Services
Hip Surgery
Hip surgery addresses conditions like arthritis, fractures, and deformities through procedures such as total hip replacement and hip resurfacing. Our surgeons use minimally invasive techniques to reduce recovery time and improve mobility. Patients benefit from tailored rehabilitation plans to restore function and alleviate pain, ensuring a return to active lifestyles.
Knee Surgery
Knee surgery covers ACL reconstruction, meniscus repair, and total knee replacement for injuries and degenerative conditions. Advanced techniques like robotic-assisted surgery enhance precision and outcomes. Our focus on post-operative rehabilitation ensures patients regain strength and mobility efficiently, supported by evidence-based protocols.
Shoulder Surgery
Shoulder surgery treats rotator cuff tears, dislocations, and arthritis through arthroscopic and open procedures. We specialise in joint preservation and replacement to restore function. Personalised care plans integrate physical therapy to maximise recovery, enabling patients to resume daily and athletic activities with reduced pain.
Limb Reconstruction
Limb reconstruction corrects deformities and alignment issues using osteotomies and external fixation. This service benefits patients with trauma, congenital conditions, or post-traumatic deformities. Our approach combines surgical precision with biomechanical analysis to improve mobility and prevent future complications like arthritis.
ACL Reconstruction
ACL reconstruction restores knee stability after ligament tears using autografts or allografts. Our surgeons employ anatomical techniques to mimic natural knee mechanics. Post-operative rehabilitation, including strength and balance training, ensures athletes and active individuals return to pre-injury performance levels safely.
