Welcome to OrthopedicsAfrica.com
Population: 1,584,985,259
There are millions of people in Africa living in communities without easy access to an orthopaedic physiotherapist and/or orthopaedic surgeon.
Without easy access to a physiotherapist or surgeon, millions of people in Africa are considered to be at an increased risk of (1) receiving delayed or inadequate care and (2) to develop physical disabilities that prevent them from working and supporting their families.
This isn’t just a personal problem it’s a economic threat to every government in the world that depends on a young and healthy workforce for its survival.
If you are a registered physiotherapist or orthopaedic surgeon who provides video or telephone consults in Africa then we invite you to join our teleorthopaedic directory free of charge at contactus@teleorthopaedics.com
