After a tumble in Deakin, I saw Dr Porter for a suspected fracture. He explained the casting process clearly and quickly organised follow-up with a physio. I felt supported throughout and the recovery of my wrist is on track.
Very professional and down-to-earth. Dr Porter diagnosed my knee pain and laid out a plan that included a few simple exercises and a referral to physio. Post-appointment I felt hopeful and less worried about my mobility.
Excellent care in Canberra. I injured my shoulder and Dr Porter took the time to explain the options, including casting and splinting. The staff were friendly, and I left feeling confident about my recovery.
Came in with a dodgy ankle after a turf issue in Deakin. Dr Porter was thorough, scoped out all x-rays, and set me up with a clear rehab path and a timely physio referral. Already feeling improvements week by week.
Relieved to have found an orthopaedic surgeon who speaks plainly. He treated my fracture and explained the casting process well. The check-ins were handy and I appreciated the practical guidance.
I had persistent joint pain and wasn’t sure what to do. Dr Porter assessed me promptly and gave a straightforward management plan. Grateful for the support and the pathway to physio around Canberra.
Top bloke and a solid professional. From the initial consult in Deakin to the follow-up, I felt well taken care of. The casting experience was smooth and the rehab plan has me moving with less pain.
