Known for his meticulous surgical techniques and evidence-based approach, Dr. Arismendi provides specialized care for patients suffering from a range of musculoskeletal issues affecting the upper limbs.

Treatments and Specialties

Dr. Arismendi's practice encompasses a broad scope of orthopedic interventions, with particular emphasis on minimally invasive and joint-preserving techniques. Below is a detailed breakdown of his services:

Arthroscopy (Knee, Hip, Shoulder, Elbow & Ankle)

Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that uses a tiny camera and instruments to diagnose and treat joint problems. Dr. Arismendi performs arthroscopy on multiple joints, including:

  • Knee: Meniscal repairs, ligament reconstructions, and cartilage preservation.
  • Hip: Labral tears, impingement corrections, and loose body removals.
  • Shoulder: Rotator cuff repairs, instability management, and debridement.
  • Elbow: Removal of loose bodies, treatment of stiffness, and ligament issues.
  • Ankle: Ankle impingement, cartilage injuries, and ligament stabilization.

His skill in arthroscopic techniques allows for quicker recovery, reduced scarring, and minimal post-operative complications.

Shoulder and Elbow Arthroplasty

Arthroplasty, or joint replacement surgery, is often the last resort for patients with severe arthritis or joint destruction. Dr. Arismendi excels in both shoulder and elbow arthroplasty, using cutting-edge prosthetic implants and precision-guided techniques. He ensures joint mobility is restored while minimizing post-operative pain and maximizing long-term function.

Shoulder and Knee Arthroplasty Reconstruction

For patients requiring more complex revision surgeries or reconstructions, Dr. Arismendi offers highly specialized care. Whether the issue is implant failure, instability, or joint degradation, his reconstruction procedures aim to restore biomechanical alignment and function. His expertise in managing both shoulder and knee cases speaks to his versatility and deep understanding of joint mechanics.

Shoulder Arthroscopy

As a recognized subspecialist in shoulder conditions, shoulder arthroscopy is a cornerstone of Dr. Arismendi’s practice. Commonly treated conditions include:

  • Rotator cuff tears
  • Labral tears
  • Impingement syndrome
  • Biceps tendon pathology

His approach to shoulder arthroscopy focuses on preserving as much of the patient’s natural joint structure as possible while eliminating sources of pain and dysfunction.

Shoulder Calcific Tendonitis Surgery

Calcific tendonitis involves the deposition of calcium within the tendons of the rotator cuff. When conservative treatments fail, Dr. Arismendi performs surgical decompression and removal of the calcium deposits to restore mobility and reduce inflammation.

This condition can be extremely painful and limiting, and his patients often report rapid and dramatic improvements in shoulder function after surgery.

Shoulder Instability Surgery

Recurring shoulder dislocations or subluxations often require surgical intervention to stabilize the joint. Dr. Arismendi offers procedures such as:

  • Bankart repair (for labrum tears)
  • Latarjet procedure (for bone loss)
  • Capsular shift (for hyperlaxity)

His treatments are tailored based on patient anatomy and level of activity—especially for athletes who require high-performance outcomes.

Shoulder Replacement (Atroscopic)

Dr. Arismendi is known for his proficiency in arthroscopic shoulder replacement, a technically demanding procedure that offers many advantages over traditional open techniques. By using small incisions and specialized instruments, he can perform joint replacement with less trauma to surrounding tissues. This leads to:

  • Reduced post-operative pain
  • Faster rehabilitation
  • Lower risk of complications

This technique is particularly beneficial for younger or more active patients who wish to return to their daily activities quickly and efficiently.

Shoulder Surgery and Reconstruction

From rotator cuff tears to traumatic injuries and degenerative diseases, Dr. Arismendi provides comprehensive shoulder reconstruction services. These may include:

  • Tendon transfers
  • Muscle reattachments
  • Complex fracture management

His reconstructive surgeries aim to restore strength, mobility, and joint stability, often preventing the need for full joint replacement.

Dr. Arismendi’s subspecialty in shoulder and elbow surgery places him among an elite group of orthopedic surgeons who dedicate their careers to mastering upper limb pathology. His extensive training and experience allow him to perform surgeries with high precision and superior outcomes.

Whether treating athletes, older adults with degenerative conditions, or trauma patients, his subspecialty knowledge ensures targeted, efficient care tailored to each case.
