About Dr Hamish Rae

Dr. Hamish Rae is a well respected and experienced orthopaedic surgeon operating in Hurstville Private Hospital (Sydney), and Goulburn Base Hospital (public). He is dedicated to providing specialised orthopaedic and trauma services to the community with subspecialty interest in arthroscopic shoulder surgery and primary and revision hip, knee and shoulder replacement surgery. Dr. Rae is known for his approachable demeanour, and effective/open communication with patients. He maintains high professional standards and collaborates closely with therapy teams to optimise patient outcomes. He is well-versed in multimodal pain management and enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol, working closely with anaesthestists and physiotherapist to ensure improved early recovery while minimalising complications. Dr. Rae's primary focus is on joint replacement surgery for the hip, knee, and shoulder, as well as arthroscopic and open surgery of the shoulder. He utilises modern technology, including robotic surgery, patient-specific instrumentation, and computer navigation, to ensure precision and accuracy in joint replacement procedures. Robotic surgery is used routinely for knee replacements at both Hurstville Private Hospital and Goulburn Base Hospital. Dr. Rae's extensive training includes fellowships in shoulder and elbow surgery in Sydney and complex hip and knee arthroplasty (joint replacements) in London, UK. He played a pivotal role in establishing the modern orthopaedic department at Goulburn Base Hospital. In addition to his clinical work, he has contributed to numerous international journals and presented his work at international meetings. He remains active in attending and participating in national and international conferences to stay updated on the latest advancements in orthopaedic surgery. As a member of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons and the Australian Orthopaedic Association, Dr. Rae upholds the highest professional standards. Patients under his care can expect thorough assessment, world-class treatment and comprehensive postoperative management.

"Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions."
