WHO IS AN ORTHO DOCTOR? IS AN ORTHOPAEDIC SURGEON DIFFERENT FROM A ORTHOAPEDICIAN?
Ortho Doctor , Bone Specialist , Orthopaedician , Ortho Specialist , Ortho Surgeon , Orthopaedic Surgeon ( or the American way of spelling Orthopedic) all mean the same.
It is a specialty that deals with the musculosketal system , that is Bones , joints , ligaments and tendons. The primary goal of orthopaedicians is to ensure that the patient gets back moving , for they believe MOVEMENT IS LIFE.
The ortho surgeons are often mocked at , in good humour , as Carpenters and Hardware specialists because of the tools and implants that we employ to achieve our goals. But there is more to the specialty than that. A good ortho surgeon has to be a good physician to diagnose , a good counsellor to advise the patient and a fine surgeon to ensure that all tissues are handled carefully and attempt for zero infection.
At SCOT (South Chennai Ortho and Trauma) Sholingnallur our expert group of Orthopedicians will ensure that your Bone , Joint and Spine are in safe hands.
