Professional statement

Mr Sunil Kumar is an exceptionally highly trained and experienced Consultant Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgeon who practices across London and Essex. His specialist interests are with knee surgery and sports injuries; he regularly performs knee surgeries, including arthroscopic surgeries and knee replacements, as well as osteoarthritis management procedures and joint replacements. Furthermore, he also provides paediatric orthopaedic care.

His many years of medical training began in 1989 at the London Hospital Medical College. After this, he underwent basic surgical training through prestigious fellowships followed by specialist training in orthopaedic surgery from 1994 to 2000. In 1999, he pursued further specialist training into knee and sports trauma with a fellowship in New Zealand and Australia.

As well as dedicating his career to providing outstanding patient care, he also contributes to his field through research. This research investigates aspects such as cartilage transplantation, improving post-surgical recovery and biological treatments for arthritis. Among his many notable achievements is the development of rapid rehabilitation programmes for traumatic osteochondral lesions that require surgery, cartilage transplantation, cruciate ligament reconstruction and multi-ligament stabilisation.

As part of his commitment to high-quality patient care, Mr Kumar ensures he stays up to date with the latest technologies. This includes the latest knee replacement techniques such as 3D printed personalised knee replacements and robotic surgery.
