World Physiotherapy Day – 8 September 2025

Earlier this week, we marked World Physiotherapy Day, with the theme of Healthy Ageing — focusing on preventing falls and frailty in older adults.

As an orthopaedic surgeon, I’m reminded daily of how serious falls can be for our elderly population. But I also see how physiotherapy makes a world of difference:

✨ Building strength and balance
✨ Supporting safe, active lifestyles
✨ Helping older adults maintain independence

Healthy ageing is about more than just adding years to life — it’s about adding quality to those years.

A big thank you to all the physiotherapists who continue to help our communities stay strong, mobile, and independent. 💙

GP Meeting at Mediclinic Cape Gate

👩‍⚕️👨‍⚕️ Building Stronger Connections with Our GP Network

I truly enjoyed the opportunity to connect with some of our referring general practitioners at Mediclinic Cape Gate.

It wasn’t just about academic discussions — it was about getting to know each other better and strengthening the partnerships that make such a difference in patient care.

One of the highlights for me was demonstrating the Stryker Mako Smart Robotic System for hip and knee replacements in a theatre simulation. It was exciting to see the curiosity and enthusiasm as some colleagues even tried parts of the procedure themselves — experiencing first-hand what robotic surgery is all about.

I’m deeply grateful for the collaboration and dedication of our GP colleagues. Their role in diagnosing and managing arthritis is absolutely essential, and I look forward to many more moments like this where we can learn, share, and grow together.

First Multi-Disciplinary Team Meeting

🤝✨ Stronger Together in Patient Care

CapeOrtho / Dr Johan Charilaou Incorporated proudly hosted our very first Multi-Disciplinary Team (MDT) meeting!

The evening brought together the entire care team that walks alongside our patients before and after surgery, including:

-Physiotherapists

-Occupational therapists

-Social workers

-Subacute stepdown facility members

-Nurses

-Orthotists

-Management and clinical facilitators

-General practitioners

-Dieticians

Each plays a vital role in supporting patient recovery, and I am honoured to collaborate with such a dedicated group.

During the session, I demonstrated how the Smith & Nephew CORI Robotic System is used in knee replacements. The surgical simulation gave practical insight into the procedure — empowering colleagues to better understand and support the peri-operative journey.

Together, we continue to innovate, share knowledge, and put patients at the heart of everything we do. 💙
