Senior's Orthopaedic Clinic

Because trouble getting up from a chair isn't just ageing.

As we grow older, changes in bone strength, balance, mobility and joint health can make everyday activities more difficult. Trouble walking, climbing stairs or getting up from a chair may seem like a natural part of ageing, but timely care can help prevent further decline. The Senior Clinic at Sterling Hospitals provides comprehensive assessment and personalised treatment to help older adults manage pain, improve movement, reduce the risk of falls and continue living as independently as possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

Trouble getting up from a chair — is that really an orthopaedic issue?

It can be. Difficulty getting up from a chair, along with trouble walking or climbing stairs, are among the signs we evaluate at the Senior Clinic rather than dismissing as a normal part of ageing.

What does a fall-prevention assessment involve?

It covers balance and mobility, bone health, vision-related concerns, medication-related risks and muscle strength, with a personalised plan created from the findings to reduce fall risk.

Can osteoporosis be caught before a fracture happens?

Yes. Bone health and fracture-risk assessment can identify weakening bones early, often before any noticeable symptoms appear, allowing for preventive strategies.

Is rehabilitation available after a fracture or surgery?

Yes. Our physiotherapy and rehabilitation programmes support recovery after surgery or fractures, with individualised plans for balance training, strength building and regaining independence.
