About
Mr Thompson started as an orthopaedic consultant at University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire in April 2005 working as a specialist knee surgeon. He spent three and a half years as the department's clinical director but is now able to concentrate solely on clinical work. His elective practice covers all areas of knee surgery from arthroscopic (keyhole surgery) to revision knee replacement. This includes treatment for meniscal tears, meniscal repair and transplantation, ACL and other ligament reconstruction, cartilage repair surgery, osteochondral allograft transplantation, realignment osteotomy and multi-ligament reconstructions, as well as partial and total knee replacements, including robotic-arm assisted joint replacements using Mako SmartRobotics™, which provides a more precise replacement and soft tissue balancing ensuring optimum functional outcome for patients.
He treats both adults and children.
Mr Thompson is committed to surgical training, teaching regularly on national and international courses, as well as teaching medical students from Warwick University.
