Orthopaedic Surgery in Cheras: Restoring Your Musculoskeletal Health

This is an area of surgery concerned with injuries and conditions that affect the musculoskeletal system (bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles and nerves).

Our orthopaedic consultants are specialists in the treatment of injury such as bone fracture, deformity of the spine or limb, or long term degenerative conditions such as osteoarthritis.

We treat patients of all ages:

• Infants or children with defects such as club foot and scoliosis
• Young people (youths) who require joint preserving surgery
• Older patients who require joint replacement from degenerative joint issues

Our orthopaedic specialists lead a multi-disciplinary team including nurses, physiotherapists and occupational therapists to help you on your path to recovery.

Many of our orthopaedic specialists are trained in minimally invasive surgery. Such procedures usually lead to fewer side effects and shorter recovery time.

What We Treat: Conditions & Common Orthopaedic Issues

Among the many ailments that affect the bones, joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments, and the spine, the conditions that are treated by our doctors include the following:

• Fractures and trauma injuries due to accidents or falls.
• Degenerative joint disease, such as osteoarthritis and other forms of joint degeneration due to wear and tear.
• Soft tissue and tendons injuries, such as sprains, strains, tears of tendons, and injuries of ligaments.
• Sport and overuse injuries including injuries to the ligaments, tendons, and cartilage.
• Congenital and developmental deformities such as deformities of the spine, limb deformities, and orthopedic conditions of children.
• Spinal disorders include diseases of the spine, deformities of the spine, and conditions of the spine that deteriorate over time, i.e. degenerative diseases of the spine.
• Whenever it is applicable, bone and soft tissue tumors that are either benign or malignant.

• Trauma surgery and fracture repair - including casting, internal fixation (plating, screw, rod), and management of complicated fractures.
• Surgery on the spine and spinal surgery – for disorders of the spine, spinal deformities, disc disease, or nerve compression.

• Children's orthopaedic surgery & correction of deformities – treat congenital or developed musculoskeletal conditions in children.

Non-Surgical & Supportive Treatments

Not every orthopedic issue will be addressed with surgery within our team. We also offer:

• Physiotherapy and occupational therapy to improve and regain strength, mobility, and function.
• For conditions that don't require surgery or are addressed with surgery as a last option, we offer pain management and conservative treatment (medications, braces/splints, movement therapy, lifestyle & preventative guidance.)
• Rehabilitation programs, whether after surgery or for a chronic musculoskeletal issue, so patients are able to reobtain mobility and independence to enhance their quality of life.
