Post-training Fellowships

I have travelled extensively to further my orthopaedic education. Following my orthopaedic training in Australia, I undertook further training in Sports Orthopaedics and Upper Extremity surgery at the Melbourne Orthopaedic Group. I undertook a Fellowship at the Fowler Kennedy Sports Medicine Institute in London Ontario and the Hand and Upper Limb Clinic in London Ontario where i was the inaugural Shoulder Fellow. I also undertook a Fellowship in Knee Surgery at the Mater Hospital in Sydney.

Since then I have continued my education in Orthopaedic Surgery. I regularly travel to meetings in Australia and overseas to keep up to date with the latest techniques and trends in Orthopaedics. I also regularly provide education to nurses and local doctors to update the community.

Research

I have undertaken two research degrees and have had my theses published. My first thesis was involving Molecular Biology. My second was regarding the role of Arthroscopy in rotator cuff repair.

I have presented at numerous meetings in Australia and overseas. I have been published in journals as a result of my research in Australia and overseas. Most recently I was published as a result of research to confirm the safety of my techniques of shoulder surgery.

Current research topics include revision hip surgery, bilateral knee replacement surgery and anaesthetic safety in shoulder surgery.

I maintain a strong interest in management of sporting injuries. My aim is to return you to your sport as quickly and best prepared as possible.
