Mr Michael Ledger

Profile

Michael was raised in Perth and from a young age had a keen interest in swimming, surfing, and all sports, which has led him to specialise in sporting
knee and shoulder injuries. He completed his medical training at the University of Western Australia before undertaking his orthopaedic fellowship training.

Following Michael’s fellowship training he undertook specialty training under the supervision of David Dickison in Sydney, Australia with a focus on the latest knee and shoulder arthroscopy and joint replacement techniques. This was followed by a fellowship in shoulder surgery under the tutelage of Wade Harper and Jerome Goldberg at Prince of Wales Hospital, Sydney Australia.

Michael joined the Hollywood Orthopaedic Group in 2012 on his return to Perth and with his colleagues provides services outside of their Hollywood Private Hospital base to Joondalup, Midland, Port Hedland and Karratha in addition to Michael’s Great Southern satellite clinic in Albany.

Albany Clinic

Michael has been providing a comprehensive orthopaedic knee and shoulder service to Albany and the surrounds since 2014. With a focus on the relationships between form of movement, function and performance, Michael manages each case with a considered, and personal approach. He has a team of physiotherapists and rehabilitation specialists whose priority is the best outcome for each patient, whether operative or nonoperative in the approach. Surgically, Michael utilises the newest techniques including robotic knee surgery and patient specific instrumentation. Michael’s administrative team, who are based in Perth, will facilitate all investigations, urgent opinions and offer telehealth appointments where necessary. They are readily available to Albany patients to ensure local and Perth-based care is carried out with ease and minimal disruption.
