Alisdair R. Macleod is an orthopaedic surgeon based in Melbourne, working from Level 6, 215 Spring Street, Melbourne VIC 3000, Australia.
His care is focused on problems in bones and joints, especially where arthritis has started to affect day-to-day life. That can include osteoarthritis, and the pain, stiffness, and reduced movement that often come with it over time. At times, he also helps patients who may be looking at surgery options like osteotomy, which is used to change how weight is shared across a joint.
In many cases, appointments are about getting a clear picture of what’s going on and what options make sense. This might mean talking through symptoms, how the condition is tracking, and what non-surgical care has already been tried. From there, he can help patients understand when surgery could be considered, and what to expect before and after a procedure.
MacLeod’s training is in orthopaedic surgery, and his work is shaped by practical, real-world decisions that suit each person’s situation. He aims to keep things straightforward—plain language, clear next steps, and support that feels steady rather than rushed.
If you’re dealing with ongoing joint pain, or you’re trying to understand whether osteotomy or treatment for arthritis and osteoarthritis might be an option, you can book a time in Melbourne and have a proper discussion about your care plan.
