Robotic Shoulder Replacement — Exclusively at Bingham

Mako SmartRobotics™ for shoulder supports a personalized plan based on your anatomy.

When to consider an evaluation

It may be time to consider shoulder replacement when pain and limited mobility keep you from the activities you once enjoyed. An evaluation helps confirm the cause and whether shoulder replacement is appropriate.

Common reasons patients reach out

Chronic or worsening shoulder pain
Pain that disrupts sleep or daily activity
Loss of range of motion or strength
Symptoms not improving with therapy, injections, or medication

How we guide next steps

We start with an orthopedic evaluation and imaging. If shoulder replacement is indicated, we’ll review your options, explain the plan, and outline what to expect before and after surgery.
