Joint Motion Healthcare
He specialises in adult hip surgery, and adolescent and young hip surgery. He is highly experienced, having been a consultant for over five years, performing hip replacements, hip arthroscopy, femoral and pelvic osteotomies to gain the best functional outcome for his patients. He also treats paediatric orthopaedic conditions including elective and trauma cases.
He performs thorough evaluations and offers his patients the best treatments, including paediatric patients who may have conditions from birth that require ongoing treatment. These conditions include hip dysplasia, Perthes disease, SCFE (slipped capital femoral epiphysis), FAI (Femoro-acetabular impingement), AVN (avascular necrosis) and hip osteoarthritis . Surgical management of these conditions can include hip arthoscopy (key hole surgery), hip osteotomies (bone realignment surgery), and hip replacements.
Mr Holton completed his medical training in 2002 at the University of Leeds Medical School before undertaking basic surgical training and joining the Royal College of Surgeons (Edinburgh) in 2005. He went on to complete further specialist orthopaedic training and became a fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons (Edinburgh) in 2012. He has undertaken extensive training in his field, including a specialist international hip fellowship in Denmark, which allowed him to gain further exposure to hip replacement and hip arthroscopy, and he gained expertise in minimally invasive PAO (peri-acetabular osteotomy) under the world-renowned PAO surgeon, Prof. Kjeld Soballe. Prior to his Danish fellowship, he also undertook a nationally recognised fellowship under Mr Jon Conroy in Harrogate, UK, which focused on hip arthroscopy and total hip replacement
In addition to his practice, Mr Holton is active in the field of research, with a strong research background founded on his MSc (Mechanical Engineering), where he investigated the use of bone graft in total hip replacement in 2012. He also supervises an NIHR-approved research fellow whilst being the principal investigator on three NIHR-approved national studies.
