Held at MacKenzie Quarters on Thursday 8 June, eight orthopaedic surgeons addressed key questions and need-to-know information for GPs, who are often the first health professionals to treat patients with joint or minor orthopaedic trauma. 

Presented in a range of formats including small group discussion and case studies, topics covered hip, knee, shoulder, ankle and lower back presentations.

Our special thanks go to the event’s major sponsor, Bendigo Radiology, and to Zimmer Biomet, Smith+Nephew and Medacta, who generously contributed to help us host a successful educational event.
