Overview
The Division of Orthopedic Surgery at ZHUMC is one of our very active units, where we perform the entire spectrum of orthopedic surgeries. Our division manages a wide variety of musculo-skeletal disorders and injuries from bone and joint pain to the most advanced hip and knee replacement surgeries as well as reconstructive surgeries. The division is fully equipped and we have quick access to the best instruments available in the field.
Our highly skilled orthopedists, each in their own field of expertise, have earned the trust of our patients as they offer personalized care according to individual patient needs. We follow a comprehensive approach to all types of orthopedic conditions, diseases and injuries. Our team explores non-surgical options or minimally invasive procedures whenever possible. This helps patients endure less pain, face fewer complications, and achieve a faster and more long-term recovery.
At our division, we also apply new and innovative approaches in all types of orthopedic treatments, whether surgical or nonsurgical.
