Consultation with a physician in Nowa Ortopedia
About the clinic
An orthopedic consultation at Nowa Ortopedia in Kraków, Poland, helps patients identify musculoskeletal issues through physical assessment and imaging. Prices for these specialist exams typically range from $50 to $130, depending on the consultant and diagnostic tools used. The clinic is affiliated with Szpital Dworska and provides a fast-track option to complete ultrasound scans during the same initial visit.
Diagnostic Options and Specialists
Patients receive a detailed evaluation of bones, joints, and soft tissues. Specialists at the clinic use the first visit to determine the exact cause of pain or limited mobility. Several orthopedic surgeons lead the diagnostic process:
- Prof. Henryk Liszka. A specialist in foot and ankle surgery who teaches for the European Foot and Ankle Society (EFAS). A consultation with him may cost around $130.
- Dr. Szymon Oleksik. An orthopedic surgeon with over 20 years of experience who is a member of AO Spine. He offers adult and pediatric orthopedic consultations, which may cost around $60 and $50.
- Dr. Grzegorz Jarosławski. A sports medicine expert with a team-doctor license from the Polish Football Association. A consultation with an ultrasound typically runs $120.
- Dr. Radosław Wojtas. A surgeon with 15+ years of experience focusing on traumatology. His consultation is around $80.
Diagnostic Process and Features
The clinic uses a streamlined approach to minimize the time between the first exam and the results. Diagnostics are available for both local and international patients through different formats.
- On-site ultrasound. Doctors can perform an ultrasound examination during the first visit to visualize joint structures immediately.
- Fast track diagnostics. This system allows patients to complete necessary imaging in one location on the same day.
- Delivery modes. Examinations are conducted in person at the Kraków facility or via online video for remote assessments.
- Specialized evaluations. Specific sessions are available for foot and ankle pathology, sports injuries, and pediatric orthopedic screenings.

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.
