Saw Peter with a frozen knee due to a bucket handle tear almost four years ago. I really appreciated the information provided on his webpage prior to surgery, and the time he took to explain the procedure. The op went well, he found me a great physio near my place for recovery, and he gave me the advice I needed to avoid future interventions. Made it to my hundredth Parkrun today...
I am currently 6 weeks out from meniscus surgery with Dr Peter D’Alessandro, and my recovery has been seamless. It was always going to be Pete that I trusted above anyone else to fix my knee injury, based on the positive outcomes I have had from previous surgeries with him. He truly understands how much I value sport for both my physical and mental health. Even though he’s renowned for treating high-profile athletes, he never made me feel like "just" a broken patient in my 50s. My movement goals and love of sport were clearly just as important to him as anyone else’s. Because of that, he went above and beyond to preserve as much of my meniscus as possible, which had me up and about and meeting all my rehab targets in great time. The communication between Pete, myself and my physiotherapist has been completely in sync the whole time. Even down to his pre-op letter, outlining my options and procedure details, which ended with the genuine offer to reach out if I had any questions or concerns. Before the operation, I did have few last-minute questions, and he got back to me straight away. Knowing he was that available and present with my case, was incredibly reassuring and showed how invested he is in patient care. Following on from Pete’s incredible expertise with my surgery and guiding my physiotherapist in my rehab, I’m so excited to be doing the work and feeling strong heading into the upcoming hockey season. I can’t thank Pete and his Coastal Orthopedics team enough for the exceptional care I have received throughout this entire process. Review from 2021: I would like to acknowledge the exceptional care I received from Dr Peter D'Alessandro and the team at Coastal Orthopaedics. My three surgical experiences with Dr D’Alessandro have proven him to be a highly skilled, compassionate doctor, whose excellent surgical knowledge is matched by his post-operative follow up, clinical care and compassionate manner. I suffered an ACL rupture playing netball and after consultation with Dr D'Alessandro, I had ACLR surgery which was a complete success. My recovery went smoothly and I reached all of my milestones and goals. Unfortunately a few weeks after surgery, a traumatic workplace incident to my surgical knee caused complications. I was in a great deal of pain and upset that I had re-injured my knee. Dr D’Alessandro didn’t hesitate to see me immediately, reassure me and operate a second time, to repair the damage. Luckily my ACL was still intact. Post-operative care was exceptional and even though this was a huge setback to my ACL rehab, I never once felt on my own during my recovery. He was always present and available through emails and phone calls to answer any questions or concerns. After intense physiotherapy, continual follow ups and close monitoring of my progress he could see I was still struggling with flexion and extension. Scar tissue had set in and even though there were risks of more scar tissue returning, being best possible outcome driven, he offered me a third surgery MUA to regain my range of motion. This last surgery gave me my mobility and my life back. His strong belief in a better outcome for me, has inspired me to work hard with my rehab, to achieve my movement goals, to the point where I am fitter and stronger than I have been for 20 years. I am forever grateful to him for making that happen. His encouragement and positivity has helped me stay focused on getting back to my active lifestyle and overcome any setback. It’s not just his expertise of fixing my knee or the complexity of my surgeries– it’s much more. Dr D’Alessandro has been completely invested in all aspects of my health, well-being and lengthy recovery. His high level of professionalism and close monitoring builds complete trust and his genuine holistic care, strives to heal both the body and mind. Thank you for your exceptional care!
A huge thank you to Dr Pete De'Alessandro and his team! After rupturing three ligaments in my knee and fracturing my tibia, Pete performed a multi-ligament knee reconstruction. From the very beginning, both Pete and Jo were incredibly professional, supportive, and easy to talk to. They made a really tough time feel much more manageable. Less than a year later I have regained the strength in my leg and I'm back running and playing golf again. I’m so grateful for their care and expertise!
