Bunions (Hallux Valgus) is a specific interest for Mark and he has published clinical research findings in relation to surgical and non-surgical elements of this common compliant. He has also pioneered the use of minimally invasive procedures to address common hammertoes in Australia and published outcomes research in this area.

Mark is committed to lifelong learning. He continues to actively teach and research. He has a diverse and extensive research, publication and presentation history and conducts educational workshops on a range of topics.
Mark holds surgical fellowships from Australia and the USA and is also a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons Glasgow (Podiatric Medicine Faculty).
