About Dr Gregory Etherington
Dr Gregory Etherington is an experienced Orthopaedic Surgeon specialising exclusively in Spinal Surgery at Precision Health. With expertise in a wide range of procedures, from lumbar microdiscectomy to lumbar and cervical spine fusion, he is highly regarded in his field. Notably, Dr Etherington is one of the few specialists focusing on scoliosis diagnosis and treatment. After completing his medical degree at the University of Sydney in 1984, he pursued a Masters' degree in Biomedical Engineering before specialising in Orthopaedic Surgery. Further training in the United Kingdom honed his skills in scoliosis surgery. He established his practice in Sydney before relocating to Melbourne in 2011. As a consultant spine surgeon at The Alfred Hospital, Dr Etherington actively participates in clinical meetings, outpatient clinics, and operating theatre sessions. He also provides a vital on-call service for severe spinal injuries at The Alfred. In his private practice, he exclusively focuses on spinal surgery, covering a broad range of conditions, including disc prolapse, spinal stenosis, tumours, and instability. He operates on the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine, with his main area of specialisation being scoliosis surgery. His special interests include Spinal Deformity, Tumours, Cervical Spine Disorders, Infections, Inflammatory Arthritis, Revision Spine Surgery, and Degenerative Problems. Dr Etherington's approach prioritises non-surgical treatment options, resorting to surgery when necessary. He ensures his patients receive the latest evidence-based procedures for optimal outcomes. With a passion for patient care, Dr Etherington excels in communication, thoroughly explaining conditions and treatment options to empower patients in their decision-making.
"Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions."
