What is Orthopaedics?
A medical specialty devoted to the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of illnesses and injuries of the musculoskeletal system, including bones, joints, ligaments, muscles and tendons. Orthopedists treat traumatic injuries to bones, such as fractures and dislocations; disturbances in joints, such as sprains, torn cartilages, or sprained ligaments; and inflammation of muscles or connective tissues, such as arthritis, bursitis and tendonitis.
Note: Both Orthopaedics and Orthopedics are accepted spellings. We use orthopaedics internally, but you will see both on the website.
