About Mr Vivek Gulati

Mr. Gulati is a specialist hip & knee surgeon with extensive experience in treating the whole spectrum of hip and knee problmes. His practice mainly focuses on degenerative conditions, joint replacement surgeries and sports injuries.

He strives to deliver the highest standards of patient care by using the most up to date evidence based technologies with a kind, compassionate bedside manner. His operative practice focuses on hip, knee, partial knee replacement and arthroscopic surgery- with an additional interest in revision (re-do) surgery. His philosophy is centred around delivering the best possible surgical outcome only when all non-operative conservative measures have been exhausted. A range of modern biologic non-operative treatments are used for symptomatic joints that are not severe enough to pursue a surgical route.

His entire medical school training was undertaken at Cambridge University. He was successful in obtaining the Rolleston prize which led to a surgical internship at Harvard University's Massachusetts General Hospital. His orthopaedic Registrar training was undertaken via the highly competitive Imperial College North West Thames Programme. He carried out novel biomechanical research during this time using three-dimensional gait analysis to look at reasons why Osteoarthritis progresses in certain individuals only,

His research work has been published in over 30 international orthopaedic journals, such as the Bone & Joint Journal, Skeletal Radiology, Hip International, Gait & Posture, Clin Orthopaedic Related Research, and the Journal of Trauma. He was delighted to be invited to present his work at over 30 national and international conferences.

Mr. Gulati completed fellowships at the Royal Bournemouth Hospital (which is renowned for its excellence in this area of care) and St. Michael's Hospital in Toronto (a world-leading institution). Outstanding feedback from students and colleagues for medical education resulted in him being awarded an Honorary Lectureship at Imperial College London.

I had meniscus surgery elsewhere in November last year. I attended today as I'm still having ongoing issues with pain and swelling. Mr Gulati listened when I explained my issues and actually agreed . For the 1st time since having surgery I actually felt like someone listened to me and heard what I was experiencing

Fantastic professionalism from Mr Gulati. It’s my second hip operation and I was slightly nervous, even though I had been through it before. I felt safe in his hands and was absolutely assured about the procedure and aftermath. He visited me afterwards to explain how the surgery went and how the hip looked. I feel very confident about a full recovery and that the hip replacement will be a great success Thank you Mr Gulati.
