Orthopedic Procedures
We Perform

Joint Replacement (Arthroplasty)

We offer full and partial joint replacements for the hip, knee, elbow and shoulder. Implants are selected based on your age, lifestyle, and bone condition. Recovery starts the same day, with movement encouraged early to reduce stiffness.

Spine Surgery & Care

Our spine team treats mild to severe scoliosis using spinal fusion, state of the art instrumentation, and follow-up. Non-surgical cases are evaluated for conservative support. Pediatric and adult patients accepted.

Fracture Repair & Trauma Surgery

Internal fixation, realignment, and emergency orthopedic care for displaced fractures and complicated injuries.

Ligament & Tendon Reconstruction

Includes ACL repair, rotator cuff repair, and Achilles tendon surgery, using grafts or synthetic supports.

Minimally Invasive Procedures

Whenever possible, our surgeons use keyhole techniques to reduce incision size, blood loss, and downtime.

Diagnostic Services & Pre-Surgical Planning

All orthopedic diagnostics are performed in-house, including:

  • EOS - ultra low dose 2D & 3D imaging
  • Digital X-ray
  • MRI - 1,5 T and 3 T with AI support
  • Low dose CT scans
  • Bone density testing Gait & alignment studies
  • Pre-op anesthesia assessments
