What patients say about Dr Murray Blythe on Google, shown as written by each reviewer.
I had Meniscus surgery and was very happy with the results. Dr Murray Blythe did such a good job. I was back to normal within a week. Would highly recommend him and he’s actually quite funny 😁
I highly recommend Dr. Murray! He took the time during my visits to listen to and understand my pain and concerns and made sure I received the treatment best suited to me. From appointments to procedures, the entire experience was professional, comfortable, and reassuring. I’m very grateful to Dr. Murray and his team for the care and treatment I received.
My experience with Dr Blythe and his staff was excellent. Dr Blythe is very good at what he does, and it is obvious he is passionate about his speciality. He is honest and candid, explains everything well, very personable, and he did a great job with my foot. The results from the surgery exceeded the expectations. Having never organised any kind of surgery previously, they made the whole process effortless for me. Allison organised their side completely and took the time to answer questions for me that really had nothing to do with them in regards to private health, hospital etc. Dr Blythe was recommended to me by another doctor and I’m very glad they did. I can’t thank them enough.
I saw Dr Blythe to remove sea urchin spines from my foot, souvenirs from a holiday overseas. He booked me in for an operation under anaesthesia to remove two spines and now I am walking around pain free and without limping for the first time in months. I wish I’d seen him sooner. Dr Blythe is clearly very knowledgeable and highly skilled in his field but he is also very easy to talk to, good natured and a gentleman with it. I highly recommend Dr Blythe.
Amazing surgeon! Excellent service, Couldn’t fault Dr Blyth all the way through my Mums hip replacement journey. It’s only 7 weeks post op and she’s doing amazing. Thank you to Alison for being so helpful.
Dr Murray Blythe is a fantastic orthopaedic surgeon. He instantly relieved months of pain by performing a hip replacement. Within a few weeks I was back walking normally and going about my daily routine. He is thorough and listen to any concerns. Thankyou Murray
Hi I’m posting this on my wife’s account. I had double knee replacement surgery, 1 full replacement on my left and a partial on my right on the same date 11/6/2026 at Mt Lawley hospital. Dr Blythe was recommended by my local Dr. I have nothing but praise for pre and post surgery, Dr Blythe was very informative and made me aware that ultimately it was my choice for surgery on both knees. After being in considerable discomfort for some time I chose to have both knees done at the same time which was right for me. Surgery was 6 weeks after first consultation this was due to my level of health cover and could have been sooner but for a 2week delay getting in for ultrasounds and X-rays. Throughly recommend Dr Blythe 6 weeks post op and walking unaided with no pain. Cheers Joe. 55yrs.
I had an excellent experience with Dr. Murray Blythe. From my very first appointment, they took the time to thoroughly explain my diagnosis and discuss all of my treatment options in a way that was easy to understand. Their professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care made me feel confident that I was in good hands throughout my surgery/treatment. They were patient in answering my questions and always made me feel heard rather than rushed. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an orthopaedic specialist who is not only highly knowledgeable but also down-to-earth and compassionate.
Absolutely fantastic. No fuss, no beating around the bush, just honesty and integrity. 100% recommend. (Full hip replacement)
It's been a year since Murray Blythe replaced my left hip. I never imagined I would ever be pain free again. Fantastic surgeon, who explained everything clearly and showed such care and support right from the start I'll never be able to thank Murray enough. A big thanks also to Ally on the administration side. Best Wishes Mandi Saunders xxxxxx
I would highly recommend Dr Blythe. He is professional and meticulous from the first appointment through to surgery and as well as with follow up. Dr Blythe performed a bilateral total hip replacement for me in March this year and the results are perfect and life changing. He has completely changed my quality of life and I am forever grateful for this amazing surgery. Dr Blythe also came highly recommended to me through a number of contacts in and around the medical field. Thankyou so much Dr Blythe
MY HERO! After 2 years of other orthopaedic surgeons unable to identify exactly why I was experiencing excruciating pain in my left knee, I finally met Dr Murray Blythe after a friend recommended that I see him. Dr Blythe identified the problem immediately and was able to discuss both the problem (being my left hip) and the solution (being the need for a total hip replacement). At the initial appointment (which was extremely thorough) Dr Blythe showed me one of the many scans taken previously and even I could plainly see the problem with my left hip ! I was so relieved to discover what the problem was and couldn't understand why other specialists couldn't identify it! Long (and extremely painful) story short, I had my total hip replacement (left hip) on 3 February 2026. It's now mid-May and I am pleased to report that the surgery was a huge success and I am totally pain free in my left leg. I am now out of the wheelchair (pre-surgery) and walking on my own without any walking aids at all. In fact, within 2 weeks after surgery I was able to move and function more than I had been able to do0 for the 2 years previously. At my 6 week post-op appointment, Murray was amazed at the difference in me physically and mentally.... I called him MY HERO from that day on and still do. I highly recommend Dr Murray Blythe not only for his outstanding surgical skills but for his ability to make you feel comfortable and to explain and discuss with you what the problem is and what is the solution using language that you are able to understand. Thanks to Dr Blythe, I now have my life back...... I am only 64 years old and will be walking (unaided) down the aisle on Saturday 30 May 2026 to marry my partner of 5 years. Thanks to Dr Murray Blythe.
