Orthopaedic Sports & Joint Centre

Over the years, the Department has grown and expanded its services to serve both local and regional patients. Our outpatient workload is the highest among all the restructured hospitals and among the six sub-specialties offered, Adult Reconstruction and Sports account for approximately half of the entire workload.

The one-stop conditions-focused centre for those with sports injuries or joint conditions aims to provide seamless care to both subsidised and private patients of the Department.

It brings together a team of practitioners which allows for a wider spectrum of team-based treatment options and is supported by complementary services such as Diagnostic Radiology and Physiotherapy. Patient care is enhanced through coordinated workflows, joint consultation and timely access for informed decision-making at a central location. Many published papers have also established that treatments for sports and joint conditions in high-volume centres which incorporate clinical pathways and integrated teams have shown better clinical outcomes.
