At Sunway Orthopaedics, our services are designed to ensure the highest level of patient safety and care during every stage of surgery—from pre-operative preparation to post-operative recovery. By adhering to international and national patient safety goals, we prioritise protocols that minimise surgical risks and enhance recovery after surgery, helping patients achieve the best possible clinical outcomes.

Our team, which includes highly skilled orthopaedic specialists, bone specialists, and other healthcare professionals, works collaboratively to provide quality healthcare and private medical care tailored to each patient’s needs. Throughout the hospital stay, we maintain strict quality assurance practices and hospital safety standards, supporting a seamless transition from surgery to recovery. With a focus on patient safety and clinical quality, our approach aims to provide safe, effective care that upholds the highest standards in healthcare, ensuring peace of mind for patients and their families.
