Knee arthroscopy
It is the surgery in which a tiny camera called an arthroscope is used to view the structures of the knee joint.
Platelet-rich plasma application
Through centrifugation of the patient's own blood, platelet plasma is extracted, which, when applied to the site of injury, stimulates the production of growth factors that are ...
Viscosupplementation infiltrations
This procedure involves the application of hyaluronic acid or other viscoelastic substances and has the same objective as the corticosteroid.
Cartilage Tears
The cartilage is located on the lower part of the femur; it is a thin, white, and smooth layer that minimizes friction and has little cellularity.
Anterior Cruciate Ligament Rupture
The anterior cruciate ligament is quite well known in the sports world due to the injuries that occur in athletes such as soccer players.
Corticosteroid infiltrations
For infiltrations, a strategic location is chosen within the joint to inject the medications, whether they are analgesics, anti-inflammatories, or growth factors.
Hip arthroscopy
It is a minimally invasive surgical technique that consists of studying or treating injuries of the hip joint.
Posterior cruciate ligament rupture
The posterior cruciate ligament is considered to be of "stability" in the knee, unlike its counterpart, the anterior cruciate ligament, which is thicker because it is a primary ...

Meniscus and Ligament Injury (Arthroscopy).Cutting-edge technology for athletes
As an athlete, a knee injury was my biggest fear. Dr. Calderón applied minimally invasive arthroscopic techniques with incredible precision. Thanks to his discipline and the detailed follow-up at his CIE clinic, my recovery exceeded all expectations. A surgeon on par with the best international centers.

Total Hip Replacement (Arthroplasty).Human quality and surgical precision
After years of debilitating pain, Dr. Josué Calderón performed my total hip replacement. What impressed me most, beyond his impeccable technique, was his sincerity and warmth. He is a professional who truly lives by the principle of excellence, restoring the mobility I thought I had lost.

Reintervention (Knee Revision Surgery).Safety in the expert hands of Dr. Joshua
I arrived at the office with a complication from a previous surgery performed in another city. His thorough approach was key: he investigated my case in depth before intervening. His partnership with the International Hospital of Colombia and his training at the Military Hospital gave me the peace of mind I needed for my successful revision surgery.

Cartilage Injury (Preservation Techniques).A thorough and honest diagnosis
What defines Dr. Calderón is his scientific rigor. He doesn't just scratch the surface; he analyzes the entire context to preserve the joint before considering major surgery. He treated my cartilage injury, and the result has been excellent. His training at the best hospitals in the country, like the Santa Fe Foundation, is evident.

Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive technique (performed through small incisions) that we use to diagnose and treat sports injuries involving the menisci, ligaments, or cartilage, aiming to preserve the natural joint. On the other hand, joint replacement (arthroplasty) is a major reconstructive surgery where we replace damaged surfaces with high-tech prosthetic components, generally in cases of advanced wear and tear or osteoarthritis, in order to eliminate pain and restore mobility.
My practice is based on scientific rigor and biosafety. I perform my procedures at tertiary care institutions such as the University Hospital of Santander (HUS) and through a strategic alliance with the International Hospital of Colombia (HIC). These centers meet the most demanding national and international standards, guaranteeing a safe and controlled surgical environment for highly complex surgeries.
Through my commitment to thoroughness, I conduct a comprehensive clinical and radiological evaluation in my CIE practice. Preservation techniques are primarily indicated in patients with focal lesions or early wear where it is still possible to salvage the original anatomy. My goal is always to exhaust the least invasive options before considering total replacement.
Revision surgery is a reoperation performed when a previous hip or knee replacement presents complications, component wear, or instability. It requires a high level of academic and technical expertise, as well as specialized training in reconstructive surgery, such as that which I received at the Central Military Hospital. It is an area where detailed planning is vital for the success of the case.
I see my private and insurance patients at my PRIVATE PRACTICE located in the International Center of Specialists (CIE), office 712 north (Km 7 Piedecuesta highway). It is a space designed to offer personalized, comfortable care focused on the best results, while complying with all current biosafety standards.
I am a physician from UNAB, a specialist from UIS, and a subspecialist from the Nueva Granada Military University. Furthermore, I am a full member of the two most important scientific societies in the country in my field: the Colombian Society of Orthopedic Surgery and Traumatology (SCCOT) and the Colombian Hip and Knee Society (SOCCAR).
