I have clinical interests in hip, knee and shoulder surgery, both replacement and arthroscopy.
Clinical interests include:
• direct anterior hip replacements,
• knee replacements using the latest robotic and computerised techniques,
• arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.
• I do provide services for WorkCover and MVIT patients including medicolegal and permanent impairment assessments.
• My initial training in Medicine was at the University of Cape Town, before pursuing a surgical career. This led to admission to FRCS (Edinburgh) in 1999, and then specialising in Orthopaedic Surgery in Western Australia, admitted to the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons at the beginning of 2006.
• I am happy to provide a Telehealth service to service regional patients and COVID-concerned patients.
• Currently I serve as Head of Department Orthopaedics at Armadale Hospital (public work). My research interests include using innovative technology to measure and improve function without or prior to surgery, and after surgery, and I am privileged to be involved in developing products to improve outcomes in these areas and allow patients to better manage their conditions.
• I consult to patients who are teenagers and upwards.
