Rest assured, you’ll be in safe hands
As an expert in Orthopaedic Surgery, Mr Stitson understands the importance of helping you return to your previous level of mobility (or fitness) as promptly as possible, by minimising the effect your painful joint condition has on your life.ORTHOPAEDIC TREATMENTS
As we will all suffer from some form of bone or joint pain in our lives, waiting for treatment can be painful so we must act quickly to manage the condition and prevent it from restricting our lifestyles. Access to knee and hip surgery including pre-tests/scans, treatment and aftercare, are all performed by Mr Stitson and his highly experienced team.
KNEE REPLACEMENT
A surgical procedure to replace a knee damaged by degenerative or other conditions. This type of operation may be considered for the treatment of pain and functional limitations resulting from various kinds of arthritis or the chronic effects of trauma to the knee.
Partial Knee Replacement
A partial knee replacement is an alternative to a total knee replacement. It is most commonly performed on active, often younger patients with extensive wear and tear isolated to one compartment of the knee.
REVISION KNEE REPLACEMENT
A revision knee replacement is required when an existing knee replacement fails. This highly specialised type of surgery involves the removal of part or all of a previously inserted total knee replacement followed by the insertion of a new replacement.
Knee Arthroscopy
Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure often described as ‘keyhole surgery’. Arthroscopy may be recommended for the treatment of conditions such as meniscal tears, micro-fracture, removal of loose bodies or a diagnostic procedure.
Hip Replacement
A surgical procedure used to replace a hip damaged by degenerative or other conditions. This type of operation may be considered for the treatment of pain and functional limitations resulting from various kinds of arthritis.
Revision Hip Replacement
A revision hip replacement is required when an existing hip replacement is worn out. This highly specialised type of surgery involves the removal of part or all of a previously inserted total hip replacement followed by the insertion of a new replacement.
