Dr David Anthony Parker

BMedSci, MBBS, FRACS, FAOrthA

Amongst Australia’s most experienced orthopaedic knee surgeons, in his 20 years’ experience, Associate Professor David Parker has dedicated his career to improving patient outcomes. He has particular interests in sports injuries, ligament reconstruction, realignment surgery and cartilage pathology, and robotic knee replacement surgery.

As a leader in the field, he has significantly contributed to the improvement of knee surgery and is sought after domestically and internationally to share his clinical skills and knowledge. Passionate about sport, he is actively involved with international orthopaedic and sports medicine organisations, including being President of ISAKOS (International Society for Arthroscopy, Knee Surgery, and Orthopaedic Sports Medicine), past President of APKASS (Asia Pacific Knee & Arthroscopic Surgery Society), and a past board member of the ACL Study Group. He has extensive experience with athletes at all levels, from recreational to elite, and has served as a Consultant Knee Surgeon for NRL and AFL teams.

A dedicated researcher, Associate Professor Parker is co-founder of Sydney Orthopaedic Research Institute (SORI), has authored over 100 peer-reviewed publications and many textbook chapters, and has been awarded the Australian Orthopaedic Association Prize for Research. He performs surgeries at Royal North Shore, North Shore Private and the Mater Private Hospitals in Sydney.

Outside of Knee Surgery, Dr Parker enjoys swimming, surfing, running and music, as well as spending time with his gorgeous wife and 4 children.

Sydney Orthopaedic Research Institute is a non-profit organisation dedicated to research of knee orthopaedic disorders to empower patients and clinicians with improved diagnoses and treatments for restoring knees to optimal function.

This is accomplished by performing high quality research through partnerships with clinicians, scientists and engineers who are motivated by curiosity and committed to the pursuit of excellent patient outcomes. Our core activities are collection, management and reporting of clinical data, research and research training, as well as translating and communicating our findings to the public.

They have a vision to be recognised nationally and internationally as a centre of excellence in the treatment and prevention of knee disorders, through innovative and quality programs in areas of research, education, professional training and community service.
