About me

Mr Abhijit Dey is a Consultant in Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgery, with a specialist interest in complex hip and knee disorders in children and adults. His practice encompasses the entire spectrum of lower limb problems, ranging from sports injuries requiring arthroscopic ('keyhole') reconstruction, to hip and knee arthroplasty (replacement) for degenerative diseases.

Mr Dey graduated in Medicine from the University of Cardiff in 1995 and completed his General Surgical Training in South Wales. He then completed by a two-year Clinical Research Fellowship at the WHO Collaborating Centre for Metabolic Bone Diseases at the University of Sheffield leading to the degree of Doctor of Medicine (MD). Mr Dey completed his specialist Higher Surgical Training in Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgery in the Leicester region. Thereafter, Mr Dey undertook a one-year Fellowship in Hip and Knee Arthroplasty at the Calvary Hospital in Canberra, Australia, and a six-month Fellowship in Knee Surgery and Sports Injuries at the Holland Orthopaedic and Arthritic Centre (Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre) in Toronto, Canada. Mr Dey was appointed as a Consultant in Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgery in 2009.

In Mr Dey's arthroplasty practice, he performs primary and revision ('redo') hip and knee replacements, using cemented and cementless prostheses. He offers both unicompartmental ('partial') and total joint arthroplasty depending upon the patient's needs. In his sports injuries practice, Mr Dey performs arthroscopic ligament reconstruction, cartilage and meniscal repair, and realignment procedures. His trauma practice includes the management of more challenging problems such as multiligament injuries and periprosthetic fractures.

Mr Dey was formerly the Royal College Surgical Tutor and a member of the Specialty Training Committee in Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgery. He has been a member of the Court of Examiners for the Royal College of Surgeons since 2012. He is married with three young children.
