At Melbourne Knee Centre, every clinical decision and surgical procedure is focused on a single joint, meaning that every patient benefits from our considerable subspecialty knee expertise and multidisciplinary care across sports injuries, reconstruction, replacement and preservation.
Melbourne Knee Centre provides comprehensive care for acute sporting injuries through to degenerative joint disease.
The knee is one of the body’s most complex joints. The consequences of a sporting injury, progressive osteoarthritis of the knee, or persistent instability can affect many aspects of life.
Managing knee conditions well requires a thorough understanding of the whole joint, a considered approach to conservative care and/or surgery, and a skilled team able to support patients across every stage of care.
Every patient we see has a knee problem.
Every procedure we perform is a knee procedure.
That concentration sharpens surgical skills and deepens clinical judgement in ways that take years of focused, high-volume practice to develop.
It also means we are well placed to advise when surgery is not the right answer. Non-surgical pathways, rehabilitation guidance and second opinions are core parts of our work.
Our multidisciplinary team includes a range of professionals who work together across the full patient journey, supporting you from your first consultation to your return to sport or daily activity.
We are also keen to make your care as convenient as possible. We recognise that travel into or across the city can be difficult so we offer telehealth consultations for selected patients to ease travel burdens and maintain access to specialist care.
Melbourne Knee Centre works closely with GPs, sports physicians, and a multidisciplinary network of allied health and performance professionals — including physiotherapists, osteopaths, chiropractors, and strength and conditioning specialists.
We welcome your phone calls, value collaborative relationships, and aim to accommodate urgent referrals promptly — particularly for elite athletes and time-sensitive sporting injuries.
Melbourne Knee Centre is connected to the Melbourne Knee Foundation, a registered charity supporting research and education in knee surgery.
Our surgeons also direct the Melbourne Knee Fellowship, a 12-month surgical training program that has equipped knee surgeons from around the world for over 20 years.
Melbourne Knee Centre prioritises early assessment for athletes with time-sensitive sporting injuries. Our surgeons can review scans, provide initial advice on management and create a plan for treatment and return to sport.
We aim to accommodate urgent referrals quickly, and encourage you to call our rooms on 03 9853 5981.
Melbourne Knee Centre is located in Kew next to St Vincent’s Private Hospital.
