Halyus Valgus Treatment in Nowa Ortopedia
About the clinic
Nowa Ortopedia in Kraków, Poland, provides specialized surgical care for hallux valgus, commonly known as bunions. Consultations at the clinic typically range from $80 to $130, depending on the specialist and diagnostic tools like ultrasound. The center is known for its focus on foot and ankle surgery, led by Dr. Henryk Liszka, a board member of the European Foot and Ankle Society (EFAS).
Diagnostic options
Before surgery, every patient undergoes a detailed orthopedic evaluation. Specialists use weight-bearing X-rays to assess the bone structure under pressure. The clinic also provides baropodometry to analyze foot pressure distribution during movement.
- Orthopedic consultation (adult, basic). This initial meeting costs around $80.
- Orthopedic consultation with ultrasound. A detailed assessment of soft tissues and joints costs around $90.
- Consultation with Dr. Henryk Liszka. A session with the lead expert costs around $130.
- Consultation with Dr. Jarosławski. An evaluation with this specialist costs around $100.
Surgical treatment methods
The clinic performs over 100 different surgical methods. Doctors choose between open and minimally invasive approaches based on the severity of the deformity. The Minimally Invasive Chevron-Akin (MICA) technique uses a mini burr through tiny incisions, which helps shorten recovery and limits soft tissue damage.
- Chevron osteotomy. This technique corrects mild to moderate deformities through a V-shaped cut in the first metatarsal bone.
- Scarf osteotomy. A Z-shaped bone cut that helps correct moderate to severe hallux valgus.
- Lapidus procedure. This surgery involves fusing the first tarsometatarsal joint, often used for hypermobile or severe cases.
- MTP arthrodesis. A permanent joint fusion recommended for patients with advanced arthritis or recurrent bunions.
- Revision surgery. This procedure removes old hardware and repeats the correction for failed previous surgeries.
Specialist expertise
Treatment is managed by Dr. Henryk Liszka, an MD and PhD with over 20 years of experience in orthopedics. He is a member of GRECMIP, an international society focused on minimally invasive foot surgery. Dr. Henryk Liszka also serves as a lecturer and instructor for professional foot and ankle courses.

How are we doing?
Nowa Ortopedia: more details about the clinic
Specialized Orthopedic Care
The clinic treats a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions through its orthopedic and traumatology departments. Surgeons use minimally invasive techniques to speed recovery and reduce tissue damage.
- Arthroscopic knee surgery performed through 2–4 portals
- ACL reconstruction using the Internal Bracing reinforcement method
- Treatment for meniscus tears, including bucket-handle and complex radial tears
- Foot and ankle surgery for hallux valgus and plantar fasciitis
- Shoulder arthroscopy for instability and rotator cuff repair
Specialists focus on functional restoration by pairing surgery with immediate rehabilitation. Each surgical plan includes targeted physiotherapy to maintain long-term joint stability.
Hand Surgery and Neurosurgery
The facility offers advanced treatment for nerve compression and chronic hand disorders. Specialists perform endoscopic carpal tunnel release through smaller incisions. This allows faster return to activity, and the entire hospital stay typically lasts one hour.
- Microsurgical decompression of the median nerve
- Ultrasound-guided injections for De Quervain's disease
- Surgical management of trigger finger and Dupuytren's contracture
- Neurosurgical care for herniated discs and spinal stenosis
Most hand procedures use local anesthesia and absorbable sutures. This approach removes the need for casting or long-term immobilization in most cases.
Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell Therapy
Nowa Ortopedia uses multipotent cells (MSCC/BMA) to treat degenerative joint diseases and sports injuries. These cells come from the patient's own bone marrow or adipose tissue. The clinic uses Hyalofast, a hyaluronic membrane that serves as a scaffold for stem cells during cartilage repair.
This regenerative approach targets early-stage arthrosis and partial ligament injuries. Multipotent cells are also given during tendon repairs to support natural tissue healing.
Pediatric Orthopedics
The hospital has a specialized unit for children's orthopedic and traumatology needs. Diagnostic services include infant hip ultrasound to screen for dysplasia. The team manages various developmental and acquired conditions in young patients:
- Limb-axis deformities such as varus and valgus
- Perthes disease and femoral head slippage
- Sports injuries and trauma in pediatric patients
At least one pediatric specialist provides consultations in English for international families.
Advanced Diagnostic and Recovery Technology
The clinic uses professional assessment tools to monitor progress and refine treatment plans. Diagnostic capabilities include digital X-ray, CT scans, and baropodometry to assess foot pressure distribution.
- Biodex System for isokinetic muscle strength assessment
- Keiser Functional Trainer for rehabilitation
- Game Ready cold compression system for post-op recovery
- Stryker HD arthroscopy columns for high-definition surgical imaging
- Woodway treadmill with high cushioning for gait training
The physiotherapy department also offers HI-TOP energotonic therapy. This advanced electrotherapy helps manage pain and stimulates tissue recovery.
Services for International Patients
The hospital supports patients traveling from abroad through specialized digital systems. English-speaking specialists are available in several departments, including orthopedics and pediatrics. The facility offers online video consultations for patients who live far from Kraków. For those unable to travel, the rehabilitation team can provide home visits within the local area.
