About Us

Our Surgeons

Nicole Leeks

I studied Medicine at the University of Western Australia, graduating in 1989. I completed my initial intern and residency in Perth, before moving to Sydney to work with the Royal Australian Navy. I moved back to Perth in 1996 to pursue a surgical career in Orthopaedics, finishing the Advanced Surgical Training Scheme in May 2002. I developed a special interest in Paediatric Orthopaedics, and undertook a fellowship at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto in 2003-4. On returning to Australian and entering Private Practice, I subsequently developed a strong interest in Foot & Ankle surgery.

I am married, with two young children - who occupy any available time when not practicing.
