At PINTO COELHO CLINIC® – LIVE LONGER, geriatric orthopaedics is approached in a multidisciplinary manner, allowing us to better serve all our senior patients. We believe that age should not be viewed as a disease, but rather as a phase of human evolution, marked by knowledge and wisdom.
However, aging is accompanied by various internal and external factors that can affect health in both positive and negative ways. Therefore, we continually prepare to offer care and rehabilitation to a growing population that demands increasingly specialized attention.
Osteoarthritis, or arthritis, represents one of the challenges in geriatrics, affecting 90% of the adult population and resulting from a process that involves the destruction of cartilage and its repair. This condition is as old as humanity itself.
Considering the aging global population, quality of life becomes an important challenge. Therefore, we recognize that, in difficult times, surgery can offer new hope.
