About Mr Will Poole

Mr. Will Poole is an accomplished Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon at North Bristol NHS Trust, with an elective practice at the Avon Orthopaedic Centre and the Spire Hospital, Bristol . He specialises in primary and revision hip surgery, as well as managing pelvic and acetabular trauma and complex lower limb injuries.

In his current role, Mr. Poole is directly responsible for overseeing and delivering care to a diverse range of patients with complex needs, from those suffering from hip arthritis or failing hip replacements to individuals with pelvic fractures or limb-threatening injuries. He is dedicated to personalised care, tailoring assessments, operative or non-operative treatments, and rehabilitation plans to meet the unique requirements of each patient.

Mr. Poole graduated in medicine from University College London in 2010, having previously attained a BSc in Medical Sciences with Infection in 2008. He completed his higher surgical training in the Kent, Surrey, and Sussex rotation in 2020 before undertaking a fellowship in South Australia. At the Royal Adelaide Hospital, he provided specialised care in pelvic and acetabular trauma, complex limb trauma, and hip arthroplasty surgery, during which time he also gained accreditation in robotic hip surgery.

In addition to his clinical duties, Mr. Poole is actively involved in mentoring foundation doctors, postgraduate surgical trainees, as well as trauma and hip fellows in Bristol. He has contributed to the advancement of his field through numerous publications in peer-reviewed journals in both elective joint replacement surgery and trauma.

The whole experience was perfect, thank you, with an amazing end result, pain free. Will Poole is very professional, caring and, as I missed him on the day I left The Spire, he phoned me the following day to check how I was feeling. I have had my post op appointment where every thing is fine and Will discussed the process going forward to have my other hip replaced. I definitely hope that I will be seen by Will again.

I initially met with Will in early December soon after my injury which was November 30th. My physio referred me to Will and I booked a private consultation with him. I felt very reassured and well informed by Will's experience and knowledge with the injury I sustained, which was not a common injury. Will fully explained my options, surgery versus no surgery, and the expectations with both options. I had a few weeks to consider as having the surgery was time critical. I was extremely thankful that the surgery was booked and went ahead on the 3rd February.

Mr Poole is a lovely man, so easy to talk to, a very good listener. He also explains things very carefully, and gives a good clear way forward. I feel as if I am in good hands with him, and trust his diagnosis. I would happily recommend him to anyone looking for a good clinician in this field.

Everyone was very patient and kind, nurses were quick to respond when needing help. I was kept informed of everything that was going to happen the food was lovely and good choice of menu, even exchanged my choice of sweet which was fresh fruit (an apple, that i struggle to eat), for something more manageable.