I recently had a right hip replacement with Dr Blythe and I'm so happy with the result and the after-care from both Dr Blythe and his secretary Ally. I would and will highly recommend him to friends and family. Thanks Murray 😊
I would like to thank Dr. Murray Blyth and all associated staff for the professional manner, that they showed me in my procedure and after care. I am 65 years of age and had a Right Hip replacement. Since my initial consultation Murray was polite, concise and clear in his explanation of the procedure. My wife was particularly appreciative of the time taken by Murray to call and advise on the outcome after the operation. I found Murray to be very down to earth, and I would not hesitate to refer his services. Thank you once again, Bruno Staltari
As someone that works in the healthcare industry I don’t give out reviews lightly. When making decisions about your health it’s important to ensure you research all aspects from the surgical technique, to the prostheses used, cost and hospital. To me bedside manner is not a necessity just a bonus, so patients get a big bonus Murray Blythe. Murray did my first left hip replacement 8 years ago when anterior approach was less common and a fantastic outcome that hasn’t missed a step. I am now 2 weeks post op following my right hip replacement and although it might seem early to provide a review, its warranted. I gave up the crutches by day 5 and am now walking around with mild discomfort. If you are looking for a surgeon (for any procedure) make sure they can rationalise their choices due to clinical outcomes putting the patient first, like Murray. Behind every good surgeon is a fantastic team and Ally is all of that. Hopefully that is my last visit! But I will happily refer family, friends and colleagues to Dr Murray Blythe
DR Murray Blythe Thank you so much for you great work I have never walked better being pain free now An awesome surgery explained what was going to happen all the way though and made me feel comfortable during and after the surgery Highly recommend
I had a hip replacement 6 weeks ago and I'm super impressed with my recovery, Murray and Ally are very easy to get along with and talked and explained stuff in a language i understood, Murray also has a good sense of humour which suited me as I try not to take things to serious,highly recommended ❤️❤️
I had my meniscus tear treated by Murray Blythe just 2 weeks ago and couldn’t be happier with the experience. He did a fantastic job very professional, relatable, and down to earth. From start to finish, the whole process was comfortable, easy, and smooth. Highly recommend.
This is the second surgery I have had with Dr Murray Blythe. This one was a total knee replacement. From the moment I walked into his office, I felt seen and heard. His manner is friendly and I never felt pressured into making a decision on the spot going for such a major surgical intervention. Ali, Dr Blythe’s secretary is lovely and she knows so much. Always had an answer when I telephoned. So, recovery still in process but I chose the right surgeon, no regrets.
I recently had a total knee replacement with Murray Blythe and I could not be happier . From my first visit he was professional and warm making me feel confident that the whole process would go well . I was off the heavy meds after 10 days , driving at 2 weeks and back to yoga at 4 weeks post op. Ally in his office was also great making sure I was happy with the process and was always available if I had questions .
Professional, respectful, compassionate, responsible are a few words to describe Murray , Ally and staff. Many thanks.
Dr Blyth is the best orthopaedic surgeon! I recently had my right hip replaced and I would highly recommend Dr Blyth he is so humble and really puts you at ease before surgery ! Also I would like to say, his receptionist Ally is so helpful and knowledgeable regarding getting things booked and answering any questions before and after surgery Thankyou Dr Blyth for my new hip ! 😊
I've recently had a total knee replacement surgery which I am totally over the moon with. Murray Blythe has given me my life back . Can't thank him enough and I'm so grateful and lucky to have been one of his patients. I'm extremely pleased with the results of the surgery and the expertise and skill of my surgeon
Very successful operations for plantar fasciitis and meniscus tear of knee. Highly recommend. Thank you, Dr Blythe.
Murry and ally are so welcoming make you at ease from the moment you walk in I would definitely recommend Murry to people who need surgery he makes it so clear what he is going to do from your first visit to the operation table thank you for helping me with my ankle surgery 3 weeks ago
My husband and I can't thank Murray enough for our new hips. Totally professional. Thankyou also to Ally and nursing staff at Joondalup Hospital. We would recommend you to anyone Murray.
Murry Blythe straightened my toes and removed a mortons neuroma, he is an excellent siurgeon and would recomment him to anyone
Dr Blythe was professional at all times, attended to all questions and reassured me. I received excellent care from Dr Blythe and his team and the surgery resulted in pain free movement. A great result for me.
Great experience with Murray. Left anterior hip replacement and it was a straightforward process even with my complex back issues. The whole team was professional and friendly. Murray is a great surgeon with a friendly bedside manner.
I just recently underwent my 3rd surgery performed by Dr Blythe. Having had a THR and ankle fusion previously, it was a no brainer who I would prefer to go to to complete the trifecta with a TKR. As with all my surgeries with Murray, he explained thoroughly what I would be in store for, benefits & risks of each op and success expectations, especially with my knee replacement due to the arthritic damage to my knee. His relaxed and human bedside manner gives you confidence that you know that you are in the right hands and have made the right choice of surgeon. I was never pushed into surgery, actually the opposite due to my young age (that always makes me laugh.) and was given alternatives to try before operating as a last resort. I am now 6 weeks post surgery and what a true Wizard and Master Surgeon he is. I am walking unaided albeit slower but walking just the same. I have not been met with any unforeseen issues at all and I can't THANK Murray enough for making me feel human again. The trust I have in Dr Blythe as a Surgeon and as a caring Human Being I can only attest to by being a frequent flyer to his surgery and operating table for repair with his compassion & care before, during and after. Thank you also to Ally for organising everything from beginning to end. Nothing is ever any drama or hassle. I know you're the brains in the outfit. You work as a team and that is evident from the moment you walk through the door. My final recommendation for Murray and his team - 100%
I recently underwent a hip replacement with Dr Murray Blythe six weeks ago and couldn’t be more pleased with the results. His professionalism, attention to detail, and calm, reassuring manner made the entire process seamless from consultation through to recovery. The surgery was a complete success, recovery has been remarkably smooth, and I’m now walking comfortably with no pain. Dr Blythe and his team provided exceptional care throughout — I highly recommend him to anyone considering hip surgery.
Amazing 🤩 Amazing 🤩 Amazing. - not all Hero’s wear capes.
I cannot recommend more highly Dr Murray. Down to earth Surgeon who is brilliant at his job. Two knees thanks to Dr Blythe and his marvellous staff.
