Services

At Mediclinic Kloof, Dr Beukes delivers a comprehensive range of orthopaedic interventions, each supported by state‑of‑the‑art equipment and personalised care:

• Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgery – Involves minimally invasive repair of rotator‑cuff tears, labral injuries, and instability ; moreover, fluid‑management systems promote faster healing.

• Shoulder Joint Replacement – Utilises advanced prosthetics for total and reverse shoulder arthroplasty, and 3D preoperative planning ensures accurate implant positioning.

• Fracture Management – Covers internal fixation of clavicle, humerus, and proximal humerus fractures with locking plates and intramedullary nails ; in addition, intraoperative C‑arm imaging guides alignment.

• Sports Injury Treatment – Focuses on dislocations, ligament reconstructions (e.g., AC joint), and stabilization procedures, thereby restoring function for athletes and active individuals.

• Non‑Surgical Therapies & Injections – Offers image‑guided steroid or platelet‑rich plasma (PRP) injections for rotator‑cuff tendinopathy and early osteoarthritis ; consequently, many patients experience significant symptom relief without surgery.

• Rehabilitation Planning – Collaborates closely with physiotherapists to craft bespoke rehab programmes, which accelerate recovery and minimise recurrence.

Each service emphasises patient comfort, and the clinical team provides clear pre‑ and post‑operative guidance. Furthermore, follow‑up consultations ensure that progress aligns with healing milestones.
