Winter Sports Injury

Our team of internationally recognised consultants specialise in all aspects of winter sports injuries from fractures to soft tissue injuries. Our consultants are experts in their field and at OS Clinic we have specialists covering every part of the body. If you have multiple injuries, our team work together to guide you through the diagnosis and be able to advise you as to the best treatment route to suit you. Whether that is non-operative techniques including bracing, physiotherapy or injections through to surgical management.

With specialist paediatric orthopaedic consultants, we can treat children of any age and have partner hospitals that we work with to ensure that your child has access to the right facilities.

Our surgeons work with closely with our network of physiotherapists in helping to achieve the best possible outcome for your injury. Should you require surgery, your surgeon will go through all the options available and help you come to an informed decision that works best for you.

At OS Clinic, you should expect to have a seamless journey in making a diagnosis, starting early management to deal with your injury and planning next steps.

One of the most common injuries sustained on the slopes is an Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) rupture. Traditional techniques replace the torn ACL with using a ligament from another part of your knee including either a hamstring, patellar or quadriceps tendon. While our surgeons are well versed with all these techniques, another option that has been advancing is repairing the ACL. This mean, using the existing ACL and fixing it back to wear it has come from. This gives the obvious advantages of not having to take a tendon from elsewhere whilst providing quicker recovery.

Our winter sports injury clinic offers you a one part MRI and a consultation with one of our consultants for an all-inclusive price of £800, allowing you to get a diagnosis and discuss a full treatment plan. Depending on availability, these can be arranged on the same day, this will be discussed when you call to book your appointment.

For patients who have already had an MRI scan and are looking for a discussion on treatment options or a second opinion, you can book an appointment with a consultant, bringing along your scans for them to review.
