Providers

Welcome

Thank you very much for your interest in my practice.

I am a fellowship-trained Orthopaedic Surgeon who specialises in the treatment of Foot and Ankle injuries and conditions and Paediatric orthopaedic surgery.

I take pride in achieving the best outcomes for all of my patients. The very best patient care is achieved through collaborative teamwork, with great working relationships between healthcare professionals. This includes expedient assessment and investigation, and then working closely with our patients to make the best informed decisions. Together we will guide our patients through their treatment and rehabilitation.

This section contains information about my scope of practice, recommendations about who to refer and how to make referral.

What to refer?

Mr. Senthi is happy to see any orthopaedic referral including fractures and general orthopaedics.  He has a special interest in foot and ankle and paediatric surgery.
