Olympion Sports Medicine and Joint Reconstruction Clinic, Patras, Greece : more details about the clinic
Greece, Patras
Dr Andreas Papadopoulos Sports Medicine and Joint Reconstruction Clinic is a specialist orthopedic and trauma facility in Patras, Greece. The clinic has two specialized departments and performs surgeries at Olympion Medical Center. It focuses on sports injuries, arthroscopy, and robotic-assisted joint reconstruction.
Surgical Statistics and Leadership
Dr. Andreas X. Papadopoulos leads the clinic. He is an orthopedic and trauma surgeon with over 20 years of experience. He serves as Director of the Sports Injuries Unit at Olympion Medical Center. His personal surgical record exceeds 5,000 successful procedures.
The Sports Injuries Department is a high-volume unit. Under Dr. Papadopoulos, the team performs 200–250 major operations each year. This caseload keeps the team sharp in complex joint reconstructions and trauma care.
Specialized Orthopedic Procedures
The clinic provides advanced surgical solutions for joints and sports-related trauma. Treatment plans match the specific injury and the patient's activity level. Key specialties include:
- Robotic Joint Reconstruction: Surgeons perform total knee and hip replacements using digital navigation for sub-millimeter accuracy.
- Knee Arthroscopy: ACL and PCL ligament repairs, partial meniscectomy, and cartilage treatments like microfracture surgery.
- Shoulder and Ankle Care: Treatment for ankle impingement, loose body removal, and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty for complex fractures.
- Hand Surgery: Endoscopic carpal tunnel release – a minimally invasive technique for rapid return to work.
For hand surgery, the endoscopic approach lets patients leave about one hour after the procedure. Most return to complex manual tasks within 48 hours. The small incision preserves surrounding tissue, so recovery is faster.
Advanced Surgical Technology
The clinic uses robotic and navigation platforms to improve surgical outcomes. These tools give real-time feedback during surgery. This helps surgeons balance soft tissues and align implants precisely.
For knee replacements, the CORI Surgical System creates a 3D digital model of the joint. It maps anatomy during surgery, so preoperative CT scans aren't needed. The system measures joint position over 300 times per second to guide the surgeon.
Hip procedures use the Naviswiss navigation system. This platform provides real-time kinematic mapping for optimal acetabular positioning. Precise alignment prevents post-operative dislocation and ensures leg length symmetry.
International Patient Services
The clinic offers a structured workflow for patients traveling from abroad. Before booking flights, the surgeon conducts a virtual consultation via WhatsApp or Zoom. Dr. Papadopoulos reviews MRI or X-ray imaging to prepare a preliminary surgical plan.
International packages are all-inclusive for cost transparency. They typically cover:
- Surgical and anesthesia fees
- Hospital stay at Olympion Medical Center
- Required medical implants and components
- Post-operative physiotherapy sessions
Recovery timelines vary by procedure complexity. Major reconstructive surgeries require a 10–14 day stay in Greece for intensive physiotherapy. Arthroscopic procedures need only 3–5 days before patients can travel.

I would like to sincerely thank Mr. Andreas Papadopoulos for his excellent care and professionalism. I underwent surgery for an anterior cruciate ligament rupture, and from the very first moment I felt trust and security. He explained in detail every stage of the process and was always willing to answer my questions. I am still in the rehabilitation period, but so far my progress is very good, and I am particularly satisfied with the way he handled my case and the support he provided. I would highly recommend him for his scientific expertise and his human approach.

Excellent experience! After 7 months (with constant changes of doctors and medications), he identified my problem immediately and, with patience, analyzed the alternative solutions... Polite, patient, kind!!!
His secretary (Gogo) was extremely polite, sweet, and with a willingness to help!

An amazing doctor and a great person. He recently operated on my husband, Vlasis Andrikopoulos, and everything went perfectly!! He had also operated on me before, on my shoulder, and I haven’t had any problems at all until now! Thank you very much, doctor!!

I also want to share my experience from a recent surgery I had on my shoulder… I had basically torn everything… tendons… supraspinatus… etc. Dr. Papadopoulos, apart from being a very good doctor and highly specialized in these specific procedures, is also above all a person… After the surgery, I didn’t even need to take any Depon. I stayed one day there, of course, and after the operation I received the appropriate medication and painkillers… I follow the doctor’s instructions to the letter, and everything has been going great up until today, when I’ve now passed one month and five days!! Overall, from the very first day I called, the receptionist put me in touch with the doctor immediately, and there was frequent communication regarding the follow-up checkups!

An excellent doctor and a wonderful person. My wife and I are grateful for the work and the recovery from the problem that had been tormenting her (a ganglion cyst) in the ankle/ankle joint. We wish him always to be well!!

After years of suffering with my arm, in December I underwent shoulder arthroscopy by the doctor and the result was excellent. From the first moment I felt confident, he explained the problem and the procedure in detail and made me feel completely safe. The rehabilitation went much better than I expected and today I feel truly justified and happy for my choice. He is an excellent and experienced doctor, I highly recommend him!!!

An excellent doctor, Mr. Papadopoulos, and above all, a man. He operated on my son, who is 17, who had a complete ACL tear in his knee, with great success. The child returned soon to school and to his daily life.
I want to express my gratitude for the excellent work and the impeccable cooperation, both for him and for his son, Christos Papadopoulos, for the excellent job he did in the rehabilitation with physical therapy.
Thank you very much as well for the kindness and impeccable service.
I feel very lucky—you can’t go wrong by recommending you!!!

I had 2 surgeries the same day, on my biceps and on my shoulder. A great doctor, and the result is perfect on both my biceps and my shoulder. The hospital stay was truly fantastic, and the collaboration was as it should be. Great doctor.

An excellent doctor and a wonderful person — highly recommended! I visited Mr. Papadopoulos for my problem. It was an excellent experience! From the very first moment, he made me feel very comfortable and, above all, safe!! The doctor is an outstanding scientist and shows genuine interest. He dedicated plenty of time to listen to my concerns, answer all my questions with patience, and explain in detail my situation and the treatment. The diagnosis and treatment have been and still are completely correct. I feel lucky to have found such a capable professional and, above all, a person who truly cares. I highly recommend him to anyone/a who is looking for a doctor who combines knowledge and empathy. Thank you very much for everything, doctor..!!!
