Getting You and your shoulder back in the game

Shoulder Pain in MotionAs the most versatile joint in the human body, our shoulder joint provides us with a tremendous amount of flexibility. However, this range of motion can lead to shoulder pain or discomfort.

In most cases, pain in the shoulder can be the result of one of four main causes:

Inflammation


Instability


Arthritis


Fracture

Dr. Cushing is an excellent doctor!

“He is really nice and talks in a way that makes it easy to follow. He has an outstanding professional nature, and is a great doctor.”

Glenn Flake

Pre-op visit for rotator cuff issues exceeded expectations. Cushing took the time to explain and communicate well.

“My postoperative physical therapy and home therapy program was perfect. I am now 11 months postop and don’t even think about my right shoulder anymore. I referred Dr. Cushing to many people since my surgery who have had same reactions to his quality of care and outcomes.”
