ORTHOPAEDICS
Getting you moving again — bones, joints, muscles and spine — from fractures and sports injuries to joint replacement, with rehabilitation built in.
Movement, restored
Orthopaedics is about restoring movement and relieving pain. Your bones, joints and muscles are the framework you rely on every day, and an injury or worn joint can quietly take away your independence.
At Putra Medical Centre we treat trauma, sports injuries, worn and arthritic joints, spine problems and children’s conditions — from conservative care right through to advanced surgery. It’s more than fixing fractures: we plan joint preservation, keyhole procedures, reconstruction and, importantly, the rehabilitation that gets you back to normal life. Our surgeons work with anesthesiologist, physiotherapist and pain specialists across every stage.
What we help with
Not sure whether you need a surgeon? Start with what hurts — plenty of what we see never needs an operation.
A broken bone
Fractures from accidents, falls or sport.
Hip or knee pain
Arthritis and worn joints that limit you.
A sports injury
Ligament tears (like ACL) and tendon injuries.
Back, neck or nerve pain
Disc problems and trapped nerves.
Shoulder problems
Pain, stiffness or instability.
Thinning bones
Osteoporosis and fracture risk.
Your child's bone or joint problem
Children's orthopaedics.
What we can do about it
Our orthopaedic care falls into seven areas. Pick the one that matches your situation.
Getting a broken bone back into position, and holding it there while it heals.
What this includes
- Casting and splinting
- Internal fixation with plates, screws and rods
- External fixation
- Fracture follow-up and monitoring
Restores alignment, prevents lasting deformity, and ensures proper bone healing.
When a worn joint has taken enough away from you, replacing it gives it back.
What this includes
- Total knee replacement
- Total hip replacement
- Shoulder replacement
- Computer-assisted precision implant alignment
Relieves chronic arthritis pain and restores mobility and independence.
Ligament and tendon injuries — repaired, then rehabilitated properly so they don't come back.
What this includes
- ACL and other ligament reconstruction
- Tendon tears and injuries
- Structured rehabilitation programmes
- Return-to-activity planning
Restores stability, gets you safely back to activity, and lowers re-injury risk.
Back and neck pain that's coming from a disc or a trapped nerve, rather than muscle strain.
What this includes
- Spinal decompression
- Spinal fusion
- Disc problems
- Spinal stenosis
- Nerve compression
Reduces chronic back pain and the nerve symptoms that come with it.
Camera-guided surgery inside a joint, through incisions small enough to cover with a plaster.
What this includes
- Diagnostic arthroscopy
- Keyhole knee surgery
- Keyhole shoulder surgery
- Cartilage and meniscal procedures
Less tissue damage, faster recovery and a shorter hospital stay.
Bone and joint conditions in growing bodies, which behave differently from adults'.
What this includes
- Childhood fractures
- Congenital and developmental conditions
- Growth-related problems
Care matched to growing bodies, not scaled-down adult treatment.
Thinning bones give no symptoms at all until something breaks. It's worth knowing before that happens.
What this includes
- Bone density assessment
- Osteoporosis treatment
- Fracture risk reduction
Protects high-risk individuals from fractures.
Surgery is only half of it — recovery is the other half.
We build physiotherapy and enhanced-recovery (ERAS) into your plan from the start, with early mobilisation and multimodal pain control. That's what gets you regaining strength and back to daily life faster, rather than just being operated on and sent home.
Your treatment journey, step by step
Whether or not you end up needing surgery, here's how it runs.
Consultation & imaging
Assess the injury or condition with X-rays or scans.
Your plan
Conservative care or surgery, explained with the recovery outlook.
Treatment or surgery
Using minimally invasive techniques where suitable.
Rehab
Physiotherapy starts early, built into your recovery.
Follow-up
Review and clear return-to-activity guidance.
