About

Dr. Hugo Centomo is a fellowship-trained orthopaedic surgeon in Montreal with a sub-specialty focus on orthopaedic trauma and its complications. He completed his medical degree and orthopaedic surgery residency at the Université de Montréal, followed by a fellowship in orthopaedic trauma surgery at LAC+USC Medical Center and Keck Hospital of the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. He also holds a PhD in kinesiology with a specialization in biomechanics. In private practice, he focuses on fractures that have healed out of alignment and fractures that have not healed.

Clinical Focus & Specialties

  • Mal-Union & Limb Deformity Correction: Surgical correction of arm and leg bones that healed bent, twisted, or shortened after a fracture, aimed at realigning the limb.
  • Non-Union Surgery: Surgical care for broken bones that have been slow to heal or have not healed, including non-unions complicated by infection.

Earlier in his career, Dr. Centomo worked as a kinesiologist in sports rehabilitation, before completing his medical training.

Dr. Centomo sees private patients at the Canadian Limb Lengthening Centre (CLLC) in Mont-Royal, a private orthopaedic practice focused on deformity correction and limb lengthening. The centre's team includes orthopaedic surgeons, nurses, physiotherapists, and support staff who work together across each patient's care.
