About
Mr George Whitwell is a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon with a specialist interest in hip and knee surgery. His expertise includes primary and revision hip and knee replacements for conditions such as osteoarthritis, as well as minimally invasive knee arthroscopy (keyhole surgery). Appointed to Chapel Allerton Hospital in Leeds in 2012, Mr Whitwell provides NHS care through Leeds Teaching Hospitals and also sees private patients at Joint Motion Healthcare, Nuffield Health Leeds Hospital, and Spire Leeds Hospital.
Mr Whitwell completed his medical degree at Leicester University Medical School and undertook specialist orthopaedic training in Yorkshire.
