Melbourne Spine Surgeon with International Expertise
Mr. Rez Rahim is a skilled Spine, Hip, and Knee Surgeon based in Melbourne. In addition to his local expertise, he has received international fellowship training in complex spine surgery. This advanced training includes minimally invasive techniques, deformity correction, hip and knee replacements, as well as advanced microscopic and endoscopic spinal surgery.
With a reputation as a compassionate and results-driven spine surgeon in Melbourne, Mr. Rahim ensures that his patients receive the most up-to-date and effective treatments. To achieve this, he works closely with multidisciplinary teams to develop personalised treatment plans, with the goal of providing long-term relief and significantly improving quality of life.
As a dedicated spine surgeon, Mr. Rahim focuses on improving outcomes for geriatric patients. After completing prestigious fellowships — including one with Professor Peter Varga in Budapest — he specialised in spinal tumor surgeries such as En-Bloc resection and sacrectomies. Furthermore, he continued to refine his expertise at the Neurosurgical Unit at Severance Hospital, Yonsei University in Seoul.
Beyond the Operating Room
Moreover, Mr. Rahim is an active researcher with multiple publications in peer-reviewed journals. He regularly presents at international conferences, contributing to the global medical community. Being fluent in English, Russian, Sinhalese, and basic Indonesian enables him to connect with patients from diverse backgrounds.
Outside of his practice, Mr. Rahim supports the ‘Foundation of Goodness’, an organization that provides education and employment opportunities to underprivileged children in Sri Lanka. This dedication to charity not only aligns with his commitment to kindness and patient care, but also reflects his strong altruistic values.
Moreover, in addition to his medical career, Mr. Rahim is a former international rugby player. Passionate about the sport, he continues to support the Wallabies. Currently residing in Berwick with his two young sons, he balances family life with his professional commitments. Notably, his ongoing charity work and fundraising efforts have earned him recognition at Buckingham Palace.
