Dr David Edis has been living and practising on the Mornington Peninsula for the past two years.
His passion for improving patient care included developing minimally invasive spinal surgery techniques in conjunction with surgeons worldwide. He is currently working with a pain management and multi-disciplinary team in Frankston to help solve complex pain issues.
A world-first operation using advanced software and clever robotics has demonstrated the benefits of a new approach to spinal surgery.
Last month, at The Valley Private Hospital in Melbourne, Dr David Edis used a breakthrough development in the Mazor Renaissance Robotic Guidance system to undertake an entire spinal operation with the patient lying on their side, reducing the time needed for the procedure.
A Launceston research trial will evaluate how robots can facilitate inserting screws during spinal surgeries.
Orthopaedic spinal surgeon Doctor David Edis recently received a $9600 Clifford Craig Medical Research Trust grant to assist the innovative trial.
