Upper limb
Most of the orthopaedic conditions we treat are due to degeneration of tendons, ligaments, muscles and joints. Some of the conditions we treat are caused by trauma, usually as the result of an accident or a sports injury. Others are caused by cumulative disorders, such as repetitive strain injuries which occur through work or sport. Most of the orthopaedic procedures we provide are supported with physiotherapy and occupational therapy.
We specialise in treating injuries such as fractures and soft tissue trauma as well as age related damage to shoulders, arms and hands. This includes arthritis, ligament damage, tendon degeneration and tears, nerve compression and inflammatory problems which can affect joints such as the shoulder, elbow or wrist.
