Wadan Narsey: I am a 71 year old semi-retired academic. I had a total right knee replacement done in Melbourne 10 years ago, unfortunately not going well. Last year, when I could no longer walk 18 holes of golf because of pain in my left knee, I had a total left knee replacement done by Dr Tran.I found him to be extremely patient and professional in explaining everything clearly before the op. Most importantly, his operation was a great success, with my new left knee now bending more than my right knee. I am now walking the full golf course, without any pain.I found Dr Tran's support team including Dr Belinda Smith and the administrative staff, also very professional and helpful.I would recommend Dr Tran most highly for his skills in total knee replacement.Professor Wadan Narsey

David Zeman: and I committed to a knee arthroscopy at my Consultation. I had my procedure done on the 8th May and my knee is feeling great - so great that I am back on the squash court this week and feeling none of the pain I felt prior to the procedure. Having said that, you need to take the advice of the physio post procedure and do the exercises! The team at St Vincent's Private in Werribee were great and the anesthetist called me a day prior to the procedure to ask a few questions and ensure I was aware of the process. The whole experience was seamless and I would highly recommend Mr Tran and the team at SOS to anyone. Great job folks!

UPDATE 26/5/2019 Had my total hip replacement surgery done on 28/3/2019, Mr Tran performed the surgery, I got up and walked the next day, with no pain, left hospital the following day, did all my physio and I went back to work yesterday, so happy to be pain free, can't thank this man enough!

Wahab Pervaiz: Got my ACL ruptured. Dr Tran diagnosed it on the spot. Had a reconstruction surgery last week and Man I'm so glad that my GP reffered me to Dr Tran. Such an amazing and talented personality. Today it's day 4 post Op and i don't feel like taking any pain killers from last 2 days. And about St Vincent Hospital, definitely top notch customer service. Nurses, physiotherapists and every single member of the hospital I met was super friendly and caring. I was super afraid and anxious before surgery but now I have no words to describe my feelings and gratitude. Hats off 👍

Kirsten Norman: I've had 3 surgeries with Phong and I love this man!

Ian Gains: I am 2.5 weeks into recovering from a right-hip revision surgery performed by Dr Lidder at Epworth Richmond, & I am thrilled with the outcome !My first right-hip replacement was performed in 2008, & in the intervening 16 years, the cement had broken down and I had lost around 4cm of leg length.Dr Lidder explained to me in great detail how the revision surgery could recover me my lost leg length & how the new joint would be more stable than its predecessor. His attention to detail & planning were exemplary and because of this, the surgery went well & my blood loss was minimal.I highly recommend Dr Lidder and his team, & I will not hesitate to use his services again in the future, should I need to.

Carmen Stephens: I recently had a knee replacement done by Dr Surjit Lidder and everything went well he is a brilliant surgeon and very caring before surgery and after surgery highly recommend Dr Surjit Lidder .

Francoise McPherson: Dr Lidder has given me my life back! Jeremy Kolt did my original bilateral hip replacement surgery 2 years ago. The right hip had 4 dislocations and 3 subluxations while doing mundane things such as turning over in bed. This led to paranoia about the risk of dislocation and this very much restricted my mobility. Dr Lidder has done revision surgery on the right hip and after 2 years of constant hip pain, now there's no pain at all from day 1 onwards. The mistakes made by Jeremy have been fixed and my hip is now very stable. I thoroughly recommend Dr Lidder as a surgeon. He is very competent, knowledgeable, caring and compassionate! Dr Lidder is simply the best orthopaedic surgeon.

Dave Whitfield: fantastic attention to detail, great friendly manner, and a great result!

JB: I cannot recommend Dr Lidder highly enough. After an accident where a dog ran into me at the park and I fell and broke my right arm I was lucky enough to be referred to Dr Lidder. From my very first appointment with Dr Lidder he put me at ease and explained in detail all the pros and cons of the options available to me. I chose to have surgery and have not looked back. I was staying with a friend in Melbourne and had to return to the Gold Coast. The follow up with Dr Lidder and my own GP was amazing and my recovery has been excellent. It is so good to be treated with such professionalism and genuine empathy by an all round really good guy.

Craig Lawson: Professional and friendly. Top surgeon and caring about your journey to recovery. I have had two hip replacements and no problems at all. All the confidence in the world and Dr Surjit made it possible.

Emma Gill: For anyone with young kids who fracture their bones, this is your guy! Our 9yo broke his wrist in two places on the monkey bars at school recently and Surjit has made the whole process so much easier for us. He has young children himself, so understands the demands and practicalities of managing a situation like this as a parent. He’s had a lot of experience working in paediatrics and has an excellent bedside manner. For someone who works in orthopaedics myself, I can highly recommend him. Thanks Surjit!

Dianne Delbridge: If you need an orthopedic surgeon, Dr Lidder is the best.I spent almost 5 years in constant pain from a nasty ankle injury that happened at work. When Covid hit, no Dr would see me as it was elective surgery and workers comp. I went to many orthopedic Doctors to help, finding Dr Lidder was a blessing.He is incredibly gentle and caring, he knew exactly what to look for and understood my limited knowledge of anything medical, but was able to determine the best option to fix the pain, remove the pins and repair the nerve damage.He kept me informed the entire journey.I still have a long way to go, but for the first time in 5 years I am optimistic that I will now begin to recover.Dr Lidder was thorough, made sure he went above and beyond during surgery to remove the scar tissue, pins and release the damaged nerve. I can't thank him enough.
