Rating of the best orthopedic clinics in St. Petersburg in 2024

Throughout the entire period of the existence of mankind, people are constantly faced with problems associated with violations of the normal functioning of the musculoskeletal system. Since the joints, muscles and ligamentous apparatus of a person experience a certain load from birth, sooner or later people begin to experience problems with movement.

There are also many cases of the occurrence of defects in the musculoskeletal system, starting from the period of intrauterine development, and ending with injuries and injuries received in childhood, adolescence and adulthood.

Any diseases associated with mobility disorders of various etiologies are dealt with by a narrow doctor - an orthopedist. First of all, he specializes in the elimination of problems in the spinal column and joints. Also, this doctor treats diseases of cartilage and muscle tissue. Modern orthopedics is classified into functional, sports, clinical and rehabilitation. Orthopedists are adults and children.

In this article, we will learn how to choose the best orthopedic clinic in order to get professional help and not make mistakes when choosing, and what to look for when you first visit, as well as find out what types and types of treatment for orthopedic problems are, make a rating of the best orthopedic centers according to patients in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region.

How to choose an orthopedic clinic

There are two types of orthopedic medical institutions in Russia: public and private. The former, as a rule, have budgetary funding and work under compulsory medical insurance, the latter - exclusively for money. When choosing an institution, we recommend focusing not on the conditions for the provision of services, but on their quality, which consists of the following selection criteria:

1. Technical equipment, equipment used. Since accurate diagnosis is extremely important in orthopedics, it requires high-tech devices and installations. Indeed, not only the success of the treatment depends on the correctness of the diagnosis, but also the speed of the patient's recovery, and the possibility of preventing the occurrence of undesirable consequences. Equally important is the availability of high-quality materials used for fixing the limbs in a motionless state, bandaging, etc. A serious institution pays great attention to purchasing medical equipment from the best manufacturers with a wide range of characteristics and advanced functionality. Even large government centers are eager to procure highly efficient diagnostic equipment.
2. Qualification level, length of service and work experience of specialists.The more there are certified doctors with extensive work experience in a medical institution, the more difficult and controversial cases they "let" through themselves. In orthopedics, especially for children, it is important to detect a defect in time and not waste time on its elimination in order to prevent serious consequences. That is why the diagnosis of diseases in the early stages allows them to be cured completely, or to minimize possible complications. A qualified doctor can quickly diagnose and prescribe adequate therapy. At the first visit, you should pay attention to the length of service of a doctor in the specialty, the time of completion of the last refresher courses, the availability of diplomas and other awards for high achievements. It will be a good sign that a specialist has scientific articles and dissertations, which indicates that he seeks to improve his level of knowledge and follows the latest achievements of domestic and European medicine. Most often, such doctors work in private clinics, since such medical institutions strive with all their might to retain a specialist, offering him decent wages and encouraging financial research and development.
3. The quality and quantity of reviews. This is another of the most important criteria for showing patient satisfaction with the work of doctors. The best medical institutions have a large number of positive reviews and thanks from visitors. It is worth paying attention to reviews posted on third-party resources (not on the official website of the company), as well as those that are written extensively and reasonably, indicating details that outsiders cannot know. Another source of information about the medical center is advice and recommendations from friends and relatives. Since they are interested in recommending a clinic that will help you in a situation that has arisen, their opinion should not be ignored, given also the fact that some establishments are able to go to great lengths in order to attract customers (up to creating "fake" reviews ).

In order not to have orthopedic problems, and if they arise, to quickly deal with them, we advise:

1. Observe the mode of work and rest, do not apply excessive loads during physical exercise and sports, lead a healthy lifestyle and apply the principles of proper nutrition.
2. When the first symptoms appear, immediately seek help, since diseases of the orthopedic profile are characterized by a latent course, and when the first unpleasant symptoms appear, the patient's condition may already be severely neglected.
3. Constantly monitor the development of the musculoskeletal system and newborns and infants, and if the slightest suspicion of health problems arises, seek the advice of specialists.
4. Before the first visit, collect as much information as possible about the medical center in open sources of information (on the official website, in the help desk, etc.). You need to find out not only the list of services provided, but also how to get to the hospital, its working hours and price list.
5. If in doubt about the choice between several clinics, preference should be given to the one whose staff constantly strives to improve their level of knowledge, participates in scientific research and follows the latest advances in the field of medicine.

Conclusion

Despite the large selection of orthopedic clinics, it is not always possible to choose an institution that will help to cope with the problem that has arisen quickly and without complications. This is due to the fact that there has been competition in the field of medicine recently, which is why each medical institution seeks to attract as many customers as possible, while focusing not on the quality of the services provided, but on advertising. Thus, succumbing to promises to cope with any problem, including one that other clinics have failed to cope with, the patient comes to a dubious institution and does not get the result that should have been obtained.

We recommend, first of all, to be guided by the real reviews of patients who received assistance in the medical institution in question, as well as the opinion of relatives and friends. It will not be superfluous to study the relevant thematic forums where people impartially share their opinions about the treatment received.

We hope that our article will help you make the right choice.
