Move pain-free again with trusted surgical care in Kuwait
Shoulder pain shouldn't control your life. When simple activities like reaching overhead, getting dressed, or lifting everyday items become difficult, it's time to consider shoulder replacement surgery. Dr. Fawzy Issa has helped thousands of patients return to the activities they love with 40 years of surgical experience you can trust.
Simple answers to your important questions
Shoulder replacement helps when the smooth cartilage in your shoulder joint wears away, usually from arthritis or injury. This causes bone to rub against bone, creating pain, stiffness, and weakness that doesn't get better with other treatments.
During surgery, Dr. Fawzy removes the damaged parts of your shoulder joint and replaces them with smooth metal and plastic parts. These new parts work just like your natural shoulder, but without the pain.
Total Shoulder Replacement: Replaces both the ball and socket when arthritis affects the whole joint
Reverse Shoulder Replacement: Special technique when rotator cuff muscles are severely damaged
Partial Shoulder Replacement: Replaces only the ball when the socket is still healthy
All options give excellent results when done by an experienced surgeon.
We start with simple treatments and only suggest surgery when it's the best choice
We always start with treatments that don't require surgery. This includes physical therapy to strengthen your shoulder, medications to reduce pain and swelling, injections to lubricate the joint, and lifestyle changes to protect your shoulder. Many patients feel much better with these treatments and don't need surgery.
If surgery might help you, Dr. Fawzy will examine your shoulder carefully, look at X-rays to see the damage, talk with you about your goals, explain exactly what surgery involves, and answer all your questions.
Dr. Fawzy uses proven surgical techniques he's perfected over 40 years. His experience with the most difficult cases means your surgery gets the same expert care, even if your case is routine. He specializes in advanced shoulder procedures including complex reconstructions.
Most patients go home the same day or next day, start gentle movement within days, return to normal activities in 8-16 weeks, and enjoy years of pain-free movement.
