ORTO.pl is an orthopedic hospital team located in Wrocław, Poland. It operates as the Advanced Orthopedics Center within EuroMediCare Hospital. The facility has five specialized departments treating musculoskeletal disorders. Diagnostics, surgery, and rehabilitation all happen in one location.
Clinical Statistics and Leadership
The medical team performs about 350 orthopedic operations each year. One physician guides each patient from the first consultation through full recovery. Dr. Krzysztof Ciechan leads the department – he was appointed Head of Orthopedics at EuroMediCare in 2025.
The surgical team includes 10 doctors with focused expertise in joint and bone conditions. Dr. Czesław Kalinowski and Dr. Sylwester Pysiewicz lead knee, hip, and foot surgeries. Dr. Jacek Martynkiewicz and Dr. Wojciech Marek specialize in shoulder and hand disorders.
Orthopedic Specialties and Advanced Procedures
The clinic offers both surgical and conservative treatments for orthopedic conditions. Surgeons follow a "hospital without pain" approach for every procedure. This combines targeted anesthesia with nerve blocks to control postoperative discomfort.
Foot and Ankle Surgery
Specialists treat deformities like hallux valgus (bunions) and hammer toes. Hallux corrections use either soft-tissue procedures or bone osteotomies. Minimally invasive techniques are also available, requiring only a few small incisions. Bone union typically takes about 6 weeks.
Knee Joint Care
The center provides reconstructive and prosthetic solutions for knee injuries and degenerative changes. Surgeons perform ACL reconstructions using grafts from the patient's own tendons. For knee replacement, both cement and cementless fixation methods are available. Regenerative options include cartilage reconstruction with biological materials like Hyalofast.
Hand and Shoulder Treatment
The Hand Surgery unit treats carpal tunnel syndrome, Dupuytren's contracture, and fractures. Carpal tunnel release takes about 2 hours, with full recovery in around 3 months. Shoulder treatments include arthroscopic Bankart repairs for instability and rotator cuff surgeries.
Spine Rehabilitation
Therapy programs address discopathy, spinal canal stenosis, and sciatica. The rehabilitation team focuses on pain reduction and core stabilization. Mgr Agnieszka Trytek-Pysiewicz leads this area, covering both conservative and postoperative care.
Diagnostic and Treatment Technologies
ORTO.pl speeds up treatment planning with full imaging on-site. Patients can receive a diagnosis and treatment plan during their first visit. The clinic has several diagnostic tools:
- MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) for detailed tissue assessment
- RTG (X-ray) to evaluate bone structures and confirm union
- Ultrasound (USG) for real-time soft tissue diagnostics
- EMG (Electromyography) to diagnose nerve conduction issues like carpal tunnel
- CT (Computed Tomography) for complex fracture assessment
Operating rooms handle both traditional open surgery and arthroscopic procedures. Arthroscopy uses camera guidance through 5 mm skin openings. This method works for both diagnostic inspection and joint repair.
Services for International Patients
The clinic organizes treatment to accommodate patients traveling from abroad. The integrated pathway allows imaging and procedure planning during the initial visit. Patients needing a hospital stay have 24/7 surgical and anesthesiological coverage.
On-site rehabilitation can start as early as 48 hours after certain surgeries. Patients may continue recovery through the clinic's outpatient services. Specialists provide consultations in both Polish and English.
