What We
Offer

Fractured Bone Nailing / Plating

These surgical methods are employed to stabilize broken bones. Intramedullary nailing involves inserting a metal rod into the marrow cavity of the bone, while plating uses metal plates and screws to hold the bone fragments together. Both techniques aim to restore proper alignment and facilitate healing.​

Total Hip Replacement (THR)

Total Hip Replacement involves removing the damaged ball and socket of the hip joint and replacing them with artificial components. This procedure is typically performed to alleviate pain and improve function in patients with hip arthritis or fractures.​

Total Knee Replacement (TKR)

Total Knee Replacement entails resurfacing the knee joint by removing damaged cartilage and bone, and replacing them with prosthetic components. This surgery aims to relieve pain and restore function in patients with severe knee arthritis or joint damage.​

Amputation

Amputation is the surgical removal of a limb or part of a limb, often due to severe injury, infection, or disease. The procedure aims to remove the affected tissue to prevent further complications and improve the patient's quality of life.​

Fasciotomy

Fasciotomy is a surgical intervention to relieve pressure within muscle compartments, typically due to conditions like compartment syndrome. Incisions are made in the fascia to allow for expansion and reduce pressure, thereby restoring normal blood flow and preventing tissue damage.​he procedure aims to remove the affected tissue to prevent further complications and improve the patient's quality of life.​

Spinal Fixation

Spinal fixation is a surgical procedure that stabilizes the spine by connecting two or more vertebrae using hardware like rods, screws, or plates. This technique is commonly employed to treat conditions such as spinal fractures, deformities, or degenerative diseases. The goal is to reduce pain and improve spinal stability. ​

Slip Disc (Herniated Disc)

A slipped disc, or herniated disc, occurs when the soft inner gel-like core of a spinal disc protrudes through a tear in the tougher exterior, pressing on nearby nerves. This can lead to symptoms like back pain, numbness, or weakness in the limbs. Treatment options range from conservative approaches like rest and physical therapy to surgical interventions if symptoms persist. ​

Disc Prolapse

Disc prolapse refers to the displacement of the inner material of a spinal disc, causing it to bulge outwards. This condition can result in nerve compression, leading to pain, tingling, or weakness in the affected area. Management includes physical therapy, medications, and in some cases, surgical procedures to alleviate pressure on the nerves. ​
