He has expertise in performing procedures such as total hip and knee replacements, revisional hip and knee replacements, knee arthroscopy, joint injections, and treating injuries.

Mr Sahemey qualified in 2013 from Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry with distinction, and underwent specialist orthopaedic training in the West Midlands, where he gained experience in typical and complex surgery for the hips and knees. In the course of his training, Mr Sahemey became a member and eventually a fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons. He has completed additional fellowship training at the ENDO-Klinik in Hamburg, Germany, and at the Centre for Hip Surgery of the Wrightington Hospital in pelvic and revision arthroplasty.

Mr Sahemey is the lead for complex joint replacement and periprosthetic joint injection at the University Hospital Birmingham. His approach to care prioritises day-case surgery, enhanced recovery, and utilising minimally invasive techniques. Many of the cases he comes across involve revision surgery or dysfunctional joint prosthetics.

Alongside his clinical practice, he partakes in research, and has published articles in peer-reviewed journals and has presented at both national and international conferences. Mr Sahemey mentors trainees and student surgeons as a member of the British Hip Society.
