about Mr Janus Schaumkel
Janus is an experienced New Zealand trained orthopaedic surgeon, specialising in:
- Robotic Total Knee Joint Replacement
- Total Hip Joint Replacement - Patient Specific Technique
- Revision Hip & Knee Joint Replacement
- Treatment of sports knee injuries
- ACL reconstruction
- Patella stabilisation
- Arthroscopic (keyhole) knee surgery
After returning from subspecialist training in the UK and Australia, he now has 16 years of experience in fulltime private practice, and has modern consulting rooms conveniently based in Greenlane, central Auckland.
Because he also consults at other clinics in greater Auckland, and being in fulltime private practice, means that he is more available for his patients, and that his patients have more flexibility to be seen when, and where, it suits them.
Janus utilises modern surgical techniques, in combination with advanced anaesthetic care and patient specific post-operative rehabilitation. Janus is currently interested in using the latest technology with state-of-the-art robotic computer-assisted knee replacement surgery, in order to improve the outcomes and benefit for his patients.
He is married with three teenaged children. He is also proud of his Tongan/German heritage and sees himself as a role model for young Pasifika people.
Janus is very personable and likes to take the time to learn and understand exactly what the patients problem is, and what their goals of treatment are. He will individualise the care and surgical treatment for each patient to optimise their care, in order to get the best result for them.
Operating privately from Kakariki, Ascot and Brightside Hospitals, Janus is an Affiliated Provider with Southern Cross Insurance and NIB.
