What is orthopaedic surgery?

 
Injuries are an unfortunate part of every athlete’s career. So too are they part of life, either through accident or simply getting older. No matter what the cause, you can find help with the specialist orthopaedic team at AIR Medicine, Cairns, North Queensland.

Sports Medicine-based Orthopaedics involves treatment at many levels: an Orthopaedic Surgeon can advise about how to best manage an injury and can assist if surgery is required.
