Results

Please note that all attempts have been made to ensure accuracy of results when discussing recovery times, expected pain or return to function after surgery. These are based on past experiences of Dr Liew and should not be used for future predictions. They are for educational purposes.

References

Whilst references to surgical articles can play an important part in a surgeons decision on how to perform a certain operation, they can be confusing, especially when discussed in their limited forms on a website. For this reason, most references are listed online, to enable patients to seek their own opinions. In general, it is best for patients to contact their doctor to discuss what treatments they may need, and to discuss their personal situation with their orthopaedic surgeon. A 2nd opinion is always encouraged if there are elements of your treatment that don’t make sense or for any reason.
