OO has approximately 35 percent planned and 65 percent emergency operations. A variety of orthopedic procedures are performed, ranging from routine surgeries to advanced spinal and trauma surgery.

We look forward to moving to new, beautiful premises in the fall of 2025. This gives all employees at OO the opportunity to influence and develop the operations. You will come to a workplace where we have a wonderful team, a good working environment, and exciting challenges. Here you will have the opportunity to work in a wide spectrum of orthopedics, from fracture surgery to elective surgery for both children and adults. We offer exciting and developing tasks where no day is the same as the last.
