Mr John Crawford

I am a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon practising at Spire Cambridge Lea Hospital, where I specialise in the assessment and treatment of a wide range of spinal conditions affecting both adults and children. My clinical practice is dedicated entirely to spinal surgery alongside the management of general orthopaedic trauma, allowing me to deliver highly focused and expert care for patients across Cambridge and the surrounding region.

My training began at The Royal London Hospital, followed by specialist orthopaedic training in London, Cambridge and East Anglia. I further developed my expertise through an advanced spinal fellowship at a leading spinal unit in Brisbane, Australia where I gained extensive experience in both paediatric scoliosis surgery and adult spinal surgery.

At Spire Cambridge Lea Hospital I offer a comprehensive range of spinal procedures, including lumbar discectomy, spinal fusion and corrective surgery for scoliosis and complex spinal deformities. I am also experienced in managing spinal trauma, fractures and spinal tumours. My aim is to relieve pain, restore mobility and improve quality of life using evidence-based techniques and modern surgical approaches.
