About me

I am a specialist Hip and Knee replacement Surgeon. I specialise in Daycase Hip & Knee Replacement, Inpatient Hip & Knee Replacement, Knee Arthroscopy, Meniscal repair, menisectomy surgeries. I have set up a Daycase Hip & Knee replacement service at Nuffield Tees Hospital and also at Hartlepool NHS Hospital. I have also won an award for setting up the Daycase service.

After completing my higher surgical training in North East England, I completed the highly prestigious arthroplasty fellowship at Golden Jubilee National Hospital. During this fellowship, I gained exposure to Robotic joint replacements, Computer-assisted joint replacements, Revision, and Complex joint replacements for Hip and Knee pathologies.

I have research publications in several peer-reviewed journals and have presented research papers at various National and International conferences. I am actively involved in organising teaching sessions and courses for junior doctors.

Mr Ramappa in the news:
