Services
Shoulder Replacement
Shoulder replacement surgery replaces damaged joints with implants to alleviate pain and restore mobility. We use both anatomic and reversed-geometry prostheses tailored to individual anatomy. Patients benefit from improved shoulder function and long-term relief from arthritis or severe fractures.
Rotator Cuff Repair
This procedure addresses torn rotator cuff tendons caused by injury or degeneration. Arthroscopic techniques ensure minimal incisions, faster healing, and reduced post-operative discomfort. Recovery focuses on regaining strength and range of motion in the shoulder.
Orthopaedic Trauma
We manage complex fractures and dislocations of the upper and lower limbs, including wrist, shoulder, and hip injuries. Treatment combines surgical intervention with structured rehabilitation to restore stability and function after traumatic events.
Hand Surgery
Specialist care for chronic and acute hand and wrist conditions, including carpal tunnel syndrome, tendon ruptures, and arthritis. Surgical solutions aim to preserve dexterity and alleviate pain for improved daily functionality.
Shoulder Stabilisation
Surgical stabilisation addresses recurrent shoulder dislocations through techniques like labral repair or capsular tightening. The goal is to prevent future instability while maintaining joint mobility and strength for active patients.

Dr YU listened patiently. he explained clearly cause of pain and steps to take. Felt confident in his procedures to prepare. At surgery instilled calm and confidence.After operation gave information - which helped to calm anxiety/concern.His arranged Physio at hospital and postop was of great value.The followup of v/good Physio knew what Dr YU required.His followup checkup was reinsurance that all was ok for recovery. Highly recomend DrYU who has given me the confidence and results of the shoulder/rotator operation.

Dr Yu performed shoulder surgery on my husband in March, it was a long term injury and we were not sure how successful the operation would be. Dr Yu spent 2.5 hours operating to give him the best chance of recovery. Six months down the track he is delighted with the result. Full mobility has been restored and there is no more pain. Dr Yu has brilliant patient skills, explains everything throughly and follows up with his patients. We would recommend him to anyone requiring shoulder surgery.