Dr D’Alessandro operated on my shoulder four and a half years ago and was nothing but professional. My surgery and recovery was a total success. Unfortunately in May “24” I had a work place incident resulting in a complete meniscus tear. Dr D’Alessandro and his team were outstanding,Bronwyn was amazing in organising an MRI and fitting me in to see the Professor. I have nothing but praise and gratitude for Peter and his team.

We can't thank Pete enough for his care and expertise. We were referred to Pete by another surgeon, and his knowledge and experience with Osteochondritis Dissecans is world class. Thank you Pete.
I had completely torn off my acl and pcl and countless other things damaged in my knee the future looked very grim, i had been told not many surgeons would be willing to take this on because of the complexity of it, that’s where dr Peter d’alessandro and his team stepped in, long story short it’s now been 5 months since the surgery and I am living a normal life having nearly fully recovered I can’t thank him and his team enough
Amazing surgeon- Thanks for the diligence and expertise!
I've had an amazing experience with Dr Peter D'Alessandro. I'm at 5 month post Shoulder Stabilization and Remplissage and my shoulder is significantly more stable than before the surgery. I'm not worried about dislocations when it's in vulnerable positions and my mobility and strength are almost fully back. Way more satisfied than expected thanks to Pete's amazing surgeon skills, and great Physio recommendations. I would recommend Pete to anyone that's on the fence about getting this surgery.
Completed ACL repair surgeries to both knees for my son to allow a successful return to sport. Shows genuine care, fantastic bed-side manner, great communicator and has excellent networks to assist recovery. Highly recommend
Outstanding care with Pete. Explains everything in easy to understand terminology and really cares about the best result for your patient. A great marker for Pete is everyone you talk to that has dealt with him does nothing but rave about him. It should definitely be your first port of call.
I tore my left pec (musculotendinous junction) in late may this year while bench pressing. I then started researching the internet for pec tear specialists and found a number of very good reviews of Peter D'Alessandro from Coastal Orthopaedics and how he had carried out successful repairs for this difficult injury.I met with Peter shortly afterwards and was very impressed with his experience and his passion in getting you back to doing the activities and sports you enjoy. Peter recommended surgery to repair my pec,which he carried out early june this year. I can not thank Peter enough for the surgery he performed ,currently i am gradually returning back to lifting weights and other sports and getting phiso to get back full range of motion. Also i am an older guy and very active. Peter has given me back my mobility. One of the reasons i wanted to write this review, is so others with pec tears can locate Peter as i was able to do after researching the internet. Kind Regards Dave
I had an appointment which was made 6 months ago. I waited 1 hour in the reception area, moved to the doctors room only to wait another 1/2 hour. There was no explanation of where the doctor was . Further investigation found he was in surgery, whilst I was waiting in the waiting room I did notice Peter strolling past me , which I may add was half an hour after my proposed appointment. I have never felt so worthless. Thought that I may have got a call from the surgery to try and reschedule. … I obviously am not an important enough patient to be seen. So disappointed and saddened. Not sure what to do from here as my referral came from my surgeon which will now take several months to get an appointment with him to get another referral…, 😔😔😔😔
I had a knee replacement with Coastal Orthapaedics My surgeon was Dr Perth D’Alessandro. He is a kind, compassionate person and a brilliant surgeon. I am thrilled with the results and this operation has restored my confidence.
I am not able to recommend Peter D'Alessandro and the Coastal Orthopaedics team enough. After seeing him you will always feel like you are completely informed with what is required always makes sure his patients are at ease. Peter is also always happy take time out of his busy schedule to answer questions or assist. In my opinion there is no other orthopaedic surgeon I would trust more.
