• Annually ORTO Clinic doctors (four orthopaedic and two vertebral surgeons, rheumatologist and a radiologist) consult around 40 000 patients.
• Our six surgeons perform approximately 2 000 surgeries per year.
• ORTO Clinic provides a low infection risk – 0.2 – 0.5%. Among other reasons – we have installed laminar airflow system in all three theatres and special scafanders are worn by surgical team during surgery, not allowing any contact between the wound and the personal. (An average percent of infection risk in other hospitals is ~2%.)
• We work only with certificated and world’s leading implant brands and other medical products and technologies so minimizing infection risk and reaching a long lasting effect of a surgery.
• Our clinic has a blood bank in case of massive bleeding during surgery, when high amount of hemotransfusions are needed. We do cooperate with Latvia State Blood Donor centre.
• We provide painless perioperative period to improve surgical conditions and patients satisfaction after the surgery, which are essential factors for positive outcome.
• To minimize risks associated with anaesthesia we practice peripheral nerve block regional anaesthesia under ultrasound control to increase patients safety.
• We cooperate with various specialists from other clinics (infectologist, urologist etc.) in case additional professional help during treatment period is needed.

We keep to highest international standards to provide patients with precise diagnostics, high level treatment, an attitude of empathy and understanding.
