About Mr Sabur Malek

Mr Sabur Malek is a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon in the West and North Midlands, specialising in minimally invasive hip and knee replacement surgery combined with Enhanced Recovery Protocols. These techniques together facilitate faster recovery, quicker rehabilitation, lower complication rates, and improved patient satisfaction. Mr Malek performs 570+ joint replacements annually.

After earning his medical degree (MBBS) in 1998 from Baroda, India, Mr Malek completed his junior doctor training in the Mersey Deanery. He then received formal Orthopaedic Registrar training in Wales and obtained his Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons (Tr&Orth) in 2009. Mr Malek further honed his skills in joint replacement and reconstruction surgery during his fellowship at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital, Stanmore. He began his consultant career in Liverpool before settling in Stafford. Until the end of 2018, his NHS base was University Hospitals of North Midlands, Stoke on Trent. He has since transitioned to full-time private practice, serving both private patients and those through the NHS Choose and Book system.

Mr Malek's expertise has earned him several accolades, including the award for 'The Best Trauma Orthopaedic Surgeon in Staffordshire 2018' by Global Health and Pharma Awards, and the 'Hip and Knee Surgeon of the Year 2024' at the same awards. Additionally, he received the iWantGreatCare certificate of excellence in 2022, 2023 and  2024 for delivering outstanding care.

Mr Malek was extremely clear, positive and professional. I had heard very good reviews about him from other people who had received surgery from him and he lived up to them. My experience from start to finish of my assessment, treatment and follow up appointments have been excellent.

There is nothing about Mr Maleks professionalism paired with politeness and empathy not to like, he is an amazing surgeon with amazing results his incisions are extremely neat and heal well. I coula not have wished for a better outcome with my hip-replacement... Thank you.

My recent visit was a six month follow up for a full replacement knee operation to my left knee. All parts of the process were conducted with excellent professionalism. More importantly I was given great reassurance and confidence that any issues I had with my replacement knee were part of the healing process and would improve even more over time. As for my total knee replacement operation, I am pleased that it was undertaken. Even though it's only been six months l have seen improvement in pain free movement which will only get better.

A very prompt professional service. I can't believe how much improved my knee is after only five months. My pain was well managed and the physio along with the exercises definitely helped. Mr Malek was spot on with his diagnosis and treatment.
