About Mr James Singleton

Mr James Singleton is an experienced Consultant Orthopaedic surgeon with a specialised focus on knee disorders. Fellowship-trained in both trauma surgery and knee surgery, he offers expert care for knee sports injuries, soft tissue issues, and provides comprehensive management for all stages of knee arthritis. His expertise includes joint preservation strategies, osteotomy (knee realignment surgery), and partial and full knee replacement surgeries.

Mr Singleton established his practice at Frimley Park Hospital in 2017, where he provided individualised care for a wide range of knee problems, from sports injuries to arthritis. In 2024, he retired from his NHS role as a trauma and knee surgeon to concentrate exclusively on knee surgery.

With a background as a British Army officer and orthopaedic consultant, Mr Singleton served for 25 years before retiring from his military career in early 2024. He has published research on both civilian and military trauma and has served as an orthopaedic surgeon on operational tours in Afghanistan and the Middle East.

Mr Singleton graduated from University College London Medical School in 2002. He completed his orthopaedic surgical training on the prestigious Southwest Thames rotation in London and Surrey, which included two years of full-time post-doctoral research, earning an MD in Bioengineering from Imperial College London in 2016.

His special interests include knee surgery, ACL reconstruction, knee ligament surgery, knee arthroscopy, meniscal surgery and repair, osteotomy, partial and total knee replacement, patellofemoral replacement, and knee injections such as Arthrosamid® for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis and non-operative management of knee disorders.

Arrived to a welcoming receptionist who clearly directed me to Mr Singleton’s waiting area. Slight delay waiting for my appointment (15 mins). Dr clearly described potential reasons for my issue, carried out a thorough review of my knee and then offered his solution. The injection processes was faultless, no pain, Dr using scar point for insertion made this pain free. Clearly described the potential issues and how to maintain the insertion site to prevent infection., follow up appointments were discussed and booked during the appointment. It was a pleasure to be looked after by Dr Singleton

I cannot stress how good my experience was seeing Mr Singleton. He was patient, explained everything to me in detail, answering all my questions and giving me confidence that my health was in my hands, with his expertise to help guide.

Mr Singleton has delivered a confident and thorough service to me from the outset. He has given me realistic and appropriate guidance for surgery and I feel confident that he is most definitely the right person for the job. We have discussed options and I have a plan. I am very happy with the service I have received from Mr Singleton and his team and am looking forward to my surgery and rehab process ahead.

After trying unsuccessfully to ignore my nagging knee pain I. Was getting out of the chair when it clicked and remained very painful thereafter. I decided to get a professional opinion and selected Mr James Singleton (James) as he specialised in knees and had extensive experience. Following a scan the issue and damage was clearly explained to me and options offered which James told me to take time to think about. I opted for a relatively new treatment called Arthrosamid which involved a painless injection under a local anaesthetic into the knee and 3 months later have gone from not being able to walk very far to 10,000 steps a day and am looking forward to further improvement in the coming months. I would highly recommend James and if I need the other knee done will certainly be contacting him. Thank you.
