About Mr Ciaran McGarvey

Mr Ciaran McGarvey is an experienced consultant orthopaedic surgeon specialising exclusively in knee surgery. He offers treatment for sports injuries and chronic conditions affecting the knee. He is a consultant at Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust (Heatherwood and Wexham Park) and works privately at The Princess Margaret Hospital in Windsor and Spire Thames Valley Hospital.

Mr McGarvey graduated from Cambridge University and completed his specialist orthopaedic training at Guy’s, King’s, and St Thomas’s Hospitals in London. He gained further specialist experience working with two internationally recognised knee surgeons: Professor Ponky Firer in Johannesburg and Mr Tim Spalding in Coventry. He served as matchday team doctor for Saracens Rugby Club from 2012-2016.

Mr McGarvey will always try to find a non-surgical solution for your knee problem, often in combination with a network of local physiotherapists. Where surgery is needed, Mr McGarvey performs knee ligament reconstruction, meniscus repair, and cartilage repair.  He offers joint-preserving surgery for early knee osteoarthritis, such as osteotomy and focal resurfacing. For established arthritis, he performs joint replacement surgery including partial and total knee replacement. He is certified to perform MAKO robotic-assisted partial and total knee replacement.

Mr McGarvey is a member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, British Orthopaedic Association, and British Medical Association.

My recent visit was as previous visits. Mr McGarvey has a pleasant relaxed manner that makes it easy to ask him any question knowing you will get a helpful answer, that is well and clearly explained. His overall manner makes him approachable, any question or concern is ok.

After initially seeing another consultant, I decided to transfer my care to Ciaran McGowan following a strong recommendation from a physiotherapist, and I am so pleased I did. I underwent a robotic-assisted total knee replacement, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations. Mr McGowan was professional, reassuring, and took the time to explain everything clearly, giving me complete confidence in the procedure. The operation itself was a great success. The incision was incredibly neat, and my recovery after surgery was much easier than I anticipated. The whole process felt smooth, and the results have been excellent. Choosing Mr McGarvey was one of the best healthcare decisions I have made, and I am extremely grateful for the excellent care I received.
