He works at Dorset County Hospital, where he serves as Orthopaedic Clinical Lead for Trauma and Hip Fractures, and also consults privately at The Winterbourne Hospital in Dorchester, where he welcomes both insured and self-funding patients.
Mr Wek offers evidence-based treatments including hip replacement, revision hip surgery, knee replacement, and hip injections. He is among the few surgeons in Dorset skilled in minimally invasive small-scar hip replacement techniques, such as SPAIRE and piriformis-sparing approaches, which support faster recovery and improved post-operative comfort. His patient-centred philosophy emphasises clear communication, calm and compassionate care, and ensuring each patient fully understands their treatment options.
With over 16 years of clinical experience, Mr Wek completed dual fellowship training in complex hip and knee surgery, including the Royal Bournemouth Complex Primary and Revision Hip Fellowship and the Revision Hip & Knee Arthroplasty Fellowship at St George’s Hospital, London. He also served as an Honorary Clinical Lecturer at Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry and regularly teaches on national and regional orthopaedic training programmes. His research contributions include international conference presentations and publications, as well as a co-authored chapter on minimally invasive hip arthroplasty in Hip Arthroplasty: Current and Future Directions (2023).

My last appointment with Mr Wek was 8 weeks post op following my hip replacement. I was so excited to tell him how my life had changed since the surgery. I’m totally pain free, go to the gym twice a week, can go on lovely long dog walks. After years of pain and not being able to lead my life as I wanted this was truly a transformation for me. Mr Wek has been so kind and caring throughout my treatment and I always had the utmost trust in him as my surgeon.
Very professional and understanding! Explained everything I needed to know
Seen on time , left feeling that everything was explained to me clearly.
My experience with Mr. Wek, when I saw him about my concerns for a knee replacement he made me feel relaxed and comfortable and gave me reassurance.
Brilliant from the first consultation to the final one this week.
On time very clear and precise on explaining all about my new knee joint and what to expect going forward
Felt very much at ease, Mr Wek was assuring polite and I felt very confident in him and his proposals for treatment.
Having had a hip replacement was the best thing I’ve ever done, Mr Wek was very very good throughout my stay in hospital and I cannot thank him enough to give me a new lease of life. Thank you so very much, Mr. Wek
Caesar is an outstanding hip surgeon with a genuine passion for patient care. During our training together, I was continually impressed and inspired by his dedication and exceptional bedside manner. He consistently went the extra mile to ensure the wellbeing and comfort of his patients. Caesar is a gifted surgeon whose technical skills are remarkable. He has a strong interest in the integration of robotics and augmented reality technologies in hip surgery, and his forward-thinking approach greatly enhances surgical precision and patient outcomes. I am happy to recommend anyone to be treated ...
