How We Care for You
Dr. Shore stays involved from the first exam through the final rehab milestone.
We Listen to You
Every appointment begins by mapping out symptoms, daily routines, and what a good outcome would actually mean.

Dr. Shore reads each X-ray and MRI aloud, points out the damaged tissue, and explains how it connects to the pain.
We Match Treatment to the Diagnosis
Options range from arthroscopy and labral repair to anterior replacement and tendon reconstruction.
We Stay Connected Through Recovery
Don’t Let Hip Pain Disrupt Daily Life
Hip pain spreads into everything. It cuts a run short, makes bending to tie a shoe a problem, and wakes a person up the moment they roll onto that side.
The groin aches after a long sit, and most patients quietly drop their workouts. Dr. Shore finds the root cause and treats it directly.
Hip Conditions Treated in Costa Mesa
Dr. Shore handles the full spectrum of hip and sports-related problems.
Treatments Available
Anterior Total Hip Replacement
A muscle-sparing approach through the front of the hip that speeds the return to normal activity.
Periacetabular Osteotomy (PAO)
Repositions a shallow socket in younger patients, restoring coverage and slowing arthritis.
Arthroscopic Hip Surgery
Clears bone spurs and mends labral tears through tiny incisions, sparing healthy tissue around the joint.
Partial Hip Replacement
Replaces only the damaged portion of the joint and leaves the rest untouched.
Hip Preservation Surgery
Joint-saving procedures like PAO and arthroscopy that delay the day a full replacement becomes necessary.
Reconstructive Hip Surgery
Structural and soft-tissue corrections for complicated hip cases. Revision hip replacements fall outside this category.
Non-Surgical Treatments
Physical therapy, anti-inflammatory and PRP injections, activity changes, and weight management.
Sports Injury Management
Treatment for hip injuries includes running, surfing, cycling, or competing.
Post-Operative Rehabilitation Guidance
A staged recovery plan keyed to each patient’s return-to-activity goals.
