His aim is to get you the best possible outcome, taking into account your lifestyle, general health and family situation. Before surgery, Dr McLean will guide you through the process and address any concerns you have.

If you have a sports injury or other shoulder condition, it is best to act quickly. Delaying treatment can cause permanent damage and reduce the potential for a full recovery.
