An experienced specialist in the diagnosis and treatment of hand and arm disorders:
Mr. Robert Savage, Consultant Orthopaedic and Hand Surgeon
in Newport, South Wales, UK.

PRINCIPLE AIMS

Providing careful appraisal of your medical problem or complaint is the first aim of treatment.

Your condition/concern will be analysed through outpatient assessment, whether it be for a recent injury or onset of symptoms, or for a longstanding disorder that has been present for months or years.

If required, X-rays, scans, or other tests will be performed. This will lead to a diagnosis and a discussion of treatment options, based on knowledge and experience.

Personal assessment of your individual needs will result in a decision on treatment which will be discussed fully, indicating the benefits and risks of treatment and the timescale of recovery back to work, leisure, and sport activity.

Treatment will be carried out to high standards at dedicated recognised facilities by skilled teams.
