Types of Treatment Centers

Saudi Arabia has over 600 hospitals, including both public and private institutions. Many of these offer specialized orthopedic departments that provide knee treatments, surgeries, and implant services.

There are a significant number of private orthopedic clinics and medical centers across major cities such as Riyadh, Jeddah, Macca, Madina, and Dammam. These clinics often focus on knee-related issues, including surgeries, prosthetics, and rehabilitation services.

Ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) have transformed the outpatient surgery experience by offering exceptional quality care, customer service, and reduced costs. An ASC is a highly specialized health care facility for same-day surgical care. ASCs are solely focused on outpatient orthopedic surgeries.
