About me

I am a specialist knee surgeon based in Warwickshire. I have held a consultant post at the University Hospital in Coventry since 2005. My practice covers all areas of knee surgery from simple arthroscopy, ligament reconstruction, meniscal repair, meniscal transplantation, realignment osteotomy, patella stabilisation surgery, trochleoplasty and osteochondral allograft surgery through to partial knee replacement, total knee replacement and simple revision knee replacement.
I use the Zimmer Personna prosthesis for my total knee replacements and I use the Oxford Partial Knee prosthesis for my uni-compartmental knee replacements.
I am involved in knee research and regularly teach and train surgeons and give lectures at national + international meetings on knee surgery.
I regularly see patients referred by other specialist knee orthopaedic surgeons for second opinions of complex knee problems.
