The Gobezie Shoulder Institute, led by world-renowned orthopaedic surgeon Dr. Reuben Gobezie, joined NOMS Healthcare (Northern Ohio Medical Specialists) on August 12, 2019. This partnership brings together one of the nation's top shoulder specialists with Northern Ohio's largest and most rapidly growing independent physician collective.
Dr. Gobezie is recognized as one of the country's leading specialists in advanced arthroscopic and open surgical techniques for restoring damaged joints, ligaments, and bones of the shoulder and elbow. As one of the most experienced and highest-volume shoulder surgeons in the United States, Dr. Gobezie brings unmatched expertise to patients throughout Sandusky, Cleveland, Beachwood, and the surrounding Northern Ohio communities.
Why Surgical Volume Matters for Better Outcomes
Medical research consistently demonstrates that surgical volume—the number of procedures a surgeon performs annually—is a strong predictor of better patient outcomes. According to Dr. Gobezie, the more frequently a surgeon and their surgical team perform a procedure, the better the results for patients.
In a typical year, Dr. Gobezie performs more than 400 shoulder replacements and 600 arthroscopic procedures. For comparison, most general orthopaedic surgeons typically perform around 20 shoulder surgeries per year. This exceptional surgical volume translates directly to superior expertise and outcomes for his patients.
