Dr Mehul Mayank is an Australian fellowship-trained orthopaedic surgeon who specialises in hip and knee arthroplasty, and foot and ankle surgery. He utilises minimally invasive and keyhole (arthroscopic) techniques, as well as robotic-assisted technology. Dr Mayank is dedicated to enhancing his patients’ quality of life by focusing on reducing pain and restoring function. He utilises both non-operative and operative techniques in his practice, and always tailors his treatment plan to meet an individual patient’s needs.

He migrated to Australia from India in 2009 after completing his internship training. He worked as a junior doctor in Brisbane and Sydney, and his orthopaedic training began as a registrar at the John Hunter Hospital in Newcastle. During his registrar years, Dr Mayank developed a keen interest in research and evidence-based practice, which led him to complete a master’s degree in Orthopaedic Surgery at The University of Sydney, with a thesis focused on foot and ankle surgery.

He gained extensive experience in trauma and orthopaedic surgery while completing the Australian Orthopaedic Association (AOA) accredited training program in Perth, Western Australia. Following this, Dr Mayank pursued specialised training through two prestigious fellowships.

Ultimately, his love for Brisbane drew him back to the river city and Dr Mayank returned to complete a foot and ankle fellowship at the Mater Hospital under the guidance of Dr Ben Forster and Dr Michael Lutz. This was followed by an Australian Orthopaedic Association Accredited hip and knee joint arthroplasty fellowship at the Prince Charles Hospital under the guidance of Prof Ross Crawford. It was here that he gained extensive training in performing hip and knee robotic-assisted joint arthroplasty.
