have use of my shoulders and I didn’t know what I was going to do if the pain or ROM never got better. Thank you, Dr. Seade and co. Thank you x like 1,000.

Patient

Dr. Seade helped me with a shoulder injury. I highly recommend them!
