Orthopedics

At SMS Hospital, our orthopaedic team is dedicated to providing expert diagnosis and comprehensive treatment for bone, musculoskeletal and joint disorders. Our specialists are experienced in both surgical and non-surgical treatments, and work closely with patients to determine the best course of action for their individual needs. Whether you are experiencing symptoms such as shoulder pain, back pain, joint pain, tailbone pain, leg cramps, stiff neck, wrist pain, or hip pain, our team will provide the right diagnosis and treatment plan. Our expertise includes arthroscopy, trauma recovery, spinal injuries, and joint replacement surgery for patients who can no longer find relief through non-surgical treatments. We use computer navigation surgeries to ensure less postoperative pain, reduced scarring, and a faster return to normal activities. Our team also provides specialised orthopaedic care for expectant mothers, as pregnancy can place a lot of stress on a woman’s body.
