Biceps Tendon Tear (at the Shoulder)

Tendons are strong bands of tissue that connect muscle to bone. With this injury, one of the tendons anchoring your biceps muscle is torn. It may be torn partially or completely. Because the biceps is attached with two separate tendons, you may find that you can still use your biceps muscle even if one tendon is completely torn.

Patient Reviews

Angela G. Gauthier, P.A.-C.

Angela has been taking care of me since my surgery with Dr. Feinstein. She has eased my fears and concerns and guided me through recovery. My recovery is slow, but I’m encouraged with our next steps in this ongoing recovery.

Christopher D. Mudd, M.D.

I have been here twice and only have good things to say regarding the Doctor and staff like your new computer system that patients fill out. I will be back this year for my cortisone shot in my knee. I am trying to put off knee replacement till I retire.

Katie E. House, F.N.P.-C.

I must say, from start to finish, I was very impressed with this practice. Everything was like a finely oiled machine from when I checked in until I checked out. Katie and the rest of the staff were very impressive.

Andrea Hyde, A.G.P.C.N.P.-B.C.

I waited only a few minutes. The x-rays were taken quickly, and Andrea came in shortly after. The experience was very professional, and the staff was concerned for me. Overall, it was a very positive appointment.

Angela G. Gauthier, P.A.-C.

Angela is always so pleasant. She makes me feel comfortable and cared about. I never have to wait long and can usually get an appointment within a few days. Her injections are spot-on and give me relief within 24 to 48 hours. I’m so grateful.
