WorkCover Orthopaedic Surgeon in Annandale
We help you get a surgical opinion for your work injury — no gap fee for approved treatment.
If your work injury in Annandale or the Inner West area is not getting better with conservative treatment, we can help you get an opinion from an orthopaedic surgeon who takes WorkCover cases. Where surgery is the right call, the surgeon operates and we line up physio for the post-op rehab. Approved treatment is billed directly to the WorkCover insurer, so you are never out of pocket.
Annandale sits between the University of Sydney and Leichhardt's commercial strip, and its workforce reflects that — academic staff, independent schools, and a steady roll of small consultancies run out of converted terraces. Parramatta Road hospitality venues and the ongoing WestConnex surface works add trade and kitchen roles to the mix.