Professional easy to converse with. Explains the procedure in easy to understand terms and what the after care will entail. I would definitely recommend this surgeon every went very smoothly, no stress. Ally on the front desk is very helpful. The best thing ever is I was first on the list 🙂 Thankyou Dr Blythe

It’s called osteoncrosis my blood supply died around my bone I know right.I been living on painkillers Tapendadol not really knowing how bad they are. My GP recommend Dr Blythe and from the moment I walked or wobbled in the impression was Fantastic. I can’t thank you enough for my new hip Dr Murray. I never thought. I was terrified this man whom I’ve met twice is going to help me.You are such a Brilliant Surgeon I can’t even put a bandaid on straight lol.You are absolutely incredible and so is Alley she’s your right hand man.woman I know.6 weeks in I actually can’t believe it. Xxx♥️🌷🌺💕🌸
Was very impressed by Murrays approach, friendly ,informative and business like. And even more impressed 7 weeks down the track. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to Family and Friends. The lovely Ally made the whole journey so easy, efficiency personified!
Had a total hip replacement with Dr Blythe in October after suffering for many years. From the start of my visits, I found Dr Blythe to be very compassionate, helpful and humorous, which helped me feel at ease . I am very happy with the surgery and feel like I have a new lease of life. Thanks again highly recommended 👍
Thank you so much Dr Blythe for you excellent treatment, as an 85yr old, you gave me confidence to go ahead with my total knee replacement and thanks to your expertise I am looking forward to pain free walking. You were caring, friendly fully outlined every detail of my procedure, answered my questions. You are the best. A special thank you to Alison your friendly receptionist.
In 2015, I was referred to Dr. Blythe by my GP after suffering a meniscal tear in my right knee. Having never undergone surgery before, I was understandably nervous. However, Dr. Blythe took the time to thoroughly explain why surgery was the best option for my specific situation. There was never any pressure to go ahead with the procedure, and the entire process was clearly outlined, which helped alleviate my fears. After surgery, I was up and walking the same day, and within two weeks, I was back at work. Fast forward to 2025, and I found myself dealing with what I believed to be a meniscal tear in my left knee. Given the excellent care I received from Dr. Blythe in 2015, I didn’t hesitate to seek his services again. After a smooth and virtually pain-free surgery, I made a full recovery in just 10 days and couldn’t be happier with the results. I’d also like to extend my gratitude to Dr. Blythe’s admin team for their prompt and helpful responses to all my inquiries and emails. I highly recommend Dr. Blythe for anyone needing orthopaedic care.
I have had 2 hip replacements 2019 & 2024 Both done by Dr Murray Blythe Joondalup. Dr Blythe is very friendly, kind & caring. From start to finish on both surgeries I was looked after & given all the information I needed for surgery. Both hip replacements were without any issues at all. I would highly recommend Dr Blythe I would like to mention Ally at reception. Ally has mastered the art of anything & everything that’s needed to get you on the operating table & then further appointments & Xrays etc for post op appointments. She has a busy job. & she does it well. Thankyou Dr Blythe & Ally Jan
I had a Total Hip Replacement in November 2024, and would like to thank Dr Blythe for his excellent work and professionalism. Every part of my experience has been marked by kindness and efficiency. The staff in his Rooms and the staff at St John of God, Mt Lawley, have excelled in making my recovery quick and achievable. I would recommend and thank Dr Blythe and his team for their excellent treatment.
I rate Dr Blythe very highly. My right knee replacement surgery was performed by him with the greatest of care and there were no complications and there was very little pain if any. I now have more bend in my knee than before the surgery. I also previously had a broken femur and later a leg lengthening procedure as the result of a motor cycle accident that had resulted in the formation of bone callus around the break. Dr Blythe dealt with this irregular bone formation and because of this the operation was not a of a routine nature and took longer than normal. The result was a very successful operation and a straightening of what was previously a bowed leg and I am now walking without pain with my new knee joint replacement.
I had a total hip replacement performed by Dr. Murray Blythe, January 2025. I received outstanding care and post op follow up for which I am very grateful. Obviously recuperation varies from patient to patient but after five weeks I am now able to return to work. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Blythe and his Administrator Ally. They are simply the best.
I had A knee replacement, it is now week 6, i can say I'm like brand new. I highly recommend doctor Murray Blythe and his team. I'd like like to say how professional they are from the receptionist to the surgery and especially looking after me. Thank you so much team. Sonney Andela
After 15 years living with worn out hips, Dr Blythe performed 2 hip replacements . The result is amazing. My once active life has been completely restored. Thank you to Murray , Ally and all the surgery team .
Things are starting to catch up to me, so I decided to get some servicing done. Bone spurs and clawed toes on one foot were my issues. My feelings on the interaction with Murray are, he gives you all options available and takes time to make sure you completely understand the dynamics of the operation and are comfortable with the agreed decision made by both parties on the path to be taken. His team is great. Ally on the front desk is polite and helpful, hospital staff were great. We are very fortunate to live in Aus and have access to this level of healthcare. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone requiring a skilled orthopaedic surgeon.
Here I am, at 72 years old, 6 weeks post op with two brand new knees and things could not be better for me. I have no pain, no restrictions on my activities and just a bit of stiffness to get past, albeit I'm just a smidge slower than I used to be. Murray is a great surgeon and has given me a new outlook on my life with his easy manner, sense of humor and of course skill in the theatre. Understandably the first two weeks were hard going but I turned the corner in week three and since week 4 have had almost no restrictions on what I wanted to challenge myself to do. Thank you very much Murray and I have been and will continue to recommend you to my friends for the ortho surgeries that you do
Dr Murray Blythe will always be my 1st choice of orthopaedic surgeon, I had my bunions operated on, before surgery he explained the whole process, pre and post op care. Took into account my fitness level and my work. Gave me time to think it out before proceeding. (Which didn't take me long as I had full confidence in him!) I proceeded with better results than I expected. Dr Blythe is very Jovial, compassionate, professional and reassuring Surgeon. I have since recommended him to my friends who required surgery for knee replacements with the same experience as I had 100% happy patients. A Brilliant Surgeon. Not forgetting g his Reception Tea. Who go out of there way to help you in any way they can. Very patient Team. Thank you Dr Murray Blythe and your Wonderful Team. Ann Marie Potts

Total Knee Replacement After suffering for the last few years with chronic Arthritis to my right knee Dr Murray Blythe performed knee surgery (Right Total Knee) February this year (2025).

