Great doctor. Pleasant, but professional, objective, and to the point. Dr Konchwalla is the ONLY senior doctor I've seen in Dubai who manages his time well and respects yours. If his appointment is at 3.45pm, he will see you at that time. Never late!

Best orthopaedic doctor ever. After reaching more than 7 doctors in different locations, he was the only one to know how to manage my case. Unlike other orthopaedics, he doesn't jump to invasive procedures before trying safer treatment options.

About Shoulder Surgery in Dubai

What is Shoulder Arthroscopy?

Shoulder arthroscopy in Dubai is a minimally invasive keyhole procedure that allows Dr. Ashfaq to diagnose and treat a wide range of shoulder problems — rotator cuff tears, SLAP tears, shoulder impingement, calcific tendinitis, and frozen shoulder — through tiny incisions with less pain and faster recovery than open surgery.

Rotator Cuff Repair in Dubai

Rotator cuff repair in Dubai is one of the most common shoulder procedures. Dr. Ashfaq uses all-arthroscopic techniques to reattach torn tendons to the bone — eliminating pain, restoring strength, and enabling a return to sport. Recovery typically takes 3–6 months with a structured physiotherapy programme.

Frozen Shoulder Treatment in Dubai

Frozen shoulder treatment in Dubai by Dr. Ashfaq begins with structured physiotherapy and targeted injections. When conservative treatment fails, arthroscopic capsular release restores full range of motion — typically within 3–4 months of surgery.

Shoulder Surgery Cost in Dubai

Cost varies by procedure type (arthroscopy, rotator cuff repair, or shoulder replacement). Dr. Ashfaq works with all major UAE insurance providers including Daman, AXA, MetLife and Cigna. Book a free consultation for a personalised assessment and cost estimate.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

When is Shoulder Surgery Needed?
+
Shoulder surgery is recommended when persistent shoulder pain, weakness, or instability does not improve with conservative treatments such as physiotherapy, rest, or injections — typically after 3–6 months of non-surgical care.
What are the risks of Shoulder Surgery?
+
The risks are minimal and include infection, stiffness, or nerve irritation. Dr. Ashfaq's minimally invasive arthroscopic techniques significantly reduce surgical trauma and recovery time.
Can delaying shoulder surgery cause problems?
+
Yes — delaying rotator cuff repair in particular can allow tears to enlarge, making reconstruction more complex or sometimes impossible. Early intervention consistently leads to better outcomes.
How long does shoulder surgery take?
+
Shoulder arthroscopy typically takes 45–90 minutes. Most patients go home the same day. Total shoulder replacement takes 1.5–2 hours with a 1–2 night hospital stay.
Can you return to full activity after shoulder surgery?
+
Absolutely. Most patients return to daily activities within 4–6 weeks and to sports such as tennis, cricket, and golf within 3–6 months following shoulder surgery. Dr. Ashfaq's dedicated rehabilitation protocols are tailored for active patients.
What is shoulder arthroscopy used for?
+
Shoulder arthroscopy is a minimally invasive keyhole procedure used to treat rotator cuff tears, SLAP tears, shoulder impingement, frozen shoulder, calcific tendinitis, shoulder instability, and acromioclavicular (ACJ) joint problems — with less pain and faster recovery than open surgery.
