The FV Hospital Bone and Joint Centre is a one-stop-shop with a proven track record for all types of orthopaedic conditions. The guiding principle of the FV Bone and Joint Centre is to deliver exceptional patient care.
Orthopaedics is the medical specialty that focuses on injuries and diseases of your body’s musculoskeletal system, which is made up of bones, muscles, joints and ligaments. Aging, trauma, poor posture or high-impact sports can all cause injuries to these areas of the body.
FV Hospital provides a multi-disciplinary team of consultant orthopaedic surgeons, anaesthesiologists, pain specialists, nurses and occupational therapists to help patients return to an active and pain-free lifestyle. With our focus on expertise, speed, technology and patient-centric care, we are with our patients every step of the way on their road to recovery.
