Orthopedic Services
(1) ARTHRITIS MANAGEMENT:
We have particular interest in arthritis management.
Naturally not all arthritic patients needs joint replacement.
There is a new technique both conservative and surgical to implement, which will help arthritic patients e.g. chondropreservative medications, surgical procedures e.g. osteotomy, A.C.T as explained earlier, partial joint replacement and interpositional devices.
(2) JOINT REPLACEMENT:
Knee, hip, shoulder, and elbow replacement.
The above techniques can be done through MIS (minimal invasive surgery) in the appropriate patient.
Also recent advances in computer navigation systems is applied to our surgery.
Partial joint replacement including interpositional devices are also performed.
We are happy to be designated center of excellence by Conformis Medical Company, who are based in Boston for computer designed and built individually for the particular patient.
