Preparation, diagnosis, first consultation

Consultation with an orthopedic surgeon begins with an interview and medical history. Then the doctor will perform a physical examination with a visual analysis of the physiological structure of the skeletal system, and will determine the amplitude of movement in the damaged joint. To obtain a complete picture of the injury and assess the extent of damage to the musculoskeletal structures, the doctor will order additional tests and examinations.

Orthopedic traumatologist

To diagnose disorders and injuries of the musculoskeletal system, orthopedic traumatologists at the GMS surgery center use a number of high-precision methods, including:

  • diagnostic arthroscopy;
  • X-ray;
  • ultrasound, CT and MRI of joints, muscles and ligaments.

Based on the results of these examinations, the doctor will draw up a therapeutic scheme and a plan of rehabilitation.

Planned or emergency surgery

After the orthopedic traumatologist performs a physical examination of the patient and receives the results of various instrumental examinations, he or she will determine how urgently an operation should be performed. Indications for emergency hospitalization and emergency surgery are:

If a planned intervention is to be performed, the doctor will make the necessary preoperative preparations, and will provide the patient with medical support in the postoperative period. During a planned operation, the patient goes to the hospital on the day of the operation or the night before (to be decided individually). In most cases, hospitalization lasts no more than 1-3 days. If an urgent intervention is necessary, immediately after the consultation the patient is admitted to the hospital, where preparation and surgery will be carried out within approximately 1–1.5 hours.

Thanks to a well-designed rehabilitation program, created by the orthopedic traumatologist, recovery will be as smooth and as fast as possible. Sign up any time by phone or online for a consultation with a specialist at GMS Hospital.

Greetings from South Africa,
This is a follow up to our recent stay at GMS where my wife Merle Step had a complete Hip replacement by you recently.

She stood up to the return trip to South Africa very well and is able move around with the aid of a walker without difficulty. I took her to our local General Practitioner on Friday, with all your reports and X-Ray plates. He commented that he was very happy with the excellent procedures that you carried out and felt that she was in excellent professional hands while at GMS. He has referred her to an orthopedic surgeon for a final checkup and stitch removal. Also she is to go to Physo for further manipulation.

From both of us we cannot express our gratitude enough for the professional service, helpful administrative as well as nursing staff that attended to our needs while at GMS. We will always look back and always remember the Russian people for their friendly assistance to two complete strangers from another part of the world. In turn Russia will always be in our hearts and we will be good Ambassadors for your great country and federation.

Please pass on our greetings and thanks to a few that I remember by names, if I have left anyone out I apologies.
