Shoulder Operation - AC Joint

[Russ_H]

Morning all,

My shoulders have taken a hammering throwing myself down slopes in my youth - mountain bikes and snowboarding and now I'm paying for it!
After putting off the operation on my right shoulder for years (mainly cause the recovery fking hurts) I'm going to man up and get it sorted. Left shoulder was done 10 years ago.

I'm looking at a Subacromial decompression and AC joint excision - basically shaving bone and trimming ligaments to create room for everything to move nicely.

Can anyone recommend a good consultant in the Midlands area, preferably around Warwick, Coventry, Leicester. Reason is I'm looking for a second opinion if the Op is the best way forward. My left shoulder has been fine for 10 years but lately has started to click, feel loose and ache - was wondering if it's related to the original Op.

Cheers

Droitwich, but this guy bolted my collar bone back together a few years ago. He does all the shoulders at my rugby club.