After 14 previous knee operations, I'm on my last changes as far as what can be done. I was recommended to see Dr Murray Blythe for a revision of a knee replacement received elsewhere in 2020 and I'm so glad that i did. Mine has always been a complex injury and Dr Blythe and his staff worked with me to obtain what I believe to be the best outcome that I could ask for. Dr Blythe is meticulous and thorough in his procedures and his service and aftercare is second to none. I definitely recommend his services!!!
Dr. Murray Blythe is an absolutely amazing surgeon. I was dealing with severe pain from arthritis, and thanks to him, I’ve now had successful fusion surgeries on both my feet , my left foot recently . He truly is a master craftsman – the results have been life-changing, and I couldn’t be more grateful for his skill and care. The whole experience has been made even better by the fantastic Alison on reception absolutely outstanding – she keeps everything running smoothly, from booking appointments to follow-ups, always with a friendly and professional approach. I can’t recommend Dr. Blythe and his team highly enough. If you’re looking for an expert in orthopaedic care, this is the clinic to go to
Dr Blythe was recommended by my GP. The whole process ran smoothly from the first time I walked into the clinic to walking out today. I can’t Thank Murray Blythe and his team enough for the friendly and professional conduct. My recovery went without a hitch and minimal pain. I truly have a new lease on life again! 😊
Dr Murray Blythe is an amazing surgeon, he is confident and positive, extremely easy to talk to and explained the process for the THR surgery and recovery in a way that gave me the confidence to go ahead with the operation. I am so grateful to my GP for referring me to his practice for my total hip replacement and I would not hesitate for a moment in recommending Dr Blythe and Ally for their support and efficiency.
What can I say Dr Murray Blythe is an exceedingly excellent knee replacement surgeon, I love his old fashioned bed side manner he is always happy and explains everything to you about the operation. His follow up post op appointments are also a pleasure to attend. I would highly recomend Dr Blythe for a knee replacement.
My wife recently had a total knee replacement with Murray. The pre and post operative interactions with him and his team have been excellent and her recovery has been nothing short of brilliant. We would recommend his expertise to anyone contemplating orthopaedic surgery.
I went for my 6 week post-op appointment today following Total knee replacement surgery. I first saw Dr Blythe around 5 years ago and was advised I needed a TKR. By my own choice I delayed having surgery. Since recontacting Dr Blythe’s rooms this year it has been a very smooth process. The staff are all very helpful and professional. Dr Blythe has a very calm friendly demeanor and a sense of humor. I felt listened to every step of the way and had a clear understanding of what to expect on the day of and following the surgery. I can honestly say that I couldn’t be happier with the treatment I received or the results. I wish I had gone ahead with it 5 years ago! Thank you so much Dr Blythe.
Could not have asked for a better Surgeon. Very jovial and very helpful, make you comfortable from the first consultation. Great service from his team. My wife had a full knee replacement two months ago and what an awesome job he has done. Dr Blythe is a true professional, down to earth, easy to talk to and caring. I would highly recommend Dr Murray, without any hesitation. Thanks again Dr Murray .
From my first visit with Murray to my last yesterday for 12 months, I have to say I enjoyed each and every visit. Murray made me feel at ease with his jovial manner and open honest opinions. I am now 6 weeks out from TLKR and extremely happy with my results. Every step of my procedure was explained fully, no questions were left unanswered. Bedside manner was a breath of fresh air from Murray and his team. Allison at reception was always helpful with any request made by me. Thank you so much for all your care.
Surgery 24/6/2025 Joondalup Hospital I had my knee replacement surgery with Dr Blythe, I am 6 weeks post operation. When I originally went to see him, he discussed all options, including pain management. I was so impressed that he didn't push me towards surgery on the first visit, I respected that and it gave me time to be sure of my final decision to go ahead with surgery. Being my first time, it was a daunting process but Dr Blythe was reassuring, professional, very efficient and had a sense of humour, which suited my personality. I felt I was in good hands, I was never in much pain, my fast recovery has been amazing. I put that down to a fantastic surgeon, who knows his stuff. I'm very thankful to him and his team, especially Ali, who is super effecient and patient, nothing is too much trouble. I would highly recommend Dr Blythe
Dr Blythe provided expert knowledge and kindness at a time of need. Thank you!
I could not have asked for a better surgeon. Murray did a brilliant job on my hip replacement. I have a life again.
Dr Murray Blythe is a wonderful surgeon he recently operated on my knee repair to meliscus I’ll be staying in touch with him for future knee replacement
Had a total hib replacement opperation with Dr Blyth now six weeks after and very happy with the results.
Dr Blythe is a fantastic orthopaedic surgeon. A great bedside manner and thurough. Well recommended.
Thank you Murray Blythe for taking such good care of me, after extensive damage to my ankle, Murray was able to get me walking again, it's a slow recovery, but your professionalism as a orthopedic surgeon, bedside manner and sense of humor has got me through the worst, today was my last visit 5 months of care, and always welcome to contact you if I have issues with the ankle down the track👌thanks to Ali too, you are a very good receptionist, 👌its a great team Sandra de Roo
My wife has had a bunion and two toes operated on by Dr Blythe and she could not be more satisfied with his Bedside manner and his show of respect for her, I would highly recommend Dr Murray Blythe to anyone .
My knee replacement was a success. It has allowed me to have a normal life. I can even chase my grandkids and back to playing Softball. Thanks to Dr Murray
My father had a very damaged hip through bone degradation and we have been very happy with Dr Blythe’s manner, the way he kept us informed, the outstanding work he did on a difficult operation and his dedication to ensuring the hospital supported his vision of giving my father a pain free life. Very grateful to Murray
Fantastic personable surgeon with equally brilliant staff. Ally the practice manager epitomises effective communication and has a sunny personality. The results of my total hip replacement have given me back my life. I can't thank Murray and his team enough.
Just had Dr Blyth carry out Arthroscopic knee surgery and have to admit his explanation was comforting and post surgery my knee had never been better. Also his receptionist Alison was very helpful with booking appointments and hospital bookings. Have already recommended him to other people.
