HCA launches orthopaedic rehab service
An orthopaedic trauma rehabilitation programme at HCA’s London Bridge Hospital has opened in response to demand.
According to programme lead Mr Paul Culpan, a consultant trauma and orthopaedic surgeon, specialist care following a major trauma is currently very limited.
He said: ‘The new Orthopaedic Trauma Rehabilitation Programme will offer a solution to this problem and gives patients the best possible chance of rebuilding their health, and lives, after a major trauma.
‘This service offering is like nothing else available in London. Led by a team of people who are working with major trauma cases every day and using advanced technologies and therapies, our multidisciplinary approach will enable us to get the best out of each step of rehabilitation and recovery.’
