Dr Koen De Smet founded ANCA in 1997 and focussed his orthopaedic practice on hip conditions with the aim of offering world-class treatments. A distinguished career since the 1980s has seen him build an international practice while maintaining a personalised approach. He takes pride in his track record of helping patients walk again who have been deemed 'untreatable' and have given up hope. To give someone their life back and enable them to return to activities and hobbies gives Dr De Smet immense satisfaction.
