Why patients from Morayfield choose Dr Coory.
Morayfield sits at the heart of one of South-East Queensland's fastest-growing population corridors. The suburb and its neighbours — Caboolture, Burpengary, Narangba — are well served by GPs and general hospitals. For patients who need a shoulder surgeon, Dr Coory's Maroochydore rooms are an alternative to travelling south into Brisbane.
By heading north instead, Morayfield patients reach Dr Coory's Maroochydore rooms in about an hour, without the congestion of the Gateway or inner-city hospital precincts. Dr Coory completed a subspecialty fellowship in shoulder and upper limb surgery and performs Mako robotic-assisted reverse shoulder replacement at Buderim Private Hospital and Maroochy Private Hospital. His practice is built entirely around the shoulder, meaning patients see a surgeon whose daily caseload is focused on the problem they are presenting with.
For patients who need surgery, all three of Dr Coory's operating hospitals sit within the Sunshine Coast region. Post-operative follow-up can be managed through a combination of in-person reviews at Maroochydore or Noosaville and telehealth consultations, keeping the travel burden as low as possible for patients who live in the Moreton Bay corridor.