I found the administration staff both courteous and instructive; all information regarding admission was prompt and accurate. Dr Blythe was very professional while maintaining an excellent rapport. His explanations were very reassuring and I felt I was included with respect in every part of the process. Post operative care was comprehensive and the outcome was a much greater range of mobility than I had hoped for. Highest recommendation.
My husband had his knee replacement surgery in October 2022. 12 months on he is going great. Murray Blythe's surgery has made both our lives so much better. Considering he is in his 80's and not complaining about the pain. Thank you so much 👍
My sincere thanks to an excellent surgeon. Murray is not only an excellent surgeon but a true personable gentleman who genuinely cares about his patients. My revision TKR is responding well and in a most timely manner. Also thanks to a highly efficient And delightful all-rounder receptionist and office manager in Ally makes the experience so professional.
Dr Blythe is down to earth, easy to talk to, professional and caring. His receptionist Allison is so competant and organised and helped things run smoothly. I had a hip replacement and was quite anxious but Murray and his team at Joondalup Health Campus were amazing and made the whole experience very smooth and their care was second to none. Within the hospital everyone had a very high regard towards Dr Blythe which was also reassuring when you are having major surgery. I had a second surgery that Dr Blythe also did. Exceptional treatment.
I recently underwent Morton Neuroma surgery with Dr. Murray Blythe, and I couldn't be more pleased with the entire experience. From the initial consultation to the post-operative care, Dr. Blythe is exceptional. Dr. Blythe demonstrated a high level of expertise and professionalism. He took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure, address all my concerns, and ensure I was comfortable every step of the way. He made me feel confident and at ease with the surgery. The surgery itself was a success, and my recovery has been smooth. Dr. Blythe's skill and precision are evident in the results, and I am already experiencing significant relief from the pain I had been enduring for so long. I highly recommend Dr. Murray Blythe to anyone in need of an Orthopaedic Surgeon. His dedication to patient care and his surgical expertise are truly outstanding. Thank you, Dr. Blythe, for giving me my mobility and quality of life back! -RAFAH RIFAAT 13-07-2024
I had my first hip replaced by Dr Murray Blythe in 2017 & the 2nd hip 8 weeks ago. Both total pain free success stories. The whole process was informative & efficient with care & great follow up. Dr Blythe was recommended to me by a fellow dancer 💃🏻 who advised me he was up to date using the newer frontal incision technique… with less muscle damage & quicker healing. Dr Blythe is not only a great surgeon, he is also personable & treats you like you really matter. The first hip was scary but he put me at ease with his friendly manner. Thsnkyou for giving me my pain free life back DrBlythe.
Murray Blythe is the real deal, he exudes confidence and I knew from 2 minutes into our first meeting that he was the right choice for my hip replacement. I like his direct manner and banter and Alison his Office manager is the same, which is why the practice works so well. I have just seen Murray for my post op 3 month follow up. I am going great, back at work - pain free and not limping about and very greatful for his skills and persona. I am also equally greatful to Alison who allows Murray to do his orthapedic Magic by dealing with the " Office stuff " scheduling etc. 200 percent recommend Team Murray Blythe
My husband has just had his 12 month review with Dr. Blythe after successful double knee replacement . There's no guarantee with any surgery but having all the facts, a competent personable surgeon and kind caring team has given him a pain free retirement. He listened to the pre and post op advice did what was asked and the results speak for themselves. You realise after this type of surgery the calibre of the surgeon, thank you Dr. Blythe.
I recently had ankle surgery with Dr Murray Blythe Orthopaedic Surgeon at Joondalup Health Campus and am extremely happy with the outcome. I have minimal pain at Day 14 and at post op, Day 10 Dr Blythe explained everything he had done surgically and showed me photos of the treated areas. I have found Dr Blythe to be extremely professional at all times and he has a warmth and friendliness that allows you to ask all the questions without feeling pressured. I can highly recommend him to anyone who requires foot and ankle orthopaedic surgery. Also his Secretary Ally is amazing and very efficient. Thank you both.
My sincere thanks go out to Dr Murray Blythe for the awesome job he has done on both my hips. I was so impressed with my out come that I have highly recommended him to a few of my friends who needed their hips or knees done. Many thanks Murray you’re one hell of a surgeon and you make your patients feel at ease. I would also like to thank Allison the secretary for always being so friendly when ever I have been to the consult room.
I have had two hip replacements with Dr Murray Blythe over the past two years and have been very, very happy with the whole process and the outcome that it has achieved. I am very grateful that I am no longer in any pain in either hip. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr Blythe and his surgery to anyone and in fact I have recommended Dr Blythe to my brother who also needs a hip replacement.
I have just had my three months check-up for a total hip replacement by Dr Murray Blythe. I could not be more grateful with absolutely every aspect of this procedure... I am back to my previous level of fitness, which I had not thought possible six months ago. Dr Blythe had been highly recommended by my GP; not only did he do an excellent surgical job, but I found him to be a very easy-going person, quite approachable and very clear and thorough when explaining the procedure. I have no hesitation in recommending Dr Blythe. His secretary Ally was also very efficient and helpful with the administrative side and attended to our needs in a very professional manner.
I am very happy and pleased with results of my hip surgery. After only a few days I was up and moving with no arthritic pain. I have just reached the 3 month mark and I am out walking free, on occasions trotting some 30 metres or so. At 79 years of age I was carrying my right hip from accomodating the pain - not now. I have no hesitation in recommending Dr. Murray Blythe for hip surgery. A very relaxed, communicative person who obviously loves his profession. He is thorough with his explanation of the surgery procedure, reassuring my needs. A very pleasant man who has a very thorough receptionist lady on the front desk. Thank you doctor and your team of professionals for the manner in which you dealt with my surgery. No hesitation in recommending Dr. Murray Blythe.
