Patients with infections and pain issues are also treated in the department. Monday-Friday, one of our teams is dedicated to elective orthopedic patients who have received a new shoulder, knee, or hip prosthesis. Our goal is to continuously develop and improve our operations and always strive to become even better regarding patient safety, patient satisfaction, and work environment.
