What happens in Mandurah, and what happens in Perth
Worth being clear about, because it affects how much travelling you actually do.
In Mandurah: your initial consultation, examination and review of your imaging; the discussion about whether surgery is the right step and which operation suits your joint; and your post-operative reviews once you are home and recovering.
In Perth: the operation itself. Dr Clark operates at St John of God Murdoch, Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital, Osborne Park Hospital and Perth Children’s Hospital. Murdoch is roughly 50 minutes up the Kwinana Freeway from Mandurah.
For most patients that means the great majority of appointments are local, and the trip to Perth is for the surgery and the immediate hospital stay.
What Dr Clark sees patients for
- Knee arthritis and hip arthritis — assessment, and the non-surgical options before replacement is considered
- Total knee replacement and partial knee replacement, performed with robotic assistance
- Hip replacement, including the direct anterior approach
- Knee revision surgery and hip revision surgery — for a joint replacement that has loosened, worn, become infected or failed
- Meniscus tears, ACL injuries and knee arthroscopy
Areas served
The Mandurah rooms see patients from across the Peel region and the southern coastal corridor, including Mandurah, Halls Head, Falcon, Dawesville, Pinjarra, Rockingham, Baldivis, Secret Harbour, Golden Bay and Waikiki, as well as patients travelling from further south.
If you are closer to Perth, the Murdoch rooms may be more convenient.
The practice in numbers
Dr Clark performed 401 hip and knee replacements in 2025 and more than 900 since the start of 2024, around 60% of that work being knee replacement. Sixty of those procedures were revisions.
How often a surgeon performs an operation is a fair thing to ask about, and a fair thing to expect a straight answer to.
