- Hip and Knee Joint Arthritis and Joint Replacement
We provide specialized services for arthritis especially of the hip and knee and other joints in the body. This includes specialized protocols for pre operative as well as post operative rehabilitation regimes. Joint replacement will be carried out when all other forms of conservative methods are exhausted. Please refer to the page on knee arthritis for more details.
- Shoulder and Elbow Problems
With an ageing population as well as with increasing numbers of adults participating in sporting activities, shoulder and elbow problems are increasing in frequency. Common shoulder problems include rotator cuff tendonitis, impingment syndrome of the shoulder to frank shoulder dislocations. Common elbow problems usually include tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) as well as golfers elbow (medial epicondylitis). Please refer to the pages on shoulder and elbow problems for more details (under patient education).
- Arthroscopic Surgery and Sports Surgery
Arthroscopic surgery is basically minimally invasive surgery using key hole access to handle joint problems. This basically entails the use of a camera with small portals to treat cartilage problems as well as ligament problems of the joints. This can be carried out in most joints in the body and is most frequently carried out on the knee. With increasing numbers of younger adults participating in vigorous sporting activities, there is an increasing incidence of injury to the various joints of the body, mainly the shoulder as well as the knee. However, with the advent of arthroscopic surgery, many of these conditions can be handled using an arthroscope which is essentially a day surgical procedure.
- Trauma Surgery
Trauma Surgery in the field of orthopaedics is mainly treatment of fractures. We treat all types of fractures using conservative methods to open reduction and internal fixation when it is required.
- Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a very prevalent health problem in the developed countries of the world. We are able to provide education and counseling on the various modalities of treatment of osteoporosis.
- General Orthopaedics
General orthopaedics, as the name suggests, entails the treatment of very common orthopaedic conditions. Such conditions include trigger fingers, carpal tunnel syndrome, dequervain tendonitis etc. We have tried to make this web site as comprehensive as possible to cover as many common orthopaedic conditions.
We hope that you will take time to browse through the web pages especially on patient education as well as the section on knee arthritis. Please feel free to email us at any time if you have any questions.
