Doctors at Dalcross and Macquarie University Private Hospitals
believe that there is an advantage in a team approach to patient
care. At Macquarie we believe in providing the safest and
most competent care possible. To achieve this, we have built
a team of doctors with decades of combined experience in Medicine
and Surgery who are committed to improving patient care. As
our patient, you will have access to all of the skills and experience
that the team approach brings.
Our clinicians have trained in Australia, England, Europe, Canada
and the USA, and have extensive experience in the management of
patients with the most complex disorders. The doctors at
Macquarie are considered leaders in their field. Macquarie
doctors have demonstrated a commitment to life-long learning, and
to providing patients with the highest standard of care possible.
Our teams meet weekly to discuss patient care, recent technical
developments in medicine and current research underway at Macquarie. Our
patients benefit from the knowledge obtained through these shared
ideas.
During your consultation, you may have been seen by one of our
Macquarie University scholars as well as your chosen doctor. These
scholars are surgeons or physicians, some of whom have come from
overseas, working towards higher qualifications at Macquarie University,
and they form a valuable part of the team. Our scholars bring
new ideas and skills to Macquarie. Collectively we all benefit
from their involvement.
At Macquarie we believe that the benefits of a team approach should
extend to all of our patients. We regularly involve other
members of the medical team in your care. Your treatment
generally consists of a series of specialised tasks for which the
expertise rests with different members of the Macquarie team. These
specialised tasks may require different members of the team making
a contribution to care to ensure your management is safely and
competently performed. Due to the complexity of some surgical operations,
it is not unusual for more than one of our scholars or surgeons
to participate in your surgery.
If you have any questions regarding any aspect of your proposed
treatment, then please ask your surgeon or one of the other scholars
or surgeons involved in your care.
All of the members of the Macquarie medical team are here for
your benefit.
