Shoulder and knee surgeon Perth

We are located at Suite 213, 25 McCourt Street Subiaco (inside St John of God Subiaco Hospital). Paid parking is available at the hospital at the McCourt Street entrance, at the main hospital car park at Salvado Road, and there is street parking around the hospital.

You will be asked to complete a patient information form prior to your appointment or attend 15 minutes early to complete in the rooms.  We will be in contact about what investigations you have had done and if necessary, a pre-appointment MRI scan might be advised. 

Please bring a list of all your medications and any significant medical history.  Preparing a list of questions can be a good way to make sure all of your concerns are addressed on the day.

Ideally a referral from your GP is preferred as the GP coordinates your health care and is aware of your medical conditions.  We do accept referrals from allied health specialists including physiotherapists, osteopaths and chiropractors.

If you do not have a referral, you cannot access Medicare rebates for your treatment.

Dr Colvin participates with all health funds on the known gap scheme which means your out of pocket expense for surgery is capped.  Unfortunately, some funds do not have a known gap scheme but you can change funds before surgery with substantial savings.  Health funds are constantly changing their agreements with surgeons.  Feel free to contact the office in advance to discuss.
