Orthopedic Treatment

When we think about orthopedics, bones and joints come to mind. But this field is so much more than just that and the includes ligaments, muscles, tendons and nerves too that together make up the musculoskeletal system. Trauma and degenerative diseases of the bones lead to a lot of pain which can only be treated and controlled by the expert hands of an experienced orthopedist.

The medical specialty called orthopedics is devoted to the diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of trauma and diseases of the musculoskeletal system. This system requires particular attention as the body begins to age and joints start to degenerate and become weaker and make it easier to fall and fracture or dislocate bones and joints.

Though it was only in 2007 that the 47-year-old GJ Hospitals and Trauma Centre became a multi-specialty hospital under the able guardianship of its Managing Director, Dr Arvind Bhateja, the orthopedics department has grown into a nationally and internationally recognized center for its excellence in innovative and successful surgeries.
