Orthopaedic Specialists brings together a team of leading knee experts from across Europe, who are all global leaders in their respective fields and have been instrumental in developing many of the ground-breaking treatments they use. Working individually or as a team, patients can be reassured that they will get the most appropriate treatment.
Professor Adrian Wilson is a world-leading knee and sports injury specialist who has pioneered a number of evidence-based techniques for knee preservation and repair. These include new, minimally invasive procedures for knee realignment (osteotomy) and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) repair.
Professor Wilson and Mr Raghbir Khakha have together developed a revolutionary way of carrying out knee replacements, offering patients less pain, a quicker recovery and shorter operating time. They regularly work as a team, treating patients with osteoarthritis, sports injuries and run dedicated clinics for children’s knee problems at The Children’s Knee Clinic at The Portland Hospital for Women and Children in London.
Mr Ronald van Heerwaarden is a worldwide authority with an international practice specialising in osteotomy surgery. He is also a leading specialist in limb deformity correction.
Professor Philip Schoettle is an internationally recognised expert in reconstructive knee surgery, and is known most widely for his surgical expertise in treating kneecap (patella) dislocation and instability.
Mr Kristian Kley is known worldwide for his pioneering new techniques in knee osteotomy surgery, many of which have become accepted practice across the globe. Based in Hannover, Germany, he brings his vast experience to the Orthopaedic Specialists team.
Together, Professor Wilson, Mr van Heerwaarden, Mr Kley and Mr Khakha have set up the London Knee Osteotomy Centre, which brings together leading osteotomy surgeons from across Europe, all passionate about, and dedicated to, joint preservation.
