Global expertise driving advanced orthopaedic care
At Orthopaedic Innovation, we are committed to providing the most advanced hip and knee replacement surgery in the UK. One of the ways we achieve this is by working with international orthopaedic surgeons, sharing knowledge across borders, and staying at the forefront of global medical innovation.
Why International Collaboration Matters in Orthopaedic Surgery
Orthopaedic surgery is constantly evolving. Techniques that are routine in one country may be groundbreaking in another. By working closely with international experts, we:
- Gain early access to new surgical methods and minimally invasive techniques
- Evaluate the latest implant designs and joint replacement materials
- Compare our patient outcomes with international benchmarks to improve results
This approach means our patients benefit from the best available treatments in hip replacement, knee replacement, and joint preservation surgery.
Examples of Innovation in Practice
Through our global network, we have introduced:
- Computer-assisted surgical planning from leading US and European centres
- Advanced implant materials such as ceramic-on-ceramic bearings and cross-linked polyethylene
These innovations are now standard practice in our clinic, delivering measurable improvements in patient outcomes.
Global Lectures and Visiting Surgeons
International collaboration isn’t one-way. Our surgeons also teach worldwide, hosting lectures and workshops, as well as welcoming visiting surgeons to London. This global training exchange allows us to:
- Refine minimally invasive techniques for faster recovery
- Develop patient-specific planning and personalised care
- Enhance outcomes in hip and knee surgery
Our consultants, Professor Adrian Wilson and Dr Kristian Kley, are active on the international stage. They regularly present at leading orthopaedic conferences in Europe, North America, and Asia, where they teach advanced surgical techniques in ligament reconstruction, osteotomy, and minimally invasive hip replacement.
In addition, we regularly invite surgeons from around the world to observe live operations in our theatres. This two-way exchange ensures our techniques continue to evolve while sharing our innovations globally.
