Midwest Orthopaedics at Rush specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of a wide spectrum of shoulder injuries and abnormalities. Our physicians and care specialists combine clinical orthopaedic surgery, rehabilitative sports medicine, physical and occupational therapy, and clinical science research to provide the most advanced treatment for our patients.

The shoulder surgical procedures performed by our physicians treat conditions ranging from common problems such as impingement to complex reconstructions for arthritis, fractures, instability, and rotator cuff tears. The progress in surgical science has advanced greatly over the past few years, especially in the treatment of shoulder injuries. Shoulder injuries that were once considered permanent can today be effectively treated.
