I am a Knee and Hip Arthroplasty and Sports Knee Surgeon. I have practised as a consultant for over 17 years and have undertaken over 5,000 knee and hip joint replacements including over 450 partial knee replacements, which allow a person to function at a higher level with a more natural-feeling and functioning knee.
I am double fellowship trained in arthroplasty of knees and hip, partial knee replacements and sports knee injuries and surgery.
My area of special interest is partial knee replacements where I have published outcomes.
I am very passionate about zero tolerance in case of prosthetic joint infection among other things to achieve an optimal outcome for all my patients. I am an active listener and believe in true shared decision making with my patients. I explain and set expectations at a realistic achievable level, leading to a high percentage of my patients achieving a highly satisfying outcome as evidenced by my National Joint Registry data, Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) and patient feedback on various sites such as Doctify and I Want Great Care.
My NHS base hospital is Luton and Dunstable University Hospital NHS Trust, where I have practiced since 2016.
I am the lead for clinical audit and effectiveness, clinical governance, surgical site infection and co-ordinator of the lower limb group meetings.
I completed my undergraduate training from Magadh University, India (1991) and came to the UK in 1993 to undertake a comprehensive postgraduate training programme. I completed basic surgical training rotation at Aberdeen Hospital, Scotland and successfully passed the FRCS Ed in 1996. I completed the West Midlands Trauma and Orthopaedic higher surgical rotation (1998-2004), during which time I completed a two year part-time diploma in orthopaedic engineering from Cardiff University (2001).
I completed my FRCS (Trauma and Orthopaedics) in 2002 and have undertaken two fellowship posts, a lower limb arthroplasty fellowship (2004/5), and a knee soft tissue and arthroplasty fellowship at Avon Orthopaedic Centre, Southmead Hospital (2009/10), with two consultants covering the full spectrum of knee surgery including cartilage, soft tissue, ligaments, partial knee replacements, revision knee surgery including use of mega prosthesis. It is one of the two high volume and pioneering centres of unicompartmental knee replacement in UK and the unit with the maximum volume of lateral unicompartmental replacement. My research topic was effect of age and BMI on the longevity of unicompartmental knee replacement and I presented my findings at the Combined Orthopaedic Meeting in Glasgow, 2010.
I keep my knowledge and skills updated by attending specialist society meetings, conferences, workshops, seminars and discussions with my peers. I also teach at registrar training workshops and GP training days.
