Dr Robert Fassina

I am now into my 3rd month since having total knee replacements by Dr Robert Fassina.Initially I was hesitant to have them both done close together (2 & 1/2 weeks between surgery) but now looking back it was one of the best decisions I have ever made.Short term pain for long term gain has never been more true!My knee replacements have definitely changed my life and I have Dr Robert Fassina to thank for my new found fitness, ability to walk better and pain free daily regime.I cannot recommend Dr Fassina highly enough. Thank you

Where do I start? At my first appointment I felt at ease as I met Dr Fassina. A welcoming smile, a hello, and an earnest, how are you?" He engages you in conversation immediately and just so effortlessly. When explaining what will happen pre

Having worked as an orthopaedic surgeon for over 35 years, I had not considered requiring surgery myself. Being on the otherside" of surgery has been easy under Dr Fassina's care. My experience with Dr Fassina was exceptional. I cannot thank him enough for the successful outcome.From booking with his friendly personal assistance Bianca to surgical planning and post knee replacement was exceptionally well planned and executed.Being a traditionally trained surgeon I had never contemplated working along-side a robot to perform parts of the surgery. Dr Fassina as I have learned is a leader in the filed of the Mako- robotic assisted knee and hip replacement surgery. Surgery is planned with a CT scan and computer software. During surgery the Mako robot under Dr Fassina's guidance performs calculations and assists to implant the knee replacement with millimetre degree of accuracy. This technology and planning was not available when I performed my 1st knee replacement 40 years ago.The results speak for themselves. After Dr Fassina's anaesthetist performed a spinal block I was comfortable and reading the newspaper 2 hours post procedure. I was able to walk out of hospital and after 6 weeks I am walking to the local shopping centre.I am very grateful to Dr Fassina and his team. As a retired surgeon I considered my option of surgeon carefully. I knew Dr Fassina had all the right credentials and technical experience to perform the op

I recently had a partial knee replacement at Burnside Hospital under the care of Dr Robert Fassina, and in his rooms, Bianca. Thanks to you both for a very good outcome in just a few weeks!

I Had very bad experience with dr. fassina with his consultation..

My mum recently had a hip replacement and is very happy with the outcome. Right from the beginning Dr Fassina was able to reassure her that her pain would subside as soon as the surgery had taken place, his kind and professional nature eased her worry. Post surgery she is extremely happy, highly recommending anyone with extreme hip pain to see Dr Fassina.

Dr Fassina is a starFrom my first visit everything was explained to detail.The operation went exactly as Dr Fassina said it would.Operation happened on a Wednesday and I was home Saturday morning up and walking.12/10. Thank you

I am posting this review on behalf of my Aunty:Hi, my name is Christine. Just over a year ago my GP referred me to Dr. Robert Fassina. My status at the time could be best described as “crippled”. After two total hip replacements in the space of six weeks I can now walk without aids. I am so glad Dr. Robert Fassina came into my life and gave me the chance to now enjoy quality years ahead. Greatly appreciated.
