Burnside Hospital acquired the state-of-the-art MAKOplasty® Robotic Assisted Joint Replacement in December 2015. It enables surgeons trained and accredited to use this technology to offer robotic total hip replacement (robotic hip surgery) and robotic total and partial knee replacement (robotic knee surgery) to suitable patients.

Robotic-assisted joint replacement surgery is an innovative procedure that allows surgeons to use minimally-invasive techniques and achieve high levels of accuracy.

Now with over 1,000 successful ortho-robotic procedures carried out so far at Burnside Hospital by five accredited orthopaedic surgeons; Dr Robert Baird, Dr Robert Fassina, Dr Justin Munt, Dr Andrew Morris and A/Professor Mark Rickman, you can rest assured that you are in excellent hands.
