Treatment options for shoulder ligament tears
The clinic offers several paths for recovery depending on the severity of the ligament damage. Doctors emphasize customized plans to match the patient's physical needs and lifestyle.
- Arthroscopic labral repair. This minimally invasive surgery treats SLAP lesions and joint instability. The surgeon uses an arthroscope to fix the labrum through small incisions, which reduces recovery time.
- Ligament reconstruction surgery. For severe tears or chronic instability, the medical team performs full reconstruction. This procedure helps rebuild damaged ligaments to restore strength to the shoulder joint.
- Non-surgical treatment. This conservative approach works for less severe injuries. It includes physical therapy, injection therapy, and specific exercise programs to manage pain and inflammation without surgery.
Patient care and specialized features
Leadheal Hospital serves patients from North America, Asia, Australia, and the CIS region. The facility focuses on precise diagnosis to determine if a patient needs surgery or can recover through outpatient therapy. The Joint Quick Care system streamlines the process from the first visit to the start of rehabilitation. This approach helps patients avoid long wait times for specialized orthopedic procedures.

After giving birth, my back started to hurt from watching idols, so I went for my first treatment.
I was treated by Director Hwang Sang-won, and his explanations were concise and easy to understand. He spoke to me so clearly about my concerns about breastfeeding, so I received treatment without any worries.
I hope to continue visiting him in the future.

I developed a cyst on my foot and had surgery. Dr. Joo Sung-hoon performed a thorough surgical procedure on the complex, spread cysts, and they're healing beautifully. I was so scared during the surgery, but the nurses and doctors were so kind and helpful, so everything went smoothly. The nurses were also incredibly kind. I'm so happy to be able to wear sneakers :)

I called my mother to check up on her, and she said she was having surgery.
She said she was having a minor surgery at Eunpyeong Lead Hill Hospital, where I've been going for a while.
So, I visited her with my daughter this afternoon, and the surgery went well.
Director Hwang Sang-won performed the surgery himself, and the results were good.
I checked in with her and left the hospital.
This seems like a friendly and skilled hospital.

I didn't have much confidence in my local hospital, so I ended up receiving treatment there. However, it reaffirmed the importance of choice. The friendly and proactive treatment method made me feel like half of my illness had already been cured, making my hospital stay feel easier.
