The orthopaedic expertise at Eira has long traditions; we have experience of performing over one thousand operations involving knee, hip, shoulder and hand surgery.

Our surgeons, who perform keyhole and joint prosthesis surgery, are among the most prominent in Finland and make use of the latest surgical techniques. In recent years, our orthopaedic surgeons have performed hundreds of different operations with prosthetic joints in the knee and hip. We have all types of prosthesis at our disposal. 

Our comprehensive care encompasses overnight stays on our in-patient unit and a named physiotherapist who begins the rehabilitation as soon as possible after the surgery.
