Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair Dr Michael Maguire Shoulder Surgeon Gold Coast (Maguire Upper Limb)

Dr Michael Maguire is a Shoulder Surgeon at the Gold Coast who performs arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Dr Maguire is an Orthopaedic Surgeon with subspecialty upper limb fellowship training. His surgical practice is exclusively shoulder and upper limb surgery. Dr Maguire also performs elbow arthroscopy, wrist arthroscopy and endoscopic carpal tunnel release surgery. Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair has many advantages over "open" rotator cuff surgery including less post-operative pain and morbidity. Usually only 3 or 4 tiny puncture wounds measuring about one cm each are required, thus minimizing scarring. The advantages of keyhole surgery for rotator cuff repair make it an attractive option compared to traditional open surgery. Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair can often be performed as a day case obviating the need to stay over-night in hospital.
