Over
Dr Kim Latendresse is an orthopaedic surgeon with internationally recognised expertise in hand, wrist, and elbow conditions. With over two decades of experience, he is well-known across South East Queensland for his exceptional skills and dedication to providing best-in-class patient care. Dr Latendresse's extensive training includes completing advanced hand and upper extremity fellowships in Canada and Australia. Before settling to the Sunshine Coast in 2006, he served as a staff surgeon at one of Canada’s busiest trauma hospitals.
Dr Latendresse is committed to understanding each patient’s unique concerns and tailoring treatment plans to meet their individual needs and expectations. His approach combines technical expertise with compassionate care, striving for optimal outcomes for his patients.