We found Murray to be a completely down to earth, compassionate, and knowledgeable in finding that I had arterial problems and had this not been detected and referred on, my ankle fusion would not have been successful. Also because of the intense pain I was experiencing, Murray was able to expedite my surgery. His follow up appointments have been informative and enjoyable. 6 months down the track I am completely pain free, and full weight bearing. I could not recommend Dr. Murray Blythe highly enough for any procedure that would he would recommend.
I had knee replacement surgery with Murray Blythe 6 weeks ago after he was highly recommended by my GP. I was delighted with his friendly demeaner and down to earth attitude. He has a great beside manner that immediately put me at ease, while keeping me well informed of my surgery details and recovery timeline. My surgery was scheduled for January, however I contracted covid and was unable to keep my original date. Nothing was too difficult for Ally, his receptionist, as she worked around an already busy surgery schedule and my holiday commitments, to rebook my surgery. I was incredibly grateful she managed to find a timely alternative date. Murray’s theatre team were brilliant, and I felt very relaxed before my procedure. His visit after surgery made me feel comfortable that I’d made the correct decision and he let me know my surgery was textbook, and what I could expect in the next few weeks. 6 weeks on, I’m so happy with my recovery and Murray’s can do, positive attitude which suits my proactive return to my exercise regime and activities. I believe he reads his patients very well. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Murray to friends and family, and if I needed further surgery, I’d definitely return to Murray.
Dr Murray Blythe did an amazing Total Hip Replacement surgery, on my right hip, 7 weeks ago. My recovery has been excellent, way better than my expectations, so I am very thankful. I was walking without my walker, 2 weeks after surgery, & now I am walking normally, & completely pain free,...for the first time in years. From my first consult with Dr Blythe, I was made to feel very comfortable, & confident in his suggested surgery, which he explained to me in "easy to understand" language, which put me at ease. I can't recommend him highly enough,.....& I will definitely be going back to him,...for my left hip replacement.
Good surgeon and office staff were very helpful
I wouldn't reccommend this one for anyone. Don't get extra stress when you need proper treatments and supports by choosing this doctor.
I had hip replacement surgery 3 weeks ago and I am over the moon with the results thank you to to everyone involved in my surgery and my recovery ❤️🩹
I was well look after from start to finish with my Knee Surgery he answered all my questions even the silly ones and I must say all his staff were lovely and very helpful
had left hip replacement Tuesday.. sitting at home Thursday full weight bearing and amazed at technology Dr Blythe uses Highy recommended for expertise and care..Allison his PS is awesome
I found Dr Murray Blyth to be such pleasant down to earth person, The care I had before during and after my operation to replace my left hip was first class and of course all of his team, Dr Murray went out of his way to make sure I was well cared for , I would not hesitate to recommend him as I have done to friends and family, Once again Dr Blyth thank you so much for making my life pain free.
Had plate put in my big toe to straighten it and hammertoe fixed was pleased with the surgery.Murray explained everything to detail before the operation ,was pleased with the results.Told Murray I will be back to see him next year with my knee replacement.
I am not Dr. Murry Blythe's patient, my wife is. Thank you Murry for the kind, compassionate care you have shown my wife. In the recent past she has been in incredible pain and unable to sit in a car. 11 out of 10 pain levels, if you have ever sat with your wife while she screams and writhes in pain you will know why I am so grateful to Murry. Thanks to you and your receptionists caring nature and treatment we can again have a liveable life. I can never repay to you for that which you have given us.
How can a professional like Dr Blythe, suggest to us to find another Surgeon to our face, purely based on one sided complaint from his staff instead of considering my husband as his patient, half way under his care, due to his medical condition and needing the 2nd stage surgery to be completed by him?? Dr Blythe didnt even ask our side of story first about what happened? He just decided to accuse us based on the staff complain and start telling us if we dont like his service, we can find another surgeon, just out of the blue? We didnt even have any intention of looking elsewhere nor did we give him any complaints whatsoever. He put us in place! Wowwwww, what is going on here?? Seems like Humanity and Professionalism has gone out the window?! As in previous reviews on this page (not from us), we have to agree that it is about time that Dr Blythe's receptionist should find another job. In saying this, this is a healthcare setting where you need to have lots of compassion in dealing with people / clients that have different needs and circumstances. You would expect someone as a receptionist to be capable of showing some empathy and respect towards the clients, rather than giving you a look of disgust at the workplace when she is not interested in your requirements, and cant accept any input / discussions. We definitely WOULD NOT RECOMMEND this practice to anyone !!! Eventhough we are in need of his help, only half way treated, it doesn't mean they can just devalue and belittle us like this! We have self-pride. Also confident of a good solution out of my husband's condition elsewhere. In our opinion, there must be plenty of other more ethical and professional Orthopaedic Surgeons in Perth that we / other people can go to.
Firstly I was under the care of different Orthopaedic-Surgeon; I had RTHR surgery on 23rd Aug 2022 with him, unfortunately was having infection 3 weeks post-op. Then got 2 clean-up surgeries with no luck, as I was still infected. So I decided to try another Surgeon and found Dr Blythe to help me to reach the end of this long journey. To make it clear, Dr Blythe agreed to take on my case from my Request NOT the request of my previous Surgeon. Things started pleasingly, he advised that 2 stages of revision surgery was required. Long story short, 1st surgery to remove the infected hip was done in Nov 2022. Left me with no right hip, a spacer only (non weight bearing) for these last 3 months. It is definitely has its own struggle to my daily life activities, continuous pain, heaps of pain medications, no income, and mental battle too. Fast forward to 21st February, 2023: supposed to be the final surgery day! But at last minute, the surgery got cancelled due to a rash (Had done my pre-op prep and was ready to be wheeled to the surgery room). Of course I was devastated with this unexpected moment, and instead of him giving little time to explain things to me (when I was down), didnt understand a rash could cancel the surgery that I have been hoping for, I was wondering what's next, what to do, where we go from here etc etc, he just gave me a pat on the back and left. I decided to call his receptionist asking if I can see him for further information before I left the hospital. But I was told that he was busy whole day that day and told me to just go home. I insisted to the hospital staff that I will not leave until I can see and talk to him, he finally saw me a couple of hours later. Saw him next on 28th Feb, 2023 to discuss about my rash, planning things related to my rash and to find out how the surgery could be rebooked. Seems to me I was asking too many questions?? because He told me: He has spent too much time talking to me explaining things related to my case, and telling me that I am not his only client and all this time spent with me was Rubbish, WOW !! As far as I know, I thought you suppose to ask questions that you are not sure about, during your consultation right? Including time frame etc. Considering I also been having a long and rough journey. Is it Rubbish? He may say I am not his only client, but at that moment, I decided: He is NOT the only Surgeon !! Adding to this, I found the receptionist to be patronising in attitude, zero compassion & quite rude. Even when requesting a letter for my Employer and or to my Insurance company, seemed to be a major issue for her, when finally she emailed them to me, they were always only an attachment with no body letter / correspondence manner to explain things whatsoever. Through this case, I definitely believe when people say: Emotional Intelligence (EQ) is a way of recognizing, understanding and choosing how we think, feel and act. In other words, IQ is nothing without EQ. And Not All of Us Has the EQ -
You need to work on showing better compassion to patients, and please check in on how your reception have been treating your patients. Absolutely terrible. I am very sure there are other professional Orthopaedic Surgeon teams in Perth that would be more empathetic and care of your needs as a patient.
