Dr David Agolley performs hip replacement surgery in Tugun, including complex revision hip replacement procedures. Dr Agolley uses some of the most reliable prostheses and modern techniques including minimally invasive posterior, direct anterior approach hip replacement and robotic assisted hip replacement technology.

A total hip replacement (THR) reliably alleviates the pain of the ball and socket joint by resurfacing the socket and replacing the ball (femoral head) with implants specifically matched to your anatomy. The benefit is to decrease or even eliminate your pain, and improve your ability to walk, play sport and enjoy your quality of life.

Dr. David Agolley is a knee replacement surgeon In Tugun, performing Total Knee Replacements (TKR) to alleviate arthritis-related knee pain by resurfacing worn joint areas with specialised implants. Patients benefit from customised procedures via computer navigation & robotic assisted knee replacement technology.

TKR surgery aims to reduce pain, correct deformities, & enhance mobility, enabling patients to resume active lifestyles. Symptoms addressed include localised or widespread knee pain, stiffness, grinding, swelling, & sleep disturbances due to discomfort. Dr. Agolley evaluates patients thoroughly, considering non-surgical treatments before recommending TKR. Enhanced recovery protocols &  multimodal pain management are employed to promote faster healing & reduce hospital stays.

.Dr. David Agolley is an ACL reconstruction surgeon in Tugun, who's procedures involves minimally invasive, arthroscopic-assisted surgery to replace the torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) using various techniques including hamstring grafts. These approaches stabilise the knee, preventing further injury and early arthritis.

Post-operative recovery includes same-day or next-day discharge, two weeks of crutch-assisted weight-bearing, and a gradual return to activities is often experienced: sedentary work in two weeks, driving in 2–4 weeks, running by 3–4 months, and full-contact sports within 9–12 months. Contact our clinics anytime for more information.

Dr. David Agolley is a Meniscus Tear Surgeon in Tugun, treating all types of knee meniscal tears injuries. The C-shaped cartilage between the femur and tibia act as shock absorbers for knee joints and are prone to tearing. These tears often result from twisting motions during sports or rising from a squat.

Symptoms vary based on the injured meniscus (medial or lateral) and may include localised pain, catching, locking, clicking, and difficulty with activities like squatting or climbing stairs.

Dr. Agolley performs minimally invasive knee arthroscopy to repair these tears, aiming to restore function and alleviate discomfort. Don't hesitate to contact us for more information or to book an appointment.

Hip arthroscopy surgery is a minimally‑invasive “keyhole” surgery using a small camera and instruments to treat hip issues. Dr Agolley focuses on active patients with femoroacetabular impingement (cam/pincer), labral tears, loose fragments, cartilage damage and ligamentum teres injuries. Diagnosis relies on X‑rays and selective MRI/CT, with physiotheropy and activity modification tried first.

Surgery reshapes bone, repairs or trims the labrum and removes debris. Early motion and strengthening begin soon after, with high‑impact activities resumed at ~3–4 months. Risks are low and outcomes—especially for FAI and labral repair—are excellent in most patients. For personalised advice and to see if you’re a candidate,contact us today to schedule a consultation at Dr Agolley's Tugun Clinic.

The need for hip labral tear treatment often stem from hip-shape issues like cam or pincer impingement - common in active individuals such as dancers, cyclists, runners, rugby and AFL players—causing a collision between the femoral neck and socket rim that tears the labrum and leads to groin pain, clicking, or stiffness.

Diagnosis typically involves standing X-rays (including Dunn view), with MRI/CT selectively used. Initial management includes avoiding deep flexion, low-impact exercise, physiotherapy for core strength, weight control, and pain relief. If symptoms persist, hip arthroscopy is offered to reshape bone and treat the tear; Dr Agolley will discuss if this or alternative hip preservation surgery is appropriate.
