Shoulder Surgery
Your shoulder is the most mobile joint in your body. Its job is to move your shoulder forward and backward, allowing your arm to turn in a circular motion. Many muscles, tendons and ligaments are involved in supporting and stabilising your shoulder so you can move your arm.
As your local Adelaide shoulder surgeon, Dr Nimon specialises in shoulder reconstructions and arthroscopy (minimally invasive surgery) for a range of conditions including sports injuries, rotator cuff injuries and severe dislocations.
