Mr. Michael Flint is a consultant orthopaedic surgeon with special interest in hip and knee joint surgery in Auckland, New Zealand. His services include management of wide range of orthopaedic care, including:
Musculoskeletal tumours are masses or lumps of tissue that develop in or spread to the musculoskeletal system as a result of abnormal and uncontrollable cell division. The musculoskeletal system includes the bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, and nerves.
Joint replacement is a surgical procedure in which the worn, damaged surfaces of the joint are removed and replaced with new artificial parts. Your doctor may consider a joint replacement if you have severe pain which limits daily activities and is not relieved with medications, injections, physical therapy, or other treatments. The goal of the surgery is to relieve pain and restore the alignment and function of your joint.
If you have any of these conditions and wish to be advised on the most appropriate treatment alternatives, please call during office hours or click here to schedule an appointment.
