  • Arthrodesis surgery for joint stabilization
  • Minimally invasive arthroscopic procedures for joint disorders such as elbow dysplasia
  • Cruciate ligament repair, including Tibial Tuberosity Advancement (TTA) or traditional techniques, tailored to the individual patient

Soft Tissue Surgery and BOAS

We accept referrals for BOAS assessment and surgery, as well as complex soft tissue procedures including:

  • Perineal surgery
  • Surgical oncology
  • Skin flaps and reconstructive procedures
  • Urinary tract surgery

Our approach combines advanced surgical techniques with comprehensive perioperative care, supported by in-house imaging (radiography, ultrasonography, CT) and an experienced nursing team.
