About me
Mr Barkatali is a Consultant Specialist Knee Surgeon with extensive expertise across all areas of knee surgery. In 2017, he established The Knee Clinic Manchester with the aim of delivering the highest standard of care to patients requiring knee procedures. Working alongside a team of highly trained anaesthetists and medical professionals, the clinic is driven by a commitment to world-class, cutting-edge treatment and exceptional patient outcomes.
Over the course of his career, Mr Barkatali has performed thousands of successful procedures, consistently achieving outstanding clinical results and receiving excellent patient feedback. His specialist interests include sports-related knee injuries, knee replacement surgery, joint preservation techniques (such as osteotomy), patello-femoral disorders, and biological treatments including platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy and cartilage regeneration.
The Knee Clinic Manchester is recognised for pioneering advanced surgical approaches, including the Quad Tendon ACL reconstruction (with the highest number of cases in the UK), biologics and joint preservation strategies, and Mako Robotic Total and Partial Knee Replacement surgery.
Mr Barkatali's surgical philosophy is founded on teamwork, clear communication, and consistently high standards. He is dedicated to tissue preservation and anatomical restoration, with a strong focus on functional recovery and enhanced rehabilitation�enabling patients to return to their desired level of activity safely and efficiently. He is committed to delivering an exceptional patient journey from initial consultation through to full recovery, integrating innovative technologies and personalised care pathways to support long-term joint health.
Education & Training
Mr Barkatali graduated from the University of Edinburgh Medical School and taught anatomy at the University of Oxford before completing his surgical training through the Manchester Orthopaedic Training Programme. He undertook a specialist knee fellowship in Germany and, in 2014, was appointed Consultant Knee Surgeon at Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust. Since then, he has developed a modern, forward-thinking private knee surgery practice, incorporating the latest techniques and innovations.
Research & Teaching
In addition to his clinical work, Mr Barkatali holds Honorary Senior Lectureships at both the University of Manchester and Manchester Metropolitan University. He maintains active involvement in academic research and regularly presents at national and international conferences, engaging with global experts in knee surgery and medical innovation.
Mr Barkatali is also passionate about education and is frequently invited to teach and demonstrate surgical techniques at major training courses in the UK and abroad, contributing to the development of future orthopaedic surgeons.
