Had left hip replacement 11 weeks ago and my life has gone back to being amazingly good.. I can't thank David enough for my recovery. Highly recommend.
David done one fantastic job on my hip replacement.10 out out 10 thank you David
I have just had my second hip operation with David - the first was 7 years ago. My recovery has been excellent I can’t thank him enough for his professionalism & care - it has made such a difference to my health
Dr. David Love, performed total hip replacement for me only 7 weeks ago. I am now totally pain free and also tried dancing rockn’roll again last night, at a Mother’s Day function. I did it. I love dancing and to be able to do what you love, again is incredible. Dr Love is very professional and caring and would gladly go back again when i need my other hip fixed and eventually my knees. Thanks also to Jenny who is always ready to answer any questions and help with the prosess. Thank you all. Rita Cachia... (Show more)
I’m not the type of person to review But I have to as dr David Love I cannot fault him and his staff they are professional and courteous from the minute I meet his staff they have helped me right through the pre operation to the day of surgery for total hip replacement
Contacted Dr Love in regards to a recurring knee issue. He saw me in person and arranged scans. He contacted me as soon as my scans came back and talked me through all my options. His advice was clear and all the options he presented were easy to understand and potential benefits vs risks explained clearly (his advice was not all medical jargon so I felt comfortable knowing what my choices were). He presented all non-procedural options too - didn't push me into surgery. I'm trying physio/exercise at the moment and seems to be OK. Thanks David and I would happily recommend... (Show more)
Left me waiting in the waiting area for over 30 minutes with no patient in the office. He showed no interest in my knee problem did not look at the knee and showed no interest in looking at the scans. He told me to “take a Panadol “ and live with the pain! Would not go back to him if you paid me!
Dr David Love is a very kind and ethical surgeon. He performed a hip replacement on my elderly father 18 mths ago and a hip revision on his other hip in July this year. I would highly recommend him.
Recently David did a knee replacement and a bone graft for me (very difficult surgery) which was completely successful. I am now fully recovered with exceptional pain free movement and flexibility which I owe to David's expertise, advice and professionalism. Thank you so much for giving me my mobility back. I can confidently highly recommend him.... (Show more)
Took Dr David love 6 months for MRI scan he forgot about it then until there was two weeks left for surgery when he was going to talk me through the process he re reads the scans and says ohh its not your acl ligament thats ruptured its your pcl ligament Im so sorry. After all that shenanigans he handballs me off to another specialist. What a joke this experience was and he only gets 2 stars because the other surgeon completed the surgery successful....

Zero stars. My Grandma had 2 failed hip replacement surgeries with Doctor Love last year in October and November. In the first one he broke her bone and second one he made her problems even worse. She was in hospital for 5 weeks. Unfortunately she suffered a lot for this. Recently she had her 3rd surgery and the surgeon seems to have fixed the issue easily enough. Avoid at all costs....

David is a very personable orthopaedic surgeon who is professional, kind and caring. He took the trouble to see me with very little notice after I broke my foot putting me at ease after knowing how to move forward after my fracture. He will explain things well and has a wealth of knowledge in the field of orthopaedics. His receptionist Jenny is also a lovely lady who is friendly and efficient behind the desk. Thank you David and Jenny.... (Show more)
