In NY the statute of limitations for medical malpractice is 30 months. That can be extended if there had been treatment for the condition in the meantime. In order to prove a medical malpractice case, a claimant must prove a failure to conform to accepted practice, resulting in an injury. A bad result is not enough, and if it is a "judgment call" by the doctor, there is no malpractice, even if the doctor made the wrong call. Your wife will need to get copies of all of her medical records and have a doctor review them; if he/she is willing to testify that your previous doctor failed to conform to accepted practice, then there is a case

Can I sue for malpractice because my shoulder replacement surgery had prolonged complications?

No, you cannot sue unless some orthopedist diagnoses your condition and you find an orthopedic surgeon who is willing to testify that your shoulder is like it is because the original orthopedic surgeon deviated from the standard of care, causing the problems you are experiencing. Florida even has a statute that says a bad result cannot be used as evidence of malpractice. Don't think about a lawsuit, think about finding a doctor who can fix the problem you have.
