Dr Thornton-Bott has been performing hip and knee joint replacement surgery and revision surgery for over 20 years.  He is a strong believer in conservative management whilst still embracing new technologies, including pain relief techniques that will allow patients to delay surgery until necessary.  He works together with your GP and physiotherapist to establish the best, personalised patient outcomes.

When conservative management fails, he offers minimally invasive surgery, computer navigation, robotic surgery, 3D planning and proven techniques as well as advances in prosthetic Implants, allowing patients to enjoy a return quickly to quality of life with early mobilization, targeted pain control and rapid recovery options.

Dr Thornton-Bott completed his Specialist Orthopaedic Training on the prestigious Oxford training program.  He has completed two years of Fellowship training at the Mater Hospital in Sydney, another Orthopaedic Centre of Excellence, and was a lower limb specialist in Cambridgeshire before coming to Australia in 2014.
