Don’t Let Hip Pain Disrupt Your Routine
Ongoing hip pain can interfere with the way you walk, limit mobility, and make even routine tasks frustrating. Many patients also struggle with sleep and exercise when their hips are stiff or unstable.
Dr. Shore helps patients find relief with targeted and modern treatments.
Our Patient-Centered Approach
Every patient deserves a careful evaluation and a clear plan. Here is what to expect:
Conditions We Treat
Hip conditions often come with unique challenges. Dr. Shore treats the full range of hip disorders with both non-surgical and surgical care.
Avascular Necrosis
Femoroacetabular Impingement (FAI)
A mismatch between the hip ball and socket pinches cartilage or labrum, often causing groin pain and stiffness.
Hip Labral Tears
A torn labrum, the rim of cartilage around the socket, creates pain, clicking, or instability during movement.
Hip Dysplasia
A shallow hip socket leads to poor joint coverage, causing instability and often early arthritis if untreated.
Hip Osteoarthritis
Cartilage breakdown causes stiffness, pain, and reduced mobility, often limiting walking distance or climbing stairs.
Gluteus Medius and Minimus Tears
Damage to outer hip tendons creates pain and weakness, especially during walking, standing, or lying on the side.
Hamstring Injuries
Sports or trauma can tear hamstring tendons, leading to sudden pain, bruising, and loss of leg strength.
Piriformis Syndrome
Tightness in the piriformis muscle compresses the sciatic nerve, creating buttock pain that may radiate down the leg.
