• Sports Medicine
• Rotator Cuff Tear
• Orthopedic Surgery
• Adhesive Capsulitis of the Shoulder (Frozen Shoulder)

Repair and replace your old approach to shoulder pain! We cover shoulder anatomy, explain the continuum of impingement syndrome (from bursitis to tendonitis to rotator cuff tears to cuff tear arthropathy), how to take a good shoulder history, perform a high-yield physical exam, when to refer, and when to get an MRI. Plus, how to differentiate glenohumeral joint arthritis from frozen shoulder, and how to diagnose AC joint pathology. We’re joined by everyone’s favorite orthopedic surgeon, inventor, and renaissance man, Dr. Ted Parks.
