Trusted by clinics and practices
Patients considering orthopaedic surgery — a hip or knee replacement, a shoulder repair, a sports-injury procedure — research thoroughly and anxiously before they commit. They want to understand the procedure and recovery, and above all to trust the surgeon. Your website is where most of that decision is made, and a thin or dated site lets a more reassuring competitor win the consultation.
Aethus designs websites for orthopaedic surgeons and clinics that earn that trust. Clear procedure and recovery information, credible consultant profiles, separate NHS and private pathways, and easy booking — built to convert researching patients into booked consultations.

Authority and reassurance for a big decision
Orthopaedic surgery is significant, and patients weigh it carefully. We build the content that answers their real questions — what the procedure involves, what recovery looks like, what outcomes to expect — alongside consultant profiles that establish genuine surgical authority. The combination reassures patients and gives them the confidence to take the next step with you.
That depth of clinical content is also what ranks you for the procedure and condition searches patients run, from joint replacement to sports injury.
NHS and private pathways, clearly separated
Most orthopaedic practices work across both NHS and private routes, and patients need to find theirs without confusion. We design clear, distinct pathways for each — private booking and enquiry on one side, referral information on the other — so neither audience gets lost.
Compliant, accessible and supportive
We build GDPR-compliant forms and booking, meet accessibility standards, and provide pre- and post-operative instruction content that supports patients through their care — kept secure and current through our care plans.
Surgical authority a patient can verify
A patient choosing a surgeon is really choosing a track record, and your website should make that track record checkable. We present GMC specialist-register entries, Royal College membership, fellowship training and subspecialty focus where patients, GPs and insurers can verify them, and — where you have them — outcome and volume figures presented honestly, in line with GMC guidance on claims.
Accessible to patients in pain
Your visitors are often older, on crutches or browsing from a hospital bed. We build to WCAG 2.2 AA — legible type, generous touch targets, layouts that hold up at high zoom — and keep the enquiry path short enough to complete without frustration.
Fees and funding stated plainly
Self-paying joint-replacement patients and insured patients need different answers. We publish procedure fees or honest ranges, name the insurers you are recognised by, and explain the self-pay journey — so the financial question never blocks the clinical one.

Frequently asked questions
Can you present procedures and recovery clearly?
Yes — patient education is central. We build clear procedure and condition pages and pre/post-operative guidance that answer patients' real questions and support them through their care, while reinforcing your surgical authority.
Do you handle NHS and private patients separately?
We design distinct pathways for each — private booking and enquiry, and NHS or referral routes — so patients quickly find the option relevant to them.
Is the site compliant and accessible?
We build GDPR-compliant data handling and meet WCAG accessibility standards, and present clinical imagery responsibly with proper consent. A free compliance check is available.
Do you work with individual surgeons and clinics?
Both — from individual consultant orthopaedic surgeons to joint replacement and musculoskeletal clinics. We scale the build accordingly.
How much does an orthopaedic website cost?
Bespoke, custom-coded orthopaedic websites start from £8,000 excluding VAT, with the final figure set by the number of procedure pages and any booking integration. You get a fixed-price quote before anything is built.
How long does an orthopaedic website take to build?
Typically six to ten weeks from kick-off to launch, depending on how many procedures we are writing up. You get a real date at the quote stage.
