I also am a partner in a website dedicated to providing information on injuries in sport in Australia: http://www.injuryupdate.com.au/

Muscle and tendon injuries are what I specialise in during my clinical practice. I have worked as a sports medicine doctor for the last 15 years, in Sydney (for the last 13 years) and then prior to that at the AIS in Canberra and in Melbourne.

Sports injury epidemiology, and the relationship between ground conditions and football injuries, are my greatest areas of research interest. I have published over a dozen research articles in the last 3 years, which you can view on the injuryupdate website. I am also interested in researching the use of Aprotinin injections in treating tendinopathy.
