Orthopedic Specialist

An orthopedic specialist is a medical doctor who focuses on diagnosing, treating, and preventing conditions related to the bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, and muscles. They handle a variety of issues, from sports injuries and fractures to arthritis and complex surgeries like joint replacements. Orthopedic specialists use both non-surgical methods—like physical therapy and medication—and surgical interventions to help restore movement and relieve pain, enabling patients to regain their mobility and improve their quality of life. They often work with other healthcare professionals to provide comprehensive care tailored to each patient's needs.
