Broken bones, dislocated joints, torn ligaments can all generally be managed with some form of orthopaedic surgery. This is a very specialised form of surgery that is often referred to as the carpentry of surgery. It can require some very careful precision to get bones and joints back together again to allow them to heal. It often requires putting some sort of insert, often metal, into the bones or joints to hold the pieces together while the body heals them.

Once healed these bones are often as good as new again. We have a fairly talented team of surgeons who will tackle most problems we are presented with, but if it is beyond our capabilities, we are happy to refer to specialist surgeons as well.
