Orthopaedic Surgeons At Calvary Central Districts Hospital
Consulting orthopaedic surgeons at Calvary Central Districts Hospital specialise in these orthopaedic treatments:
Ankle
The foot and ankle in the human body work together to provide balance, stability, movement, and propulsion.
Elbow
The elbow in the human body is made up of three bones that join together to form a hinge joint. The upper arm bone or humerus connects from the shoulder to the elbow forming the top of the hinge joint.
Hand
The hand is composed of the 14 phalanges (fingers), the 5 metacarpal bones (middle of the hand), and the 8 carpal bones (wrist bones).
Hip
The hip is a complex and essential joint which supports the body’s full weight. It is formed where the head of the femur (thigh bone) meets the socket of the pelvis (acetabulum).
Knee
The knee joint is not only the largest joint in the body, but also the most complex. Absorbing three to six times your body weight with each step, it is one of the most stressed and commonly damaged joints.

The spinal column provides both structural and nervous system support for the body. It is categorised into sections: these include the lumbar, thoracic, and cervical spine.
Wrist
The lower arm or forearm consists of two bones, the radius and the ulna. These bones connect the wrist to the elbow forming the bottom portion of the hinge joint.
