Clinic: Carolina Medical Center
Diagnosis: orthopedic examination
Last week I consulted with Dr. Laskovski (podiatrist) about my hips because I was unhappy with my current UK treatment and I wanted a second opinion. Dr. Laskowski was very attentive and he was also able to quickly arrange blood tests, X-rays and MRI, as I was traveling on purpose and was in Warsaw for only a couple of days.
The hospital itself is very modern and immaculately clean. I chose this hospital because it is orthopedic and is specialized in sport medicine. Moreover, prices are much lower than in the UK.
I was able to make an appointment very quickly and my visit was arranged through Danuta Milanovska (who deals with patients from abroad and also speaks excellent English!)

I liked the Clinic very much. We came from Belarus with a child for a consultation with Dr. Zdanovich. Mrs Danuta met me in the clinic. She helped us with a paperwork at the registration desk as well as she accompanied us to the doctor and helped with translation. Doctor Zdanovich explained everything very clearly. We were very satisfied. We felt the professional approach to the client. Everything is at the highest level. Thank you for your promptness and attentiveness.

The joint prosthesis procedure at Carolina Medical Center has many advantages:

How is an intervertebral hernia treated at Carolina Medical Center?
In the absence of results during the conservative treatment of spinal hernias, discectomy is recommended for patients. This is a surgical procedure to remove all or part of an intervertebral disc.
To reduce the manifestation of postoperative complications in a patient, the surgeons of the clinic perform discectomy using sparing technologies such as endoscopy and microsurgery. The surgeon removes the disc through several minimal incisions 1-2 cm in size.
To determine the exact picture of the anatomy of the patient’s spine and prevent damage to the spinal cord during surgery, doctors use a neuromonitoring system and intraoperative CT.
After a minimally invasive discectomy, patients can walk freely on the 2nd day and lead a normal life after a week.
Why choose Carolina Medical Center for arthroscopy?
Arthroscopy is one of the most requested procedures. Specialists of Carolina Medical Center carry out 100% reliable diagnostics and treatment of articular pathologies using the latest generation devices.
This is an endoscopic minimally invasive procedure. It can be performed under local, less often epidural anesthesia. The surgeon makes 3 minimal incisions through which he performs diagnostics and surgery (if necessary):
- An incision for an arthroscope, a thin catheter with a flashlight, and a video camera that transmits a real-time image of the joint to a large screen.
- An incision for sterile fluid facilitates inspection.
- An incision for microinstruments operated by a doctor.
Arthroscopy is performed with the following pathologies:
- rheumatoid arthritis;
- diseases of articular cartilage;
- osteoarthritis;
- hip dysplasia;
- aseptic necrosis;
- ruptures and injuries of the meniscus;
- dislocation of the patella;
- inflammation of the inner lining of the joint;
- the presence of intra-articular bodies.
After the intervention for 2-3 days, the patient can move without support, and after 2 weeks the patient returns to his usual way of life.
What is the advantage of stem cell treatment of arthrosis at Carolina Clinic?
At Carolina Medical Center, various innovative biological technologies for the restoration of destroyed joints are practiced. They allow doing without complex surgery on the joint or prosthetics.
Biological procedures stimulate the natural processes of restoration of tendons, bones, and soft tissues. Today, the treatment of arthrosis, arthritis, osteochondrosis, and rheumatism with stem cells is an effective and popular procedure.
Arthrosis is a disease of the joints, which is characterized by its deformation. The orthopedic center offers to undergo treatment of arthrosis with autologous stem cells.
The doctor collects the required amount of stem cells from the patient’s adipose tissue. Further, the material undergoes special processing in the laboratory. Ready stem cells are injected into the affected area during the operation. This allows to start the natural process of regeneration and restore the motor activity of the joint.
Stem cells from adipose tissue have advantages over cells from bone marrow:
- a complex positive effect on the body: the work of the vascular, nervous, and endocrine systems is normalized, and the work of the liver improves;
- no rejection by the body;
- the cell sampling procedure is carried out under local anesthesia.
What are the features of orthopedic operations at Carolina Clinic for Children?
To examine the musculoskeletal system of children, the specialists of the medical complex have developed a package of tests. It includes measurement of height, weight, analysis of walking, running, and other specific studies.
Also, many parents come to assess the athletic abilities of their child. Specialists of the medical center will help choose the right sport with the appropriate load.
If problems are identified during the diagnostic examination, doctors offer a successful treatment method.
A lot of proprietary technology is used in Carolina Medical Center. This is one of the reasons why people come here from all over the world. Orthopedists have developed a unique method for the reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament, taking into account the growth of the child. Today this technology is recognized all over the world.
The clinic performed an innovative operation to correct the forearm bone using 3D printing on a ten-year-old girl.
Little hospital patients undergo spinal surgery using innovative stabilization kits.
