I’m a Specialist Orthopaedic Surgeon with a passion for restoring mobility and improving quality of life through advanced joint replacement and reconstruction techniques. My expertise lies in arthroplasty surgery, including robotic-assisted total knee replacements, anterior approach minimally invasive total hip replacements, patient-specific total ankle replacements, and complex revision arthroplasty procedures. I can provide joint replacements through No-Out-Of-Pocket Agreements with major health funds.

In addition to joint replacement, I provide comprehensive care for upper and lower limb fractures, including hand trauma surgery. My approach to surgery is highly customized—using cutting-edge technology to tailor each procedure to my patients’ unique anatomy and needs. I am proficient in Materialise 3-matic software, which allows me to design custom 3D printed implants and patient-specific surgical guides. This skill is particularly valuable in complex deformity correction and revision surgeries, setting me apart as one of the few surgeons with this capability.

My training spans prestigious institutions both in Australia and internationally. After completing my medical degree at the University of New South Wales and orthopaedic training in NSW, I pursued subspecialty fellowships in Basel, Switzerland, Tenerife, Spain, and Sydney, focusing on lower limb reconstruction, deformity correction, and advanced arthroplasty techniques.

I’m dedicated to offering customized treatment options for a range of orthopaedic conditions—from arthritis of the hip, knee, and ankle to complex limb deformities and sports injuries. Whether it’s a first-time joint replacement or a challenging revision, my goal is to help my patients regain function and live pain-free.
