Orthopaedic Surgeons At North Eastern Community Hospital
Consulting orthopaedic surgeons at North Eastern Community 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.
Elbow Conditions
Elbow conditions include fractures, sprains, golfer's & tennis elbow, sports injuries and trauma. If you have persistent pain in your elbow, then it might be time to see a specialist at Orthopaedics SA.
Elbow Treatments
Elbow treatments include elbow arthroscopy for fractures, sprains, golfer's & tennis elbow, sports injuries and trauma. If you have persistent pain in your elbow, and you need surgery, then it might be time to see a specialist at Orthopaedics SA.
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).
Hip Conditions
The hip joint is a ball and socket joint surrounded by muscles, ligaments, and tendons. Conditions may include arthritis, hip bursitis, hip dislocation, fractures, and osteoarthritis.
Hip Treatment
Hip treatments may include an anterior hip replacement, hip arthroscopy, hip replacement surgery, or revision hip surgery.
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.
Knee Conditions
Knee conditions include osteoarthritis, patellofemoral pain, sports injuries, or trauma.
Knee Treatments
Our knee treatments include anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, arthroscopic knee surgery, revision knee surgery, robotic surgery, total knee replacement surgery, and unicompartmental knee replacement surgery.

Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis is a condition that affects joints including bone, cartilage, ligaments and muscles. Osteoarthritis can include inflammation of the tissue around the hip joint, damage to joint surface cartilage, bony spurs growing around the edge of the hip joint and/or deterioration of the ligaments and tendons that hold the joint together.
Robotics
Robotic surgery utilises computer-assisted planning combined with a robotic arm guided by your surgeon. It is an advancement of a current technology using computer navigation to assist positioning of a joint replacement implant.
Shoulder
The shoulder is a complex joint allowing us a great range of movement and flexibility. It is also susceptible to injury due to the delicate construction and balance of bones, ligaments, tendons and muscles making up the joint.
