About Me
I am an Australian qualified, fellowship trained orthopaedic surgeon with a subspecialist interest in hip, knee and shoulder surgery. After completing my medical degree at the University of Western Australia, I underwent training as an orthopaedic surgeon under the West Australian training scheme. I have obtained further training and experience by completing fellowships in shoulder, knee and hip surgery including joint replacement surgery as well as the arthroscopic treatment of knee and shoulder conditions. I have also had further fellowship training in general orthopaedic trauma.
My wife and I have two young daughters which ensures life is always busy, challenging and amusing. I am also a keen squash player and serve as a reservist for the army.
