Information
Orthopaedic Surgery
Orthopaedic Surgery is a branch of medicine which treats patients with problems in their muscles, bones, joints and other related structures, which require surgical intervention. This is carried out by an Orthopaedic surgeon and is considered a specialist in the field of orthopedics.
An Orthopedic consultant is the surgeon that usually diagnoses and treats patients with bone and muscle diseases, such as those caused by infections and degenerative diseases.
Most often, an orthopedic consultant performs surgery in patients with musculoskeletal injuries acquired from sporting accidents, vehicular accidents and falls. Congenital defects are also commonly repaired by an orthopedic expert specialising in children's musculoskeletal problems. Here are some of our services listed below
