Dr. Davey leads an orthopedic division that has established an international reputation for advanced approaches to complex joint reconstruction and minimally invasive surgery techniques. The joint replacement service (arthroplasty) at Toronto Western Hospital is one of the leading programs of its kind in Canada, specializing in complex cases and acting as a referral centre for orthopedic patients from across the country. Arthroplasty most often involves the hip or knee and is used to treat pain caused by conditions such as osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis.

Dr. Davey’s research focuses on total joint replacement of damaged hip and knee joint surfaces with artificial implants. The implants work like a normal hip or knee, allowing patients to go back to many of their regular physical activities.

Dr. Davey is Associate Professor in the Department of Surgery at U of T.
