Shoulder & Elbow
These joints are essential for everyday tasks and athletic performance. We provide highly specialized care from leading upper extremity experts.
Does it suddenly feel harder to have a catch with your child or lift the groceries? Are you an athlete sidelined by a shoulder injury—or just someone struggling to sleep because of nagging joint pain?
We understand...
The shoulder and elbow are essential for everything from everyday tasks to athletic performance. But they’re also especially vulnerable to injury due to constant bending, flexing, and repetitive use. And when pain limits your mobility, it can disrupt your routine, performance, and independence. So, prompt, expert care is essential.
Why Choose Bucks County Orthopedics?
Our fellowship-trained upper extremity team is committed to innovation and research that reduces recovery time and promotes mobility and healing for the full scope of shoulder and elbow conditions. With expertise and care, we take the time to understand each patient’s challenges and goals and devise a personalized plan to address pain and restore function.
Discovering and utilizing the latest proven medical advances is part of our mission at Bucks County Orthopedics, and that drive is exemplified through our specialists, such as:
- Dr. Kieran Cody: the first physician at Penn Medicine Doylestown Hospital to perform balloon arthroplasty surgery for a massive rotator cuff tear, a minimally invasive procedure that decreases recovery time, and dramatically improves pain, range of motion, and strength.
- Dr. Andrew Ritting: one of the only surgeons in the region using a new minimally invasive technique that reduces recovery time for shoulder replacement surgery from months to weeks.
