Orthopaedics

Orthopaedics

The orthopaedic department is equipped with the latest cutting-edge technology in terms of equipment, operating rooms, and recovery areas. With a modern, modular OT dedicated for orthopaedic surgeries, joint replacement and spine surgeries are routinely carried out.

Eminent super specialists from the field of paediatric orthopaedics provide their consultative services once a week and where required, carry out corrective surgeries for managing physical deformities.

This includes sophisticated surgical procedures such as the Ilizarov Technique, which is used for lengthening and realigning bones to correct severe physical deformities.

A striking feature of the Prosthetic and Orthotic (P&O) service is that every artificial limb or appliance is specifically designed by the P&O engineer and tailor-made by technicians to get the best fit for each individual patient. Free distribution drives of medical aids such as walkers, artificial limbs etc. are also conducted annually so that all patients in need receive appropriate support.

In addition to inpatient and outpatient services, a specialist team from this department visits distant and remote areas to conduct interventions.

Outreach camps are also organised periodically to serve patients at their doorstep. Several camps have been conducted jointly with the District Health Department.
