A/Prof Leo Donnan

I am an orthopaedic surgeon extensively trained in both paediatric and adult orthopaedics. With specialised training in limb reconstruction, orthopaedic oncology and joint replacement I offer a wide range of treatment options to patients of all ages.

I have sub-specialist interests in the correction of congenital deformities, management of bone and soft tissue tumours, infant and child hip dysplasia, joint replacement, paediatric injuries and foot and ankle surgery.

Research and education have always been an important part of my surgical practice. In 2017 I completed a Masters of Surgical Education which has been used in developing instructional and assessment programs for trainee physicians and surgeons. My current research interest is focusing on the use of larger registry data to answer the big questions and health technology innovation to enhance patient care and facilitate clinician decision making.

I practice publicly at the Royal Children’s Hospital and privately at Cabrini Malvern and VicOrtho North Melbourne. For further information please visit my practice website https://leodonnan.com.au.
