Dr. John Trantalis graduated with Honours from the University of New South Wales in 1996. He completed his Residency at the Prince of Wales Hospital and undertook orthopaedic training on the Sydney Training Program, gaining Fellowship of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons in 2006. He was appointed to the Concord Repatriation and General Hospital  as a VMO Orthopaedic surgeon in 2008.

After Dr Trantalis completed his general orthopaedic training, he then dedicated eighteen months to fellowship training specifically in shoulder and elbow surgery. This has allowed him to learn and become adept with the latest techniques in arthroscopic and reconstructive surgery of the shoulder and elbow. He has a particular interest in advanced arthroscopic techniques for the repair of massive rotator cuff tears, and recently presented on this topic at the Shoulder and Elbow Society of Australia Biennial Meeting in Perth 2008.

Teaching
Dr Trantalis is actively involved in teaching at both under-graduate and post-graduate levels. Under-graduate teaching is conducted through the University of Sydney. Post-graduate teaching is conducted through the training programs of the Australian Orthopaedic Association (AOA). Dr Trantalis is also involved in continuing education programs for general practitioners and physiotherapists.

Volunteer Orthopaedic Work
Dr Trantalis is an active participant in "Orthopaedic Outreach", a recognised organisation committed to improving health care in less developed nations. He has recently visited The Solomon Islands as part of a team of volunteers, where in addition to providing teaching and training to the local surgeons and health care workers, he assessed and treated injuries and conditions affecting the local population.

Dr. Trantalis sees patients in Concord, Miranda and Randwick, and has both public and private hospital admitting and operating rights in these areas (please see Contact page).
