Arthroscopy & Sports Medicine Surgeon I try to fit the treatment to my patient, not the patient to my treatment.

This is a Shared Decision Making Philosophy that I strongly believe is best for all patients. As an Orthopaedic Sports Medicine and Arthroscopic Surgery specialist, I can provide my extensive knowledge and experience about your injury or problem. However, I often know very little about your personal priorities, fears, goals, etc.. Consequently, only by working together, are we likely to meet your

healthcare goals. Visit here for more about me, my patient care philosophy and my experience: http://www.jeffreybergmd.com/about-jeffrey-h-berg-md/

Achilles Tendon Tears: Two Boneheads Video Series

If you are over 20 and you run or jump, you are at risk for an Achilles Tendon tear. Traditionally these were always repaired in active people.

Partial Thickness Rotator Cuff Tears: Two Boneheads Video Series

Partial thickness rotator cuff tears are a unique type of rotator cuff tear. With this type of tear, the tendon is not completely torn from the bone, only partially. This can often be a normal finding as we age and therefore is not always even a source of your pain. As a result, it doesn't always require surgery. This can be a confusing topic for many. Hopefully this Two Boneheads video will help you understand the subject better. Watch Dr. Howard Luks and me explain this in more detail. Please let us know if you have any thoughts or questions.

The Two Boneheads: Help Me! I have Pain Everywhere!

This is a touchy one. More and more people come to me with multiple weight-bearing areas that are very painful. These usually are overuse problems. Frequently either due to poor pre-activity conditioning or excessive body weight. Often it is a combination of both...leading to a "perfect storm". It's not that this is not a problem. It's not that you don't have pain...It's just that I, or anyone, doesn't have a quick fix. Unfortunately as obesity becomes more and more prevalent and all of us tend to become more and more sedentary, this problem is becoming much more common. So What to do if this is you? Well for stars, watch this latest Two Boneheads installment in which Dr. Howard Luks and I discuss this very sensitive but important topic.

The Two Boneheads: Stiffness After Rotator Cuff Surgery

The rehabilitation after ROTATOR CUFF SURGERY tries to "thread the needle" between doing too little and doing too much. Too little therapy and activity increases the chance of the repaired tendon healing but at the expense of shoulder stiffness. Whereas too much activity postoperatively may result in more failures of the repair but with a lesser chance of stiffness. Watch The Two Boneheads discuss this topic and reach out if you have any questions.

The Two Boneheads: NSAIDs

Degenerative Rotator Cuff Tears

Degenerative rotator cuff tears are extremely common as we age. They differ from those that occur with trauma. These particular tears occur simply from "wear and tear" over your lifetime. Fortunately most of these don't require surgery. Usually with nonoperative treatments, you can return turn to pain-free full function. Watch Dr. Howard Luks and I discuss degenerative rotator cuff tears in this installment of our TWO BONEHEADS video series.

When To Stop Running

When you are injured, should you stop running or exercising? That's the topic of this installment of The Two Boneheads video series. In short, stopping is usually a bad idea. Yep, you read that right...A bad idea. Better to reduce your activities to a lesser, pain-free level or choose an alternative activity that is pain-free as well. This allows you to heal, prevents excessive de-conditioning and enables you to continue gaining all the mental benefits of exercise. So if your injured, keep moving and keep exercising...But do it wisely. For more about this topic, watch Dr. Howard Luks and I discuss this topic in the accompanying video.

ACL Graft Choices

ACL reconstructions require a graft in place of the injured ACL. There are several options for the graft. Listen to the Two Boneheads discuss which graft to consider and which to avoid.

Early Single Sport Specialization

Single sports specialization is all the rage but science shows us that if done too early, this leads to more injuries, worse athletic development and a lower chance of playing your sport at the next level. So why are we doing it? Watch the Two Boneheads discuss this important issue.

Less Is More

In Healthcare, sometimes less is more. Less doctor's visits, less testing, less treatment...and less complications. Listen to the Two Boneheads discuss this concept.
