Living with knee pain can stop you from enjoying your life. As a fellowship-trained surgeon focused exclusively on the knee, my goal is to restore your mobility and quality of life. I provide advanced surgical care, from robotic knee replacements to ACL reconstruction, at convenient locations near you. My focus is always on understanding your personal goals and helping you return to the activities you love.
Computer-assisted surgical planning combined with robotic precision allows for a truly personalised knee replacement, tailored to your unique anatomy. This enhances implant positioning accuracy and helps preserve soft tissue.
Key Benefits
Research shows that robotic-assisted knee replacement achieves superior alignment accuracy compared to conventional instruments. Current evidence strongly links this surgical precision to more accurate implant placement and the potential for improved functional outcomes.
Your knee anatomy is unique, so your knee replacement should be too. Personalised alignment aims to restore your natural knee anatomy and biomechanics, which can lead to a more natural feeling knee and enhanced functional outcomes
When a primary knee replacement or ACL reconstruction fails, revision surgery requires subspecialist expertise. My fellowship training and extensive experience provide the problem-solving skills essential for successful revision outcomes.
Yes, you will need a current referral from your General Practitioner (GP) or another medical specialist to schedule an appointment. This ensures that seeing a knee subspecialist is the right next step for you and allows you to claim any applicable Medicare rebates for your consultation.
Dr Allom consults at five convenient locations across two regions. In South West Sydney, you can find him at Gledswood Hills, Campbelltown, and Liverpool. In the Mid North Coast, he has clinics in Taree and Forster. This network allows you to access specialist care without the need for long-distance travel.
For your first consultation, please bring your referral letter from your doctor. It is also very important to bring any previous imaging of your knee, such as X-rays, MRI scans, or CT scans, along with the reports. Please also bring your Medicare card and any private health insurance details.
