ORTHOPAEDICS
Joint Replacement
Joint replacement is a surgical procedure that involves replacing a damaged or diseased joint with an artificial implant to relieve pain and restore function. Commonly performed on the hip, knee, and shoulder, this procedure is often recommended for individuals suffering from conditions such as arthritis, severe joint pain, or joint deformities.
The surgery typically involves removing the damaged joint surfaces and implanting a prosthesis made of metal, plastic, or ceramic materials. Recovery may include physical therapy to regain strength and mobility, with many patients experiencing significant improvement in their quality of life post-surgery. Our dedicated orthopedic team is committed to providing comprehensive care and support throughout the joint replacement process, ensuring optimal outcomes for each patient.
Arthroscopy (Pinhole Surgery)
Arthroscopy, often referred to as “pinhole surgery,” is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat joint problems. During arthroscopy, a small camera called an arthroscope is inserted into the joint through tiny incisions. This allows surgeons to view the interior of the joint on a monitor and perform various procedures, such as repairing torn ligaments, removing loose cartilage, or addressing joint inflammation.
Commonly performed on the knee, shoulder, hip, and ankle, arthroscopy offers several benefits, including reduced pain, shorter recovery times, and minimal scarring compared to traditional open surgery. Patients often return to normal activities more quickly. Our skilled orthopedic team is dedicated to providing comprehensive care and support throughout the arthroscopic process, ensuring optimal outcomes for each patient.
Trauma & Accident Care
Trauma and accident care involves the immediate assessment and treatment of injuries resulting from accidents, falls, or other traumatic events. Our specialized trauma team is equipped to handle a wide range of injuries, from fractures and lacerations to head injuries and internal trauma.
Care typically begins with a thorough evaluation to prioritize treatment based on the severity of injuries. Advanced imaging techniques and emergency interventions may be utilized to stabilize patients and address life-threatening conditions.
Our multidisciplinary approach ensures that each patient receives comprehensive care, including surgical interventions, rehabilitation, and follow-up support, aimed at promoting recovery and restoring quality of life. Our dedicated team is committed to providing compassionate and effective care for trauma patients at every stage of their recovery.
Fracture Management
Fracture management involves the assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation of broken bones to ensure proper healing and restore function. Initial evaluation typically includes physical examinations and imaging studies, such as X-rays, to determine the type and severity of the fracture.
Treatment options vary based on the fracture type and location and may include:
1. **Conservative Management**: Using splints, casts, or braces to immobilize the affected area for healing.
2. **Surgical Intervention**: In cases of severe fractures, surgery may be necessary to realign the bones and secure them with plates, screws, or rods.
Rehabilitation through physical therapy is often recommended to regain strength and mobility. Our dedicated orthopedic team provides comprehensive care and support throughout the fracture management process, ensuring optimal recovery and return to normal activities.
Hand Surgery
Hand surgery encompasses a range of procedures aimed at treating conditions affecting the hand, wrist, and forearm. This specialty addresses issues such as fractures, tendon injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome, arthritis, and congenital deformities.
Surgeries may include tendon repairs, joint reconstruction, nerve decompression, and the treatment of complex fractures. Minimally invasive techniques are often utilized to reduce recovery time and minimize scarring.
Postoperative care is essential, often involving rehabilitation to restore function and strength. Our skilled hand surgery team is dedicated to providing personalized care, ensuring optimal outcomes, and helping patients regain full use of their hands for everyday activities.
