SLAP Repair in Chandler, AZ Expert Shoulder Care That Gets You Back to Life

If you’re struggling with persistent shoulder pain or limited movement, you might be dealing with a SLAP (Superior Labrum Anterior and Posterior) tear. This injury affects the cartilage ring around your shoulder socket, a crucial structure that keeps your shoulder stable and allows smooth, pain-free motion.

Whether you’re an athlete making overhead throws or someone who’s faced trauma or repetitive strain, a SLAP tear  can hold you back from living fully. At AZ Orthopedic, we specialize in precise SLAP repair  surgery designed to relieve your pain, restore shoulder stability, and help you regain your active lifestyle. If you’re tired of living with shoulder pain, clicking, or limited movement, don’t wait. Schedule your consultation now and take the first confident step toward lasting relief.

Choosing SLAP repair  at AZ Orthopedic means:

Here’s how we repair your shoulder and get you on the road to recovery:

Step 1: Thorough Evaluation

We confirm your diagnosis with a detailed exam and imaging.

Step 2: Arthroscopic Surgery

Small incisions and a tiny camera allow precise repair.

Step 3: Labrum Reattachment

Step 4: Post-Surgery Care

Incisions are closed, and your arm is supported in a sling.
