Diagnosis and Treatment Options
The clinic uses precise imaging to assess the shoulder joint. This diagnosis guides the choice of surgical repair. Available diagnostic procedures include:
- MRI of one area for detailed soft tissue imaging.
- CT scan for detailed bone structure assessment.
- Diagnostic shoulder arthroscopy for direct internal visualization.
Treatment focuses on repairing the damaged structures that cause recurring dislocations. The main surgical options are:
- Arthroscopic Bankart Repair: This surgery fixes torn ligaments in the front of the shoulder. It is a key procedure for preventing future dislocations.
- Arthroscopic SLAP Repair: This technique repairs tears in the superior labrum. It is often performed alongside a Bankart repair.
Both are minimally invasive arthroscopic surgeries. They require only one night of hospitalization. This approach leads to less pain and faster recovery.

The $23,000 surgical package is designed for international patients. It combines the Bankart and SLAP repairs into one procedure. The package includes several key services:
- Surgery with arthroscopic technique.
- One-night hospital stay.
- VIP airport and hospital transfers.
