Hip Arthroscopy

I utilise hip arthroscopy specific hip problems, in particular femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) through small keyhole incisions. Using specialised instrumentation and a traction table, the hip joint can be addressed while minimising disruption to the surrounding muscles and soft tissues.

​

Common procedures include repairing of the hip labrum, correction of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), and treatment of cartilage injuries. Hip arthroscopy can relieve pain, restore function, and help preserve the native hip joint, allowing return to work, sport, and everyday activities.

 

Every patient undergoes a comprehensive assessment to determine whether hip arthroscopy is the most appropriate treatment, with care tailored to their individual anatomy, symptoms, and goals.

 

If you hip has established arthritis or has an element of hip dysplasia, hip arthroscopy may not be the best procedure for your hip. 

​

I am happy to guide you through the role of hip arthroscopy for your hip.

I routinely perform hip arthroscopy at all 3 hospitals in Geelong.
