About Mr Ali Raza

Mr. Ali Raza
Consultant Hip & Knee Surgeon | Specialist in Joint Replacement and
Complex Reconstruction

With over 1,000 successful hip and knee replacements to his name, Mr. Ali Raza is a leading consultant orthopaedic surgeon offering advanced, personalized care for patients seeking world-class joint replacement surgery. With more than 20 years of experience and a strong reputation for exceptional patient outcomes, Mr. Raza is a trusted name in the treatment of arthritic and complex hip and knee conditions.

Unmatched Expertise in Joint Replacement

Mr. Raza trained at some of the UK’s most prestigious orthopaedic institutions. He completed his core surgical training in Cambridge and Manchester, followed by advanced orthopaedic training at the Sir John Charnley Centre of Excellence for Hip Surgery, Wrightington — a globally renowned hub for joint replacement innovation. There, he worked alongside internationally recognized surgeons, mastering techniques focused on enhanced recovery, long-lasting implant performance, and optimal functional outcomes.

He completed his higher surgical training in Newcastle upon Tyne, where he also held a lecturer post at North Tees University Hospital, contributing to the education of future orthopaedic surgeons. He then pursued subspecialist fellowship training in Aberdeen, focusing on complex joint pathology, including dysplasia, AVN (collapsed joints), severe deformities, and revision surgery for failed implants.

Complex & Custom Joint Surgery

Mr. Raza performs all forms of hip and knee replacement — including cemented,
uncemented, and hybrid techniques — with a meticulous, patient-specific approach. 

He is:

  • One of few surgeons in his NHS Trust performing complex revision surgery,  including acetabular and femoral reconstruction and periprosthetic fracture  management
  • Among the few orthopaedic surgeons in Scotland accredited to offer Conformis custom-made knee replacements, tailored to each patient’s unique anatomy for superior comfort, function, and longevity
  • A pioneer in Bariatric Arthroplasty, providing safe, effective joint replacement for patients with high BMI — an area often underserved in traditional practice

Precision, Recovery & Results

Mr.Raza’s surgical practice is grounded in cutting-edge technology, meticulous planning, and evidence-based protocols that reduce pain, promote faster recovery, and restore quality of life. He is particularly known for:

  • Delivering high-functioning, long-lasting joint replacements
  • Using minimally invasive techniques where appropriate
  • Providing exceptional outcomes even in complex and revision cases

A Personalised, Patient-Centred Experience

Known for his clarity and compassion, Mr. Raza ensures each patient receives a clear, jargon-free understanding of their condition and options. Whether recommending non-surgical interventions or advanced surgical treatment, he creates bespoke care plans that respect each patient’s goals, lifestyle, and health needs.

Teaching, Research & Recognition

Mr. Raza is a Clinical Senior Lecturer at the University of Glasgow and actively involved in training the next generation of orthopaedic surgeons. His research has been recognized nationally, including receiving the British Orthopaedic Association’s Best Translational Research Prize at the British Hip Society Conference in 2018.

He is a proud member of both the British Orthopaedic Association (BOA) and the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS), ensuring he remains at the
forefront of international best practice.

He fully explained the procedure regarding knee replacement. His statistics in perceived success of operation by patients was reassuring. However his explanation about muscles etc tightening after operation and my continual need to stretch them was the most memorable piece of advice. My rehab therefore was done very thoroughly.

I cannot speak highly enough of Mr Ail Raza. He performed two separate surgeries on me; a hip replacement surgery and then a knee replacement surgery ,eleven weeks later. Both surgeries have been very successful. Mr Raza treated me with kindness and respect at all times. He explained clearly what the procedures entailed and answered all my questions. I had the most wonderful care by Mr Raza and his team at King's Park hospital.

Sometimes life brings us to a moment where we simply have to pause, take a deep breath, and recognise just how far we have travelled. Today was one of those beautiful milestones for me. Six weeks ago, I underwent a knee replacement, beginning a journey of healing that has required patience, trust, surrender and allowing my body the time and space it needed to recover. There have been challenges along the way, but today I find myself looking back with an incredibly grateful heart. Today I reached another little piece of freedom ~ I got back into my car! This may seem like such a simple thing, but after six weeks of recovery, it felt enormous. It felt like independence, movement and a new chapter beginning. And then today also came my final appointment with my Consultant, Mr Ali Raza, at Ross Hall Hospital. I was absolutely delighted to hear how pleased he was with my progress and that he was very happy with the work he had done. I cannot express how grateful I am to this Man. From the very beginning, I felt that I was in exceptionally skilled and compassionate hands. His expertise, professionalism, kindness and gentle manner gave me enormous reassurance throughout my journey. There is something very special about a person who combines such outstanding surgical skill with genuine warmth and humanity. Thank you, Mr. Raza for giving me back my movement and, in so many ways, a little more freedom. Thank you for your skill, thank you for your care, thank you for your kindness and gentleness. And thank you for helping me to begin this next chapter with confidence and ho...

This time last year I was a wheelchair user and had been for a long time. My case was complex and I had been rejected as unsuitable for surgery by other consultants. My family had accepted that I could no longer suffer the pain I was in. I had come to the end of my road. Mr Raza came up with a plan for me, he knew he could help me. My surgery took all day. Last week I had my post op review, I walked into my appointment pain free. If I live another 30 years it is because of Mr Raza and his skill set. I will be forever grateful. Mr Raza is exceptional.

I recently underwent a hip replacement with Mr Raza, and the level of care I received was exceptional. From the very first consultation, he took the time to explain every aspect of the procedure clearly and thoughtfully. I always understood why certain approaches were being recommended, and that gave me real confidence going into surgery. What stood out most was his manner which was positive, encouraging, and genuinely patient. I never felt rushed at any stage. My questions were welcomed, my opinions were listened to, and decisions were discussed collaboratively. That made a huge difference to my overall experience. The surgery itself went smoothly, and I felt fully supported throughout the recovery process. I’m extremely grateful for his professionalism, skill, and the reassurance he provided at every step. I would highly recommend him to anyone considering hip replacement surgery.
