About Mr Tamer Sweed

Mr. Tamer Sweed is a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon specialising exclusively in knee surgery and lower limb sports injuries. He practices within the NHS at University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Trust and is renowned for his expertise in all areas of knee surgery. His elective practice focuses on knee osteotomies (realignment surgery), partial and total knee replacement, and ligament reconstruction.

Mr. Sweed graduated from Alexandria University in Egypt in 2001 and completed his orthopaedic training there before moving to the UK in 2013. He obtained his FRCS in Trauma and Orthopaedics in 2016 and has since furthered his specialisation through a series of prestigious fellowship programs. These include the BOA Knee Osteotomy Fellowship at Northcumbria NHS Trust, a Sports Knee Fellowship at University Hospitals of Derby & Burton, a Lower Limb Arthroplasty Fellowship at Royal Berkshire Hospital, and a Knee Fellowship at University Hospital Birmingham.

Passionate about education, Mr. Sweed co-founded the Birmingham Knee School (BKS), which runs an annual course designed for trainees and knee fellows. Through BKS, he is committed to disseminating cutting-edge knowledge and skills, promoting innovation and excellence in knee surgery, and mentoring the next generation of orthopaedic surgeons.

Mr Swede was very clear and straightforward from the start about the surgery and expectations afterwards. As I have some understanding of anatomy he was very down to earth with me about all aspect which I very much appreciated. I’m very happy with the post op results and have returned to normal activities a lot faster than anticipated due to his excellent work

I honestly can’t thank Mr Sweed enough for everything he’s done for me. From the very first appointment, he made me feel calm, listened to, and completely confident in the process. He explained everything clearly and never made me feel rushed or unsure. The surgery went perfectly, and my recovery so far has been better than I ever expected. What really stood out was how reassuring and encouraging he’s been — not just fixing my knee, but also giving me the belief that I can get back to my best again. That confidence means everything during rehab. He’s an incredible surgeon and a genuinely caring person. I feel very lucky to have been under his care and I’ll always be grateful. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough to anyone facing ACL surgery.
