Once your condition is diagnosed, you’ll meet your specialist to discuss a plan tailored to your needs. Whether you need a short-term solution or longer-term care, our team will walk you through your options, outline timeframes, and help you feel prepared for the next steps.

We take the time to ensure you understand your diagnosis and what it means for your lifestyle, mobility and overall wellbeing. Managing expectations is an important part of the process. We’ll talk openly about what’s realistic and what recovery might look like, so you feel informed and in control.

No two journeys are the same, which is why we focus on delivering personalised care that supports your goals, every step of the way.

While all of our surgeons at Wakefield Orthopaedic Clinic maintain busy private practices, many also contribute their expertise to the public health system. Dr Andrew Comley, Dr Collie Begg and Dr Arthur Turow all regularly operate at the Gawler Health Service, a small but highly efficient hospital serving communities across Gawler, the Barossa, and the northern districts.

Like many public hospitals, Gawler Hospital, which operates under the Barossa Hills Fleurieu Local Health Network (BHFLHN), has faced significant pressures this winter. The flu season has placed a strain on bed availability and elective surgery schedules across the state. Despite these challenges, the team at Gawler Hospital has gone above and beyond to ensure patients continue to receive the care they need.

Thanks to the tireless efforts of hospital administrators and nursing staff, additional short-stay beds were opened in recovery and day surgery areas, and staff took on extra shifts to ensure surgical patients could be accommodated overnight. These efforts have helped keep elective surgeries on track and waiting lists under control – a credit to the dedication and professionalism of all involved.

We commend the team at Gawler Hospital for their outstanding commitment to patient care during such a demanding time. Wakefield Orthopaedic Clinic is proud to support and work alongside a hospital so committed to delivering quality care to its community.

Earlier this month, scientific findings for the annual report of the Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry (AOANJRR) were presented to a select group of expert arthroplasty surgeons from across Australia.

Held at SAHMRI the home of the national registry and its team of statisticians and analysts - this event provides an important opportunity to review the data collected from every joint replacement procedure performed in the country.

Widely regarded as the global leader in joint replacement registries, the AOANJRR plays a critical role in improving outcomes for patients. Associate Professor Peter Lewis, Clinical Deputy Director of the AOANJRR and a valued member of our team, has contributed significantly to the collation, analysis, and communication of the report’s findings.

This year’s report introduced a new section focusing on revision surgeries, an increasingly important area for guiding surgeons in managing failed joint replacements. Wakefield Orthopaedic Clinic’s Associate Professor David Campbell played a key role in interpreting the data on revision procedures as well as contributing to the primary hip and knee analysis.

Professor Michael Sandow was also part of the expert group, offering his deep expertise in initial and revision shoulder replacement outcomes.

The insights gathered and presented not only inform the registry’s annual report but also help surgeons make evidence-based decisions tailored to each patient. Wakefield Orthopaedic Clinic is proud to be at the forefront of this work, ensuring better outcomes for Australians needing joint replacement surgery.

Your hands do more than you think, so it’s important to take care of them.

Did you know the human hand is made up of the wrist, palm, and fingers and contains 27 bones, 27 joints, 34 muscles, over 100 ligaments and tendons, plus a complex network of blood vessels and nerves?

Our hands enable us to do everyday tasks like driving, writing, cooking, and caring for others, yet we often take them for granted until something goes wrong.

When it comes to hand conditions, surgery is not usually the first option. In many cases, symptoms can be managed through conservative treatments such as splinting or bracing, anti-inflammatory medication, steroid injections, activity modification or physiotherapy.

However, if these approaches don’t provide relief or if the condition is more severe, surgical treatment may be considered.

At Wakefield Orthopaedic Clinic, our specialists work with you and other medical professionals to explore the best options for restoring hand function and reducing pain, so you can get back to doing what matters most.

It’s not often our surgeons have the opportunity to step away from the clinic, so it was a real privilege to come together over the weekend for a celebratory lunch at the beautiful Mount Lofty House.

We marked two special milestones: five years at Calvary Adelaide Hospital and officially welcoming our newest Fellow, Laine Alexander, who joined the team earlier this year.

With busy schedules consulting, operating and caring for patients, these moments outside of work are a rare opportunity to connect, reflect and enjoy time as a team.

At Wakefield Orthopaedic Clinic, we’re proud of the collaborative culture that underpins the expert care we provide, and it’s events like this that help strengthen those professional and personal bonds.

The shoulder is the most flexible joint in the body, enabling a wide range of movement — but this also makes it one of the most unstable, prone to soft tissue strain and degeneration.

While many shoulder injuries are sports-related, they’re only part of the picture. Repetitive strain, workplace demands, trauma, and age-related degeneration also contribute to the high incidence of shoulder conditions.

Most shoulder issues can be resolved or significantly improved through physiotherapy and other non-operative treatments. In many cases, “quick fixes” like steroid injections or early surgery may not lead to the best outcomes.

At Wakefield Orthopaedic Clinic, our orthopaedic surgeons, in collaboration with Sports Medicine colleagues, are developing and publishing improved methods to manage shoulder conditions, offering patients a comprehensive, evidence-based pathway of care.

Our team provides expert diagnosis and treatment, stepping in with surgical solutions when non-operative approaches are no longer effective.

Taking the first step in your orthopaedic journey often begins with a referral from your GP, physio or another health professional. From there, many patients choose to do their own research—reading online, exploring different clinics or even seeking a second opinion. It’s all part of feeling confident in your choice.

At Wakefield Orthopaedic Clinic, we’re here when you’re ready to take the next step. We recommend exploring our surgeons’ profiles on our website and watching their short videos to learn more about their experience, areas of expertise and approach to care.

If you’ve got your referral ready to go, call our clinic on 8236 4100 to get started, or complete the booking form: https://bit.ly/43hfUwP.

And if your referral is for a specialist elsewhere, that’s okay—you can still use it to see one of our experienced surgeons.
