A career as a consultant orthopaedic surgeon is extremely interesting, challenging, and rewarding. Most consultants develop a subspecialty interest, while being fully trained in the generality of trauma and orthopaedic surgery. As in other specialties, the roles and responsibilities consist of direct clinical care and supporting professional activities. Consultants are ultimately responsible for all patients under their care and also for the supervision and leadership of their team.
Orthopaedics is a medical specialty that focuses on the diagnosis, care, and treatment of patients with disorders of the bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons, nerves, and skin. These elements make up the musculoskeletal system. The physicians who specialise in this area are called orthopaedic surgeons.
Orthopaedic surgeons use surgical techniques to diagnose and treat injuries that are caused by trauma, congenital diseases, degenerative diseases, infections, and tumours relating to the musculoskeletal system. Orthopaedic surgeons are involved in all aspects of heath care pertaining to the musculoskeletal system. They use medical, physical, and rehabilitative methods as well as surgery.
Subspecialties include:
