The short-stem shoulder replacement is a newer, bone preserving stem, used in anatomic and reverse shoulder replacements. Studies have been performed, showing lower rates of fracture if a fall were to occur after surgery, as well as easier revision surgery, if necessary. It may also has better wear characteristics around the bone, meaning there are less changes to your native bone with this replacement. Additionally, this stem is convertible between anatomic and reverse shoulder replacement. Dr. Kilian trained with one of the designers of this implant system.
- Dr. Killian is the surgeon I've selected to do my surgery when the time is right. He was informative, helpful, and assured me that he has trained with the best surgeons in his field, I found him enthusiastic and eager to help me with his talents and skill, to get me to a pain free and productive level of life again.

- At 67 years old ... I had to have a Shoulder Replacement ... I can't say enough about my surgery / recovery ... It was surprisingly a fast recovery. I wish I would have done this sooner. I don't know why I was afraid and waited so long to have this done. I would totally recommend Dr. Kilian, he was excellent through the whole process. 10 out of 10. Thank you Dr. Kilian, and staff.
- Age 77, had right shoulder rotator cuff surgery. Dr. Kilian explained the operation thoroughly and the recovery. Surgery went better than expected, I now have full range of motion and will be starting strength therapy shortly. I recommend Dr. Kilian for anyone that needs shoulder surgery.
- Having Dr. Killian do my reverse shoulder replacement was one of the best decisions I've made. One I wish I has made sooner. He is a kind, thoughtful person who gave me the reassurance I needed. It is six weeks since surgery and I am pain free and well on my way with range of motion.
