Orthopaedics

Orthopaedics is the diagnosis and treatment of bone, joints and skeleton-related problems.

The University Hospital of North Staffordshire prides itself in having a top quality orthopaedic surgery department. The consultant orthopaedic team are experts in their field and provide a comprehensive service in trauma surgery and elective orthopaedic procedures.

Our orthopaedic consultants specialise in various parts of the body such as hips, knees, ankles, hands, feet, shoulders and elbows and deal with anything from a broken bone to a hip replacement and carpal tunnel syndrome to spinal surgery. Some of our consultants also deal especially with children’s fractures and orthopaedic conditions and sports injuries.
