Dr Cameron Mackay is a highly experienced and well-regarded plastic and reconstructive surgeon who specialises in surgery of the hand and reconstructive microsurgery. Over the last 12 years Dr Mackay has treated patients with a wide variety of reconstructive problems due to trauma and malignancy. He is regularly involved in the multidisciplinary management of complex cases in association with surgeons from other specialties.

He goes to great lengths when undertaking complex and involved cases to ensure that his patients’ expectations are managed alongside their comfortability in what can often be a fraught time.

In addition to clinical medicine, Dr Mackay has continued to be involved in organisational committees and boards. In 2011 Dr Mackay was appointed to the Council of the Australian Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) and served in this position until 2018.
