Ortho | Rotator Cuff Tear Repair

A rotator cuff tear involves damage to one or more tendons in the shoulder, often causing significant pain and limiting arm movement. Rotator cuff tear repair is one of the most frequently performed orthopedic procedures.

Dr. Aaron Schwartz works with patients to identify a rotator cuff tear repair treatment best suited for their injury and lifestyle. The FiberTak SpeedBridge is one of the advanced rotator cuff surgery techniques he performs to address this issue.

The FiberTak SpeedBridge system is among the next generation of advanced rotator cuff surgery techniques. This minimally invasive method gives Dr. Schwartz a larger surface area to stabilize and reconstruct the injured shoulder and utilizes state-of-the-art orthopedic technology to ensure a durable and efficient repair.
