The update was a casual round table discussion that focused on:

Meniscal Root Tears, and
Ankle Instability.

Time Well Spent

The format was well received by those that attended and feedback indicated 90% of the GPs felt the meeting was very relevant to their practice and patients.

Both Dr Hughes and Dr Yeo run patient clinics in North Lakes and enjoyed the opportunity to meet with their colleagues and discuss the management of patients.

Chanel 9 News!

October 8, 2024

Our very own Dr William O’Callaghan met Andrew Lofthouse from Chanel 9 news. The discussion covered things patients should consider when making the decision to undergo knee replacement surgery.

Many thanks to the RACGP who put on a fantastic educational meeting. It was a pleasure to have the BOSS doctors involved in the education updates for General Practitioners on upper and lower limb examination with special tests, including a chance to practice examinations on each other. Our thanks to both Eleanor (RACGP) and Nadine (St Vincent’s) for their help in organising this.
