Services
Shoulder Surgery
Orthopaedics Victoria specialises in advanced shoulder surgery, including arthroscopic repairs, total and reverse shoulder replacements, and treatment for rotator cuff tears. Our surgeons address conditions like impingement, dislocations, and osteoarthritis, using minimally invasive techniques to restore mobility and reduce pain. Patients benefit from tailored rehabilitation protocols developed by our team to ensure optimal recovery and long-term joint health.
Hip Replacement
We provide total and revision hip replacements for patients with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or post-traumatic conditions. Our surgeons utilise modern prosthetics and surgical approaches to enhance joint longevity and function. Comprehensive pre-operative assessments and post-operative physiotherapy ensure patients regain mobility safely, with a focus on minimising complications and accelerating recovery through evidence-based practices.
Knee Replacement
Orthopaedics Victoria offers total and partial knee replacements for severe arthritis or joint damage. Our team employs precise implant alignment techniques and patient-specific planning to improve outcomes. Post-operative care includes structured rehabilitation programs to restore strength and mobility, ensuring patients return to daily activities with reduced pain and improved joint function.
Sports Medicine
Our sports medicine specialists treat athletic injuries, including ACL tears, meniscal damage, and ligament reconstructions. Using arthroscopic techniques, we repair knee and shoulder injuries to restore stability and function. Patients receive individualised recovery plans, incorporating physiotherapy and gradual return-to-sport strategies to prevent re-injury and enhance performance.
Trauma Surgery
We manage complex fractures, including those of the wrist, ankle, clavicle, and femur, using casting or surgical fixation with plates and screws. Our trauma team prioritises rapid intervention to stabilise injuries, followed by rehabilitation to restore mobility. Specialised care for elderly patients with osteoporotic fractures ensures holistic recovery addressing both physical and social needs.

Don't listen to Kara she's clearly a Karen. If the practice was quiet they probably knocked off early on a Friday. Get a life Kara.
