About Mr Nev Davies

Nev is a Consultant in Trauma and Orthopaedic (T&O) surgery working in Reading, UK. His NHS practice is based at The Royal Berkshire Hospital and he has worked there for the past 12 years. He consults privately from Spire Dunedin Hospital (Children & Adults) and Circle Hospital (Adults), both in Reading. His specialist interests are in children‘s orthopaedics and adult knee surgery. Nev's practice manager is Debbie Rollason who has worked closely with him for the last 8 years.

Career

In the year 2000, after 6 years of study and an intercalated BSc. in Neuroscience, Nev qualified as a Doctor from St Marys Hospital Medical School in London. In 2001 he completed his house jobs at St. Mary's and Wexham Park Hospital, and then started a 3-year basic surgical rotation in and around London. This included T&O jobs at Kingston Hospital and at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital in Stanmore. Nev then spent 6 years on the Oxford Specialist Registrar Rotation in T&O incorporating a children's fellowship at Westmead Kids in Sydney, Australia. He started his Consultant post at the Royal Berkshire Hospital in 2010 on his return from Australia and has built up a thriving private practice in Berkshire over the past decade. Nev is referred, and has treated patients from all over the UK. However, he works mainly within Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Hampshire, Wiltshire and Oxfordshire.

Current clinical  practice

Nev has an interesting clinical practice as he treats all musculoskeletal conditions seen in children, as well as adult knee conditions. He is one of only a handful of surgeons in the UK who has expertise in treating knee problems in patients of all ages, from new-borns to elderly patients. He is often referred difficult cases for second opinions from all over the UK as well as overseas. Nev's other passion is in the prevention of children's sports injuries and is a trustee for Power Up to Play (www.poweruptoplay.org) a national charity tackling the exponential rise of knee injuries in young people.

Outside work

Out of work, Nev's busy life revolves around his extremely active family. He has a energetic family life with 3 sports mad boys 13,11 and 9 and a very sporty wife who is a GB triathlete and competes in Ironman events around the world. She is also a Consultant at the Royal Berkshire Hospital. Although Nev's sporting love is rugby and in particular supporting Wales in Cardiff, he gets his current competitive buzz from playing golf.

A delightful and very skilful Surgeon who was recommended by a friend who also has a full knee replacement operation. His nickname is "Nev the Knee" which is well deserved.

I think the best praise I can give is to say that I do not in any way regret self funding for my procedure. From reception on my first visit right to my discharge early, I have been impressed. The outcome for me has been better than I ever hoped for.
