About Mr Ravi Ray

Mr Ravi Ray completed his undergraduate studies in 2001 and then trained in London and the South East of England. He is currently a consultant at Basildon & Thurrock University Hospitals since April 2015 and offers a thorough upper limb service. During his training, he obtained a fellowship in upper limb surgery from Southampton University Hospital and Guy's & St Thomas' Hospitals. Additionally, he also holds a Diploma in the field of Sports Medicine and is working towards a Masters in Clinical Education based at King's College in London. With a keen interest in sports medicine, he is looking after amateur boxers as an accredited England Boxing Doctor and professional rugby players at the London Irish Rugby Football Club.

His practice involves the latest techniques in keyhole and open surgery and he keeps himself updated through regular national and international meetings, conferences and case discussions with colleagues. A very enthusiastic medical educator, Mr Ray is highly active in national recruitment of junior doctors into Orthopaedics. He regularly scrutinises his own practice through auditing and has written many pieces of research, presenting some of this internationally.

He finds the opportunity to look after patients in his clinic very rewarding and he is a very approachable and kind doctor. Mr Ray also has an excellent working relationship with the physiotherapy team.

During the past 4 years I have been a patient of Mr. Ravi Ray & during that time, in July 2023 to my right shoulder Mr. Ray performed a Decompression, & in the October a Rotator Cuff Repair together with a Total Shoulder Replacement, & in the November a Carpal Tunnel Release to my right hand. In December 2025 to my left shoulder Mr. Ray performed a Decompression & also a Carpal Tunnel Release to my left hand. In July this year to my left shoulder Mr. Ray reinforced the underside of my left Rotator Cuff & also performed a Total Shoulder Replacement. I will forever be indebted to Mr. Ray, he has 'rebuilt' my shoulders with his amazing expertise & skill, & my recoveries have been excellent, so much so that I am now lifting daily a 3kg weight with my right arm & in just 3.5 months post op a 2kg weight with my left arm, & in addition I do further 5 specific shoulder exercises daily. I feel that I will now be able to return to the gym & it is my intention to do so in December, to swim again & in the Spring next year to return to golf. Mr. Ray's patience, understanding, kindness, empathy, caring & wonderful 'bedside manor' during these last 4 years have made a very difficult & painful period of my life so much easier to get through & to be able to bear bare. I have recommended Mr. Ray many times to family & friends, & I will always without reservation thoroughly recommend Mr. Ray to anyone with a shoulder health issue. Hilary T

Mr Ray was friendly, professional and informative from my very first consultation. He took the time to clearly explain what was causing the pain in my shoulder and talked me through the treatment options. Mr Ray performed arthroscopic surgery to treat the impingement, and the outcome has been excellent. I am now completely pain-free and have full movement in my shoulder. I genuinely could not have asked for better care, service or results. I would highly recommend Mr Ray.

I just had a steroid injection into my shoulder, but want to add a few more points. I honestly cannot put into words just how grateful I am to this lovely man for everything he has done for me. Mr Ravi Ray has helped me through several procedures, including arm surgery involving a plate, hand surgery involving rods, shoulder surgery and steroid injections. Throughout it all, his kindness, compassion, approachability and wonderful bedside manner have been second to none. He genuinely goes above and beyond, and I have always felt completely at ease and in the very best hands under his care. I cannot recommend Mr Ray highly enough, and I would like to thank him from the bottom of my heart for everything he has done for me. I’m certainly hoping I won’t need any further treatment, but should I ever need anything within his area of expertise again, I wouldn’t hesitate for a moment to return to him. A truly wonderful consultant and an equally wonderful human being. Thank you so much, Mr Ray!
