Back pain or sciatica doesn't always mean surgery.
Neuro and Spine Surgeon, Dr David Oehme from One Brain and Spine, recently joined ABC Melbourne to discuss spine health, what sciatica actually is, what causes it and when symptoms may require specialist attention.
In the interview, David explains why most cases of sciatica settle without surgery - and why the first step when experiencing back pain or sciatica is often not to panic.

Yesterday, we recognised Cancer Nurses Day.
Here at St Vincent’s Private Melbourne, we are proud to provide oncology services across three of our four campuses - East Melbourne, Fitzroy and Werribee.
Providing comprehensive cancer care across all stages – from diagnosis and treatment through to recovery and palliative care – our cancer nurses do an incredible job of providing not just excellent clinical care, but also compassion, reassurance and support to patients and their families during some of the most challenging moments of their lives.
To all of our cancer nurses, thank you for the knowledge, dedication, kindness and unwavering care you bring to so many patients and their families, each and every day. We are incredibly grateful for everything you do 💙
Middle ear infections are one of the most common childhood illnesses – especially around this time of year - but they can also affect adults 👂
Knowing the signs - such as ear pain, fever, irritability, hearing loss, ear discharge/drainage or speech delay- is important to ensure that the appropriate medical care can be provided.
Treatment often depends on the severity. In some cases, your General Practitioner may suggest a 'wait and see' approach prior to prescribing antibiotics, seeing an Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) surgeon, or in severe cases, surgery.
We sat down with Dr Bing Teh, ENT surgeon from VIC ENT HUB, to learn more about middle ear infections and some simple steps we can all take to help prevent them.

Meet Peter 👋
At 80 years young, retired bricklayer Peter became the very first patient to undergo shoulder replacement surgery using the new MAKO robotic system at St Vincent's Private Hospital Melbourne.
After a fall while on holiday in Vietnam left him living with constant shoulder pain, Peter was referred to Orthopaedic Surgeon Mr Austin Vo and underwent surgery at East Melbourne earlier this month.
Now, just weeks later, Peter is recovering well and looking forward to getting back to the things he loves most - gardening, walking and travelling. His next adventure? A month-long cruise to Hawaii this
September 🚢 🌴
From all of us here, a very big well done to Peter for being our first St Vincent's Private Hospital Melbourne shoulder MAKO robotic surgery patient. We wish you all the very best for your continued recovery and many more happy travels ahead 🙌
