Professional statement

Mr Ricci Plastow is a leading consultant trauma and orthopaedic surgeon based in London. His areas of expertise include hip replacement, knee replacement, ACL reconstruction, meniscal surgery, cartilage repair, joint preservation through osteotomy, patellofemoral stabilisation, and robotic-assisted surgery.

Mr Plastow, who consults privately at Outpatients and Diagnostics and at The Princess Grace Hospital, originally qualified with an MBBS from The University of Manchester in 2008. He completed nine years of extensive hip and knee surgery training, spanning from 2010 to 2019, before going on to accomplish two prestigious fellowships: an international fellowship in Canada in soft tissue knee sports injuries and a clinical fellowship in London in arthroplasty and robotic surgery.

With a commitment to surgical excellence, Mr Plastow also holds fellowship to the Royal College of Surgeons of England since 2017, reflecting his adherence to the best practices in the field of trauma and orthopaedic surgery. His additional roles as the training lead for the RCS robotic and digital assisted surgery division and the research lead for the British Orthopaedic Sports Trauma and Arthroscopy Association, further reflect his prominent figure in the development and the use of digital-assisted healthcare technology.

Alongside his clinical responsibilities, Mr Plastow plays an important role in the medical education of the next generation of orthopaedic professionals as well, as the lower limb teaching lead for the MSc Orthopaedic Course at University College London.

  • I am very pleased Mr Plastow carried out my procedure. From the first time I met him he was supremely professional and knowledgeable giving me confidence. He spend time explaining the MRI of my injury describing how he was going to carry out the procedure. Highly recommended.

  • Excellent and informative appointment; Mr Plastow is an excellent communicator and explains a lot of the background information to the specific problem you're asking about. Very thorough in looking at the whole history and clear in giving advice. Thanks, Ricci.

  • I was incredibly impressed with Mr Plastow. Having been told by a previous surgeon that the tear in my meniscus was not repairable I approached Mr Plastow for a second opinion. He confirmed he was able to repair it and the surgery all went to plan. I could not be more thankful!
