Orthopedy & sports medicine

ORTHOPEDY

In cooperation with our partner, polyclinic Kaliper, we cover a wide spectrum of injuries and disorders of the musculoskeletal system. But we must bear in mind that the same injury or disorder does not equally affect each person and that is why we treat each patient in an individual manner. Our philosophy makes us to apply the least invasive approach, the surgery being our last option.

Kaliper polyclinic employs a team of top orthopedists and traumatologists dealing with a wide spectrum of lesions and injuries of the musculoskeletal system ranging from bone fractures,  ligament or tendon lesions to worn-out joints.
