Orthopedic department
The orthopedic department, under the direction of Dr. Marwan Haddad, a shoulder and elbow specialist, includes many senior doctors and specialists in the field.
Since Dr. Haddad moved to Nazareth and started to manage the department in February 2020, new and advanced equipment has been purchased that enables us to deal with all orthopedic problems.
The department participates in several national and international studies. It serves as a training center for the American company INTEGRA and CONMED in shoulder tear surgery and shoulder replacement.
In 2020, a new service for the treatment of foot and ankle problems headed by Dr. Belal Khatib, was established in the department. The treatment aims to correct foot deformities without the need for large incisions, which improves the results and shortens the rehabilitation period.
Thanks to the collaboration of knee surgeons, Dr. Mohamed Younes and Dr. Marwan Ghantus, athletes with knee injuries can find a therapeutic solution to their problems.
The department provides several services:
Shoulder and elbow treatments, joint replacement, foot and ankle problems, sports injuries in the knee and hand.
Thanks to the skilled staff, we address all trauma problems and we treat all types of fractures without the need to transfer the patient to hospitals in the central region.
