Dr. Ash Moaveni
Practicing Orthopaedic Surgeon
BHB, MBChB, MPH, FRACS, FAOrthA
I'm a practicing orthopaedic surgeon and shoulder and upper limb sub-specialist with extensive local and international experience. I care for more than a thousand new patients annually at Eastern Melbourne Orthopaedics and Sports, including a significant number of patients eligible for third party compensation.
I am a co-author and frequent contributor to peer-reviewed journal articles and textbook chapters, and I aim to provide tailored, comprehensive medicolegal reporting that covers diagnosis, treatment, and the clinical reasoning behind it.
I provide:
Independent Medical Examinations (IMEs), file reviews and telemedicine assessments for all orthopaedic conditions, with a sub-specialist focus on shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand conditions
Independent assessments of workplace injuries, transport accidents, public liability matters and total disability claims
Medical negligence evaluations for musculoskeletal injuries
