I am early 40s and tore my ACL playing sport. I had already been through ACL surgery with a different surgeon on my other knee when I was a late teenager and remember the process and long recovery and complications. From the very first consultation, Scott Tulloch took the time to clearly explain the injury, the surgical procedure, and what to expect during recovery as well as some advice on rehabilitating it. My Physios and strength coach constantly say what an amazing job Scott did and have started recommending patients. I can honestly say this surgery and this recovery was absolutely textbook perfect with not a single complication and my recovery has been excellent Now, a year later, my knee feels strong and stable, and I’ve been able to return to competitive sport with no issue. I’m very grateful for the high skill level and care Scott provided and and forever grateful that he’s given me the ability to keep doing what I love.

I had previously had a partial knee arthroplasty and this time, because of arthritis, needed a full knee replacement. I researched and found what I believed to be an exceptionally talented and dedicated professional in Dr Tulloch with extraordinary experience in surgical practice, including using the Mako Robotic system which I understood, because of its accuracy, avails a speedier recovery, of course dependent on the patient's condition and fitness. Other factors in my decision were his preponderance for research, teaching and training of peers, the latter point convinced me of my decision. And I was not disappointed. Dr Tulloch is exceptionally caring, giving time to explain intricate procedures and putting up with mundane "run-of-the-mill" questions I had over the course of our pre & post op consultations. I was in hospital for four days for which he followed up every second day to assure me of the success of the procedure and arranging for the recovery support needed through associate GP's and in-home rehabilitation. After six weeks I dropped the morphine pain killers and was able to drive again, after 8 weeks was walking without pain, and began pedalling with an inhouse exercise bike and hopefully heading back to my mountain bike cycling by week twelve! I mentioned to Dr Tulloch that I am eternally grateful and highly recommend him to anyone needing any orthopaedic surgery.

Can't rate Scott highly enough. First vist to Scott was some eight months before eventual surgery with another two visits prior to the operation. These consultations were informative, helpful, and very reasurring with the decision on operation timing left to me. Immediately impressed by his manner, openness and obvious competence. The operation and recovery went without a hitch.
