Specialist Doctor/Senior Physician, Orthopedic and Hand Surgery Department

Job Responsibilities

Emergency and Trauma Section

Within the emergency and trauma section, we manage and operate on fractures in all parts of the musculoskeletal system, including pelvic and joint-involving fractures in the upper and lower extremities. In recent years, multi-trauma cases have increased significantly, and close collaboration across disciplines has been established. The section also conducts subacute and elective activities in the form of orthopedic infection surgery, reconstructive surgery (malunion/non-union/metastasis), and deformity surgery, such as pelvic osteotomies in adults.

Foot Section

Within the foot section, there is a strong interest and good conditions for advanced foot surgery. We currently perform a wide range of foot surgeries, from basic forefoot surgery to advanced surgery for Charcot feet, arthrodesis, prosthetics, other midfoot and hindfoot surgeries, and arthroscopies. We have access to a newly built motion laboratory and there are good opportunities for research. Currently, there is one resident physician, one specialist doctor, and two senior physicians working in the section.

Other sections within the department include the spine section, prosthetic section, hand surgery section, and upper extremity section.