I was referred to Dr Blythe by a friend of a work colleague who is a podiatrist. I presented to Dr Blythe with an arthritic big toe on my left foot. He offered a few suggestions, one of which was a new procedure whereby he inserts a washer (cativa) between the joint to replace the worn cartilage. As both my toes were affected, I asked to have the procedure on both toes at the same time. He refused stating that it would hinder my recouperation. Two years ago, I returned to have a full knee replacement. Before the procedure he referred me to other alternatives. Partial knee replacement and cortisone injections. I opted for a full knee operation. The operation went as planned and much to everyone’s surprise, including myself, I was released from hospital with 48 hours of the procedure. I recently returned (9 weeks ago) to have my other toes repaired. Dr Blythe has always been professional and brutally honest with his assessment. He has an almost comical bedside manner which can detract from his exemplary surgical skill set. I would thoroughly endorse Dr Blythe and his team for any orthopaedic procedure and have nothing but praise for them.
Fantastic surgeon, my foot was basically hanging off and 2.5mnths after Murray put me back together I was walking around without crutches. He was very direct with what to expect and I expect the people putting in bad reviews ( not that there's many) are just difficult clients, I honestly think it's disgusting that these brats act like victims and talk negatively about a man who literally fixes people for a living.
Dr Blythe’s receptionist has taken more than 8 days to provide an appointment for an initial consultation with Dr Blythe. At the time of writing this review, I’m still without an appointment for my injury. Either this guy earns too much money, or his receptionist needs to look for a new job. It’s a shame because my GP highly recommend Dr Blythe to me, but I’m yet to work out why?? 6/2/23 - received a telephone call by appointment by Dr Blythe stating he could not provide surgery advice due to this review being posted and that I pose too much of a risk as I’m likely to complain in the event that surgery doesn’t go as planned. To say this is disappointing is an understatement. Perth has plenty of great orthopaedic surgeons, I wouldn’t recommend this one.
Very comfortable to recommend Dr Blythe. I saw two specialists for guidance on recommended course of action before deciding who and how to proceed. Dr Blythe provided a good level of detail on the procedure, including any complications – of which there was none. Picture included with this feedback of the operation undertaken. My recovery is 4+ weeks ahead of schedule. This could be attributed to the quality of the procedure and guidance on post operative care. Pricing for the initial consultation, operation, and follow up has been competitive. Flexibility in location for the operation and any differences in costs was greatly appreciated. Thank you.
I recently had knee Surgery and through the process of consultation and the Surgery I found Dr Blythe asked all the right questions and gave me a huge amount of information that would help me through the process. Dr Blythe gave a reassuring confidence through knowledge and yes.. some humour! A great outcome was achieved ! Thankyou Dr Blythe and your team for a job well done.
My wife was first referred to Dr Blythe about 61/2 yrs ago by our GP for her hips. At that time her right hip was giving a lot of pain. X-Ray showed her left was worse but no pain. Had her right hip done in Joondalup. Recovery was very quick with no problems. Found Dr Blythe and team very friendly and helpful no complaints. 6 yrs later have just had her left hip done as it was painful. This time in Hollywood. Can not believe how quickly she recovered this time. Walking with a “stick” after 4 days. She is very very happy with the end result. A friend in seeing this is now getting his hip seen to by Dr Blythe. Again Dr Blythe and receptionist (Alison) where very helpful and friendly. Would recommend Dr Blythe to friends.
The first time I had contact with Murray Blythe was a few years back when my mother (then in her late 80s) had an emergency repair of her knee replacement, which had come totally apart. Murray went to great length investigating what would be the best solution, contacting my mother`s former surgeon and discussing it with other collegues. He even rang me from theater to inform me that the operation had been successful. A few years later I needed a hip replacement and had been referred to another orthopedic surgeon. That surgeon (not Murray) placed me on a waiting list (I am a public patient), where I hung around for almost 3 years (Covid also happened in the meantime). My GP then referred me to Murray Blythe and the healing in many ways started. Firstly he promised to operate as soon as "Covid" would make it possible and then I experienced being cared for in the best way possible. There were some minor complications in hospital (not Murray`s fault) where he helped more then I could have hoped for. The after-care was thorough and faultless. I travelled soon after overseas and enjoyed my new hip climbing mountains and stairs with no problems whatsoever. I know Murray as caring, polite, humerous and professional surgeon and would not hesitate to recommend him any time. His secretary, Alison, is a lovely person, who made me always feel welcome and looked after. She is polite, friendly and also very efficient, which I personally appreciate a lot. For me they are a team I have always been looking forward to see and be cared for.
