About me

Damian is the Professor of Trauma and Orthopaedic surgery at the University of Warwick. He was an undergraduate at Cambridge, a medical student at Oxford, and trained at Harvard, Johns Hopkins and in Dallas in the United States.

Damian was the first clinical professor at Warwick Medical School, and led one of the largest orthopaedic research groups in the UK, developing and testing the effectiveness of new techniques, especially in hip surgery for young people. He is one of the international innovators in minimally invasive surgery in the hip, including arthroscopic (keyhole) repair of injuries, treatment of early arthritis, and the use of stem cells to repair cartilage damage. He led the most ambitious ever clinical trial of arthroscopy for hip impingement - a �3M study in 31 hospitals in UK and Australia, which was reported in the Lancet in 2018. He was the Director of Education for the International Hip Preservation Society, and built expertise in this new hip surgery across the world.

Damian is an intensely practical surgeon, working privately in Warwick and London. He has a highly specialised practice treating younger, active people with hip and groin pain, and his team has delivered the largest such service in the UK. Focusing on these problems, he treats a wide range of people including professional and recreational athletes.

Damian is also an experienced trauma surgeon, with particular expertise in the management of complex and multiple injuries. In parallel with his civilian career he has been an Army Reserve officer for 30 years. He has commanded an Infantry Battalion and a Field Hospital, and deployed on operations to lead a forward surgical group.
