Dr Mark Haber: Orthopaedic Surgeon with a Special Interest in Shoulder Surgery, Sydney
Mar 01, 2013
Dr Mark Haber is a Sydney-based orthopaedic surgeon holding Fellowship of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons in Orthopaedic Surgery (FRACS). His clinical focus is on shoulder conditions, with a particular interest in rotator cuff disorders, shoulder instability, and shoulder joint replacement.
Qualifications and approach
As a Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons, Dr Haber has completed the specialist training and assessment required for registration as an orthopaedic surgeon in Australia. Within orthopaedic surgery, his day-to-day practice is centred on the shoulder, managing a broad range of shoulder conditions using both non-surgical and surgical approaches, from physiotherapy-led rehabilitation through to arthroscopic (keyhole) and open surgical procedures.
Dr Haber’s approach is to first establish an accurate diagnosis through clinical assessment and appropriate imaging, then discuss the realistic range of treatment options with each patient – including the expected benefits, limitations, and risks of each – so that patients can make an informed decision about their care.
Areas of clinical interest
- Rotator cuff tears and impingement
- Shoulder instability and dislocation
- Shoulder arthritis and shoulder replacement
- Sports-related shoulder injuries
- Fractures around the shoulder and upper arm
