Orthopedic and trauma expertise, focused on you
Yordanos Hospital began as a small clinic in 1998 and grew into a dedicated orthopedic and trauma hospital in 2007. Today our surgeons, emergency physicians, and rehabilitation team treat everything from acute fractures to joint replacement and complex limb reconstruction — with the imaging, laboratory, and surgical resources to manage it all under one roof.

Welcome message
“Your trust is our responsibility, and your health is our commitment.”
እምነታችሁ ኃላፊነታችን ነው፤ ጤናችሁም ቁርጠኝነታችን ነው።
In 1998, I took a step that was both challenging and deeply meaningful to me: I established a small private orthopedic clinic, at a time when dedicated private orthopedic services were virtually nonexistent in Ethiopia. What began as a modest clinic has grown over the years into Yordanos Orthopedic & Trauma Specialty Center, with 54 beds, two operating theatres, and a dedicated team of 149 professionals.
