This department offers coverage for all kinds of traumatic and non-traumatic orthopaedic problems – be it surgery for fracture fixation, spinal procedures for disc problems, or total joint replacement operations. Modern equipment are available for arthroscopic surgery and the entire range of arthroscopic procedures for the knee, shoulder and ankle is offered. The surgeons also have a special interest in sports-related injuries that include the arthroscopic repair of ligaments such as the anterior cruciate ligament of the knee.

In addition to hips and knees, the department’s total joint replacement programme has expanded to include the shoulder joints with excellent results.

The treatment of spinal and disc problems is a special feature of the department. Microdiscectomies – the removal or repair of intervertebral discs through tiny incisions – are performed on a regular basis.

Qualified and experienced physiotherapists provide adjunct physical therapy. The department is equipped with diathermy, ultrasonic, interferential and laser devices to manage orthopaedic as well as medical conditions. It also houses a fully fitted gymnasium.
