Can anyone recommend an orthopedic surgeon who specializes in shoulders?
My DH had surgery on his shoulder many many years ago and it's now causing him a fir bit of pain. This has been going on for a while and he eased it with stretching and exercise and then physio but that's not working anymore and apparently the surgery he had is now outdated and can be fixed but it needs someone who really specializes in shoulders.
Anyone??
Many thanks.

I have mentioned Dr.John Bouillon on this site previously, he is excellent, he is Johns Hopkins trained, so has excellent credentials, and operates out if the American Hospital but carries out his consultations in Dubai Healthcare City at California Chiropractic and Sports Medicine Center 04 429 8292. My husband had surgery with him a few years previously and after visiting a few other Surgeons we were so happy we decided to use Dr. Bouillon,he's a first class surgeon. I have just tried to get an appointment with Dr Bouillon and thought I'd update this as have been told he is no longer in Dubai. Back to the drawing board!

Orthopedic surgeons at Emirates Hospital are fantastic. I had emergency knee surgery there and they did a great job. Never had a problem since. http://www.emirateshospital.ae/our-doctors/dubai-doctors/orthopedics.html Appletiser...would you mind telling me which doctor did your knee surgery? Thanks.

Yeah, thanks. Was just having a look at City and American. I guess they would each have someone good. And Welcare probably. Thanks again.

Thanks Appletiser. Good to know. Was just hoping I could find someone who specializes in shoulders. Of course, they may well have someone who does so will check it out. In the meantime, if anyone else has a recommendation... much appreciated. ETA: Just looked at the link and yes, indeed they do have a shoulder specialist!! Thanks again! <em>edited by m_king on 26/05/2012</em>