As a case, I was complicated, I FIFO Internationally, short periods off, and carried rotator cuff tendon damage to both shoulders over 10 years, perhaps longer as 01 had separated completely. I selected Dr. Peter through his positive reviews, his willingness to first consult by SKYPE which was a major bonus since I was in Russia, scheduling to support my rotations and the fees meeting HBF schedule. 2 operations over 15 months, 01st major as the original tendon on 01 shoulder had retracted so far into my back it could not be recovered. Dr. Peter solution to the lost tendon was innovative and an excellent result (frankly better than the standard solution applied to the other shoulder). 6 months after the 02nd operation I have no pain in either shoulder, full flexibility in the 01st major tear, and 85% improving in the other. So good, I recommend a rotator-cuff tear just to have Dr. Peter fix it ......... great professional, great guy. Grant j Wilson
Doctor D’Alessandro gave me excellent advice and showed extraordinary care when I my badly injured my knee in a cycling accident. I am now recovered and am very grateful to him.
Following a near fatal motorcycle accident in 2015, I have undergone multiple operations including a total hip replacement and spinal surgery. These procedures were performed by different surgeons at different hospitals around Perth. Most recently I was referred to Dr Peter D’Alessandro as he specialises in ligament repair etc. I was advised that I would require multi ligament knee reconstruction (all 4 ligaments!) which is quite a large procedure, so I’ve learned. It has been a long healing process, made even longer by a femur break (after a fall) 1/2 way through recovery but as I heal it is becoming more and more apparent what an amazing job Peter has done. Dr D’Alessandro has been absolutely fantastic from the beginning. He is a very pleasant down to earth guy that is extremely knowledgeable in his field. He made me feel comfortable while being totally honest about the risks associated with such a procedure. As I mentioned above, I am no stranger to the operating theatre and can honestly say, I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Peter to anybody that is considering utilising his service. I cannot speak highly enough about him. Thank you for fixing what seemed like an unfixable knee, Peter. I am extremely greatful! Regards, Steve. B.
I do powerlifting and gym is my life, I tore my right pectorial muscle off the lateral head attachment and dr Peter D’Alessandro was willing to operate and fix it for me he explained it might be a dificult operation and he cant garantee anything but if it all goes to plan he said that i would be likely to have a full recovery and that i should be just as strong as i was before (bare in mind mine was a special case as my muscle ripped of my tendon which is very dificult to fix, it wasnt just a tore tendon.) 10 weeks down the track, i got full range of motions back, no pain, feel 110 % and even the cut he made to do the operation is neat, small, straight and hidden under the singlet line.. I cant thank him enough, one thing il add aswell: obviously operations are scary and i might have been 5000 times more scared then other people but he took this into consideration and put me to sleep before they moved me onto the surgical bed etc which made me feel alot less scared. Id recomend Dr Peter D’Alessandro to anyone but aspecialy if you need your body to function at peak again. Thanks You Dr :)
After consultation with Dr. Peter D'Alessandro, he was able to understand my concerns very well and rather than rush to surgery he was able to solve my problem due to therapy prescribed by Dr. Peter D'Alessandro. This was quite a big relieve that he took the time to seek alternative ways to resolve my problem Thanks Peter Kindest Regards.
Extremely poor surgeon with poor ethics. My father had a broken arm and he refused to see my father.
I was diagnosed with a torn left pectoral last August as a result of bench pressing a heavy load without warming up. Prior to meeting Dr D'Alessandro I was originally told that due to the location and type of tear (sternal muscle head & tendon) surgery would not be an option. Then I met Dr D'Alessandro and explained my situation to him. He examined the tear and after a few questions and some thought, decided he was prepared to book me in for surgery. He booked me in for 2 weeks later however explained there was a 50% chance things may not go as planned, making me sign a dislaimer to acknowledge that the end result may be an 'exploration' without any actual repair being done. Everything went as planned however and he really couldn't have done a better job. While the first few months were tough, Dr D'Alessandro referred me to a fantastic physio by the name of Scott Garvey and 9 months later I've regained all range of motion. I've also regained nearly all strength and size, and am heading towards a full recovery in the next 3 months. I couldn't thank Dr D'Alessandro enough for what he's done, as without him I'm very doubtful things would've turned out the way they did. I know where I'll be sending anyone I know if they ever need orthopaedic surgery. Dragan
