Integrated Orthopaedic Care Model

Orthopaedic care often requires coordinated input from multiple healthcare professionals. Our orthopaedic surgeons work closely with physiotherapists, rehabilitation specialists, pain medicine physicians, radiologists, rheumatologists, and primary care physicians to ensure comprehensive management.

Patients receive structured evaluation, timely intervention, rehabilitation planning, and long-term follow-up through an integrated care pathway designed to optimise outcomes and recovery.

Clinical Focus Areas

  • Acute fractures and dislocations – upper limb, lower limb, pelvic, and spinal
  • Degenerative joint conditions – osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and other arthritides
  • Spinal disorders – back pain, neck pain, disc prolapse, spinal stenosis, and spondylolisthesis
  • Sports injuries – ligament tears (ACL, PCL, MCL, LCL), meniscal injuries, rotator cuff tears, and tendon ruptures
  • Paediatric orthopaedics – congenital deformities, developmental dysplasia of the hip, scoliosis, and growth plate injuries
  • Geriatric orthopaedics – osteoporotic fractures, hip fractures, and age-related musculoskeletal degeneration
  • Bone and soft tissue infections – osteomyelitis, septic arthritis, and diabetic foot complications
  • Metabolic bone disorders – osteoporosis, osteomalacia, and Paget's disease
  • Orthopaedic oncology – benign and malignant bone and soft tissue tumours
  • Work-related & repetitive strain injuries – carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, and trigger finger
