Dr Prasad Athreya is an orthopaedic surgeon based in St Leonards, NSW. He works at Northshore Private Hospital, Suite 5, Level 3, 3 Westbourne Street, St Leonards NSW 2065. If you’re dealing with pain from bones, joints, or soft tissue, he can help you talk through what’s going on and what options might suit you.
His clinic care covers a mix of common musculoskeletal problems. This includes fracture care, so injuries after a fall, knock, or sports incident can be assessed and managed. He also looks after arthritis management, including ongoing joint pain that can come and go over time. For some people, joint injections may be part of the plan, depending on symptoms and how things are affecting daily life.
Muscle strain and related injuries are another focus. These issues can be frustrating because they often limit movement and make simple tasks feel harder than they should. In many cases, the goal is to get you moving as safely and comfortably as possible, with a plan that makes sense for your routine.
Dr Athreya also uses clear, practical explanations. At times it can help to break down what the injury or wear-and-tear might mean, and what to watch for as you recover. He speaks English and Tamil, which can make appointments feel easier for many people.
Experience is built through everyday work with orthopaedic cases like injuries, arthritis flare-ups, and strains. Education details are not listed in this profile, and no research publications or clinical trials are shown here either.
