We use the latest technology and techniques from around the World, but are very mindful that many older techniques are still the best.
Because we believe that it is vital that the patient is involved in both the decision-making as well as their own rehabilitation, here you will find links to information about conditions along with the treatments provided by Orthopaedics WA. You may also like to view the most frequently asked questions about the conditions.
Arthroscopic Ankle Surgery
Ankle arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure in which an instrument called an arthroscope is inserted into the ankle joint to examine and treat a variety of conditions. It can be used for both diagnosis and treatment.
Bunion Surgery
A bunion is a bony bump that forms on the joint at the base of the big toe. It forms when the big toe pushes against the next toe, forcing the joint of the big toe to get bigger and stick out.
Morton's Neuroma
Morton's neuroma is a painful condition that affects the ball of your foot, most commonly the area between your third and fourth toes.
Sports Injuries
Foot and ankle injuries are quite common in sport. Luckily, the most common sports injuries are simple sprains and strains, but serious injuries can happen as well.
