Patient Reviews
What Happens During Your Arthroscopic Hip Consultation
We focus on pinpointing the cause of your hip pain and selecting a treatment that matches your anatomy and activity level.
We Start With a Detailed History
You describe when the pain started, what makes it worse, and the activities you want to return to.
We Examine the Joint and Review Imaging
Dr. Shore tests your hip’s range of motion and reviews your X-rays or MRI with you. He identifies what’s causing the pain and explains how it relates to your symptoms.
We Recommend Treatment That Fits Your Goals
Your options may include physical therapy, injection therapy, or arthroscopic surgery when conservative care hasn’t helped.
We Coordinate Your Recovery
You’ll receive therapy instructions, healing milestones, and a follow-up schedule so you know what to expect at each stage.
Why Consider Hip Arthroscopy in Newport Beach
Hip arthroscopy treats injuries inside the joint without opening it fully. Dr. Shore inserts a camera and specialized instruments through incisions the size of a pencil eraser.
This allows him to repair torn tissue, reshape bone, and remove loose fragments while preserving healthy structures.
The result? Many patients experience less discomfort than with traditional surgery and return to activity within months rather than years.
Hip Conditions Treated With Arthroscopy
Dr. Shore performs arthroscopic procedures for patients throughout Newport Beach and Orange County. Here are the conditions he treats most often:
Treatment Options for Hip Arthroscopy
