How to prepare for an orthopaedic examination?
It is advisable to prepare adequately for an orthopaedic examination. First, collect all relevant medical records, such as X-rays, MRIs, exams and reports from previous doctors.. On the day of the check, wear comfortable clothing, which allow easy access to the affected part of the body. If you wear orthoses or gadgets, them bring your own. Make a note of all symptoms, the duration of the pain and any triggers. Make a list of the medicines you take and any allergies.

Knee examinations by an orthopaedic surgeon

This is followed by a detailed clinical examination with movement control to determine the exact extent of the functional impairment.

Our patients' opinions
My knee situation has deteriorated a lot from playing too much sport for my age. I went to the NYD, where I was examined and diagnosed. Since then, every day has been better, for which I am truly grateful🥰⭐️
I have been having problems walking for some time and I have not got very good treatment anywhere, despite trying. Then a friend recommended the NYD clinic and I have to say, I'm not sorry!
Now I can happily go for walks with my dog several times a day, which I couldn't do before. 💪
