We also perform operations such as:
- hip replacement (arthroplasty)
- joint arthroscopy
- knee replacement
- revision hip and knee services (joint reconstruction)
If you’ve been injured in an accident, you may see one of our consultants:
- in A&E
- in an outpatient clinic
- as an inpatient
- as a day patient
We’ll diagnose and treat your injury and support you through your rehabilitation. This may mean referring you to one of our other services like Physiotherapy or Occupational Therapy.
If you’re suffering from a medical condition related to bones or muscles, you might decide to have an operation or treatment to correct the condition. For minor treatments, you’ll be invited to attend the hospital as a day patient. For more complex operations, you’ll be invited in as an inpatient.
Following your surgery we’ll work with other services and healthcare professionals to help you get back on your feet as quickly and safely as possible.
