About

Mr Kash Akhtar is a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon specialising in knee injuries and treatments. He studied at Imperial College, graduating with a Distinction in Surgery and completed a sub-specialty fellowship in knee surgery (sports injuries, trauma and joint replacement) at Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre, Oxford. He was subsequently awarded the prestigious Winston Churchill Fellowship and spent 6 months in international centres of orthopaedic excellence across the U.S. He has given over 100 international presentations and has received multiple prizes and awards.

Mr Akhtar has been a Consultant Trauma & Orthopaedic Surgeon at Barts Health NHS Trust since 2014, one of the busiest hospitals in the UK, which receives complex tertiary referrals from a broad area. He has particular expertise in sports injuries, arthroscopic knee surgery, meniscal surgery/repair, cartilage injuries, knee ligament reconstruction, realignment surgery, partial and total knee replacement. However, his overriding philosophy is only to use surgery when absolutely necessary or as a last resort when all suitable non-surgical treatments (including physiotherapy, activity modification, exercise prescription, orthotics, braces, medications and guided injections) have been tried appropriately.

Mr Akhtar has completed two additional degrees in surgical education and training, and a Fellowship in Medical Education, Leadership and Management. He is an Associate Professor (Reader) in Orthopaedic Surgery & Surgical Education at Barts and the London School of Medicine & Dentistry, QMUL where he is the Course Director for the International Masters in Orthopaedic Trauma Science. He is the Training Programme Director for the Royal London Higher Surgical Training Rotation and an Honorary Senior Fellow at the University of Melbourne in Australia.

He is one of the founders of orthohub (www.orthohub.xyz) and is host of the award-winning orthohub see one / do one podcast (freely available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and YouTube)  that has been downloaded over a quarter of a million times in 140 countries around the world.
