Why Mount Carmel Trusts Dr. Kamineni
A Specialist's Approach to Shoulder and Elbow Care
Dr. Kamineni is double fellowship-trained, having studied shoulder surgery in Switzerland under Dr. Gerber and elbow surgery at the Mayo Clinic, and he's board certified in both the United States and England. That's a depth of training most general orthopaedic practices simply don't have.
- Focused expertise. Shoulder and elbow conditions are all Dr. Kamineni treats, from common rotator cuff tears to complex revision surgery.
- Same-day surgery. Many procedures are done as day-case surgery, so you recover at home instead of in a hospital bed.
- Advanced technology. Dr. Kamineni uses Enovis implant systems, including bone-preserving stemless shoulder designs, built around your own anatomy.
- A personal approach. You work directly with Dr. Kamineni, not a rotating team of hospital staff.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Rotator cuff tears, both partial and complete, are one of the most common conditions Dr. Kamineni treats. Treatment ranges from targeted injections and physical therapy for smaller tears to arthroscopic repair for larger ones, with the right option depending on the size and location of the tear and your activity level.
Yes. Tennis elbow and golfer's elbow are treated with a staged approach: activity changes and bracing first, targeted injections if needed, and surgery reserved for cases that don't improve with conservative care. Most patients recover without ever needing an operation.
An elbow specialist has focused, fellowship-level training in the elbow's smaller and more complex joint mechanics, rather than the broader, less specialized background of a general orthopaedic doctor. Dr. Kamineni completed a dedicated elbow fellowship at the Mayo Clinic, on top of his shoulder fellowship, which means Mount Carmel patients get a level of elbow expertise that's uncommon even among orthopaedic specialists.
