Why UAB?

 

The Orthopaedic Trauma and Trauma Reconstruction Service at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) is the only orthopaedic practice in the state where trauma subspecialists provide patient care. Trauma subspecialists provide care for the most difficult trauma cases in orthopaedic surgery, including patients with complex fractures, posttraumatic complications, and bone infections. They provide patients with comprehensive and coordinated care and work with specialists from throughout the UAB Health System to treat patients with a high degree of organ injury resulting from high energy trauma. Often this multidisciplinary care results in shorter hospital stays and earlier recuperation for patients. They have years of special training and experience in the care and management of difficult fractures.
