Orthopaedic surgeons treat injuries and diseases of the musculoskeletal system, which includes bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles and nerves. They perform both surgical and nonsurgical procedures for people of all ages. They may also use medication and exercise to help treat many musculoskeletal conditions.

These centres are designed with you in mind and are staffed by highly specialised nursing and allied healthcare professionals experienced in treating orthopaedic patients.
