Professional statement
Mr Pramod Achan is a leading consultant orthopaedic surgeon based in London, specialising in hip and knee surgery, arthroscopy, lower limb joint replacement, and sports surgery.
He started his medical training at St Bartholomew's Hospital Medical School, where he continued training in the professional surgical unit and orthopaedic department. It was here that Mr Achan discovered his passion for orthopaedics and orthopaedic surgery. His officer postings were carried out at various hospitals afterwards where he was under the mentorship of renowned surgeons in the orthopaedic field. Mr Achan's post-fellowship specialised training experience spans all over the world, from the UK to the USA to Australia.
After these years training, he held the position of clinical director at Barts Health NHS Trust for five years, and has been directing training programmes in orthopaedics on the prestigious Percival Pott training programme for nearly 10 years, which is one of the oldest orthopaedic training programmes in the UK. Currently Mr Achan is a department chair and consultant orthopaedic surgeon at OneWelback and continues to hold his role as consultant orthopaedic surgeon at The Princess Grace Hospital and Barts and The London Health NHS Trust Hospital.
In 2009, Mr Achan was one of two upcoming 'Best of British' surgeons chosen to represent the British Hip Society Travelling Fellowship to the USA, as a guest of the American Hip Society. Here he lectured at places such as Stanford University, Mayo Clinic, and Harvard. In 2014, Mr Achan was awarded the American-British-Canadian Travelling Fellowship - the most distinguished award in orthopaedics - by the American Orthopaedics Association. Mr Achan lectured at institutes like Harvard, NYU, Duke, Emory, McMaster, The Campbell Clinic, and Vanderbilt while he was travelling under this award.
Mr Achan can still be found dividing his time between lecturing, contributing articles in his field, and directing orthopaedic training programmes alongside his clinical work. He is dedicated to education of his trainees, as well as himself. He is actively involved with research at Queen Mary University, the William Harvey Institute, and the Trauma Clinical Academic Unit. Mr Achan's research interests include trauma and outcomes in high energy trauma, and basic science of early osteoarthritis and its intervention.

I cannot speak highly enough of Mr Achan and his staff and the high quality of care he gave me from the minute I stepped foot into the hospital. He put my mind at ease, gave me the process and steps, and then the day of the operation made me feel comfortable and relaxed.