After many years of pain, which affected my mobility, I had a right knee (total replacement) back in August 2022, then left knee (total replacement) in March 2023. I would highly recommend Murray Blythe to anyone considering this type of surgery. Murray was very professional in all my dealings with him. He is easy to communicate with and listens to any concerns with empathy and understanding. His secretary Ali has been a pleasure to deal with, always going that extra mile to make things happen. Thankyou to both Murray and Ali for helping me to keep doing the things I enjoy in my retirement years.
Dr Blythe did a knee replacement for my husband three months ago and the results are amazing. He has full movement again and little or no pain. The whole process was made easier as Dr Blythe and his team are both professional and caring. Dr Blythe is very easy to talk to and answers all your questions in a friendly and straightforward manner. We would highly recommend Dr Blythe to anyone requiring an orthopaedic surgeon.
In March 2023 I had a hip replacement performed by Dr. Murray Blythe and I cannot speak highly enough about the level of his professionalism and easy caring manner. From the initial consultation to the post-operative follow-up, every aspect of my experience was excellent. A shoutout also goes to Ally at the front desk who did a wonderful job organising the admin side of things. Her efficiency made the process seamless. I highly recommend Dr Blythe to anyone in need of an Orthopaedic Surgeon and thanks to him I’m now back to a pain free active life.
I had a full knee replacement 3 months ago, and am very happy with the outcome. I found Murray to be very personable, and more relatable and down to earth than many specialists I have dealt with. I would strongly recommend him to anyone considering this operation. I also found his receptionist Alison was always helpful and efficient.
I had the good fortune to be referred to Murray Blythe for a total knee replacement.A better or more professional experience or outcome i could not have wished for .The knee ,which is the star of the show, is fantastic, full movement walking normally and this after 6 weeks .I was however off crutches after 10 days! A scar barely noticeable .Murray and his staff are total professionals and you can be sure that I will be returning to have the second replacement in the future .
I would highly recommend Murray. He is an excellent orthopaedic surgeon and has a warm, personable manner. From my first consultation to theatre to post op. I felt in safe hands, reassured and relaxed. I like details to be explained to me and they were, and my questions were all answered clearly and fully. I've also been impressed by Murray's staff who are highly competent and friendly professionals and the interaction between them and Murray shows a happy and a strong team. .
In 2018 I thought I needed a knee replacement but after seeing Dr Murray Blythe he advised me to wait and with carefully guided injections I managed to stave it off until March 2023. I only waited one week for my first appointment followed by xrays and an MRI very soon after. I nominated my own operation date as March 23rd. 3 days later I was discharged then after another 3 days I fell landing full weight on my operated leg. Dr Blythe saw me immediately and sent me for an xray and results were already waiting when I returned straight after to his office. Except for jarring and severe bruising there was no damage to the new knee. Dr Blythe's receptionist Alison is very dedicated to her job and is extremely efficient. I found her to be very friendly and helpful on all of my visits. Today I had my 6 weeks check up and all appears to be normal and on track for this stage. I would recommend anyone contemplating a knee replacement to consider using Dr Murray Blythe who is not only well experienced but also has an amazing bedside manner. He is always friendly and willing to listen. A pleasure to have used him for my orthopaedic surgeon and I would certainly use him again should I need to.
I have been dealing with Murray Blythe for approx 5 months awaiting to have a complete knee replacement this eventually took place 4 weeks ago. I have to say that he and his staff have been excellent since day one, the information that has been given to me has always been both timely, informative and professional My knee, post operation has been good and is healing well and I am still receiving post OP appointments with Murray and updates from his reception staff. Sincere thanks to all at the practice and special thanks to you Mr Blythe.
Dr. Murray Blythe replaced my right hip over 12 mths ago & I couldn't be happier. He was thorough with all the information & even delivered it with a touch of humour, which really put me at ease. The surgery went well & I was back living my best life in no time. I recently had to return to see Murray with an unrelated problem & Murray was wonderful arranging treatment that has improved my pain immensely, he then contacted me days later to check on my progress. If you're looking for a great surgeon, look no further than Murray Blythe. I highly recommend him.
I have had two surgeries performed by Murray & can honestly say, he was a Godsend to me. First was in layman's terms, a foot reconstruction, no other surgeon wanted to touch it. Murray warned it would never be perfect but the pain I was in meant I would try absolutely anything. This surgery was done in June 2020 & fast forward to today, the foot is at a minimum, 80% better. A success in my mind. Next time I saw Murray was August 2021 about my knee. Being 50 at the time, we discussed whether a full knee replacement was a viable option as I am considered a bit on the young side for this surgery. I spent a few months deliberating it & in January 2022 went back to Murray & asked for him to do it. The following month, I was in hospital and the operation was done. A year later & I am a completely new person - mobile, pain free & incredibly happy. I have referred my daughter to Murray & as I am an aged care case manager, I have had the pleasure of referring my clients to Murray also. Every encounter with Murray has been a pleasant one. He has a great sense of humor, always happy to listen, remembers personal details, is encouraging & supportive & makes me feel comfortable & safe. As for the reception staff, Ally is lovely, has empathy & has never made me feel anything other than welcome. Perhaps her efficiency has people misjudging her for being rude?? I don't see that though. If ever I need orthopedic advise or surgery, I won't hesitate going back to see Murray.
Super happy with Murray! Thank you so much for making my surgery run smoothly. Excellent care and information from start to finish. The care i received before during and after my procedure, was excellent. Absolutely delighted with your service, Murray is approachable and relaxed, professional and sensible , giving realistic advise to match my lifestyle. Also thank you to Alison running front of house with professionalism, efficiency and a caring attitude, helping us with our back to work plan. Nothing was too much trouble, really grateful would highly recommend .
A top professional with the right dosage of the human-being element for understanding, compassion & confidence through some tough times. Highly recommended.
He does a good job but lacks medical ethics. Bad experiences will chase clients away from you. It's 2022, Murray. Evolve along with the world.
A great surgeon with great bedside manner, who goes the extra mile, with a thorough breakdown of the procedure to be done, along with side effects that can occur, as Murray is on the mark with follow up on how the procedure went
