Information

Upper Limb injuries can be extremely painful and stressful to deal with, as often it is hard to target where the pain is originating from.

Within our clinic, there is sometimes overlap with patients who experience neck pain, too. This can be linked to the shoulder – and often, patients may present with pain in their arm, which they believe stems from a shoulder issue. Sometimes though, they need to see a spinal surgeon, alongside one of our Consultant Orthopaedic surgeons, as the two work closely together.

In this webinar, we will explore what BMI The Ridgeway Hospital has to offer, like access to some of the most experienced orthopaedic specialists in the country for best-in-class investigation, diagnosis and treatment for all orthopaedic-related conditions and symptoms.
