He performs a high volume of hip and knee replacement procedures annually, alongside partial knee replacements and arthroscopic interventions, with a focus on improving functional outcomes and supporting rapid recovery. Mr Pegrum has a particular research interest in optimising postoperative recovery and enhancing surgical techniques to improve patient outcomes. He has published widely in peer-reviewed journals and continues to contribute to ongoing research in orthopaedic innovation and rehabilitation.
