Melbourne Institute or Plastic Surgery

Hand Therapy

At the Melbourne Institute of Plastic Surgery, we offer a variety of surgical procedures for individuals suffering from all types of hand trauma.

Procedure Information

However, the quality of care does not stop after surgery. Our surgeons work closely with occupational therapists at the Malvern Hand Therapy group, so not only will you receive the best possible surgical treatment at our facility, but you will be well taken care of during rehabilitation as well.

Malvern Hand Therapy was founded in 2001 by Melissa Hirth and Kate Sleep, who continue working there today along with experienced therapists Angela Chu and Colleen Maloney. All therapists are clinical hand therapy specialists and are registered as Occupational Therapists with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA).
