The orthopedist-traumatologist is the doctor who diagnoses, treats and prevents diseases of the musculoskeletal system.
When should you see an orthopedist?
- Limited or stiff movement;
- Sharp back or neck pain;
- Discomfort or cracking in the joints;
- Sports or everyday injuries;
- Inflammatory, degenerative or congenital conditions.
Whatever problem you have with your musculoskeletal system, at SANCOS you get a comprehensive, interdisciplinary approach for a fast and safe recovery.

Alternative Methods: Intra-Articular Injections
In advanced stages, when conventional methods do not bring the comfort you want, we perform ultrasound-guided intra-articular injections of hyaluronic acid and platelet-rich plasma. This procedure restores mobility and is recommended for osteoarthritis of the knee, hip, shoulder or ankle.
Finally, if a chronic or acute condition requires surgery, our team will guide you step by step to the safest solution.
