Information for Medical Practitioners
Medical practitioners, physiotherapists, or other health professionals who would like to discuss or refer a patient are welcome to contact Mr Einoder at any time.
General discussions about Reverse Total Shoulder Replacements, MAKO robotic knee surgery and best-practice are also welcome.
How to refer your patient
For urgent referrals please contact our clinic by phone 03 6234 3936.
For routine referrals phone, fax, email or fill out the online referral request.
If the matter is time-sensitive (such as an open fracture or suspected joint infection) please direct your patient to Hobart Private Hospital emergency department and alert Mr Einoder by phone. The emergency physician will promptly assess your patient, initiate emergency management and update Mr Einoder on their condition.
What to supply with your referral
An X-ray is still desirable as part of a baseline assessment. If possible, we kindly request the patient has a recent plain x-ray of the involved area, including presumed soft-tissue problems.
